it can start a warming trend but we don't know if its the cause of global warming but as the atmosphere warms and glaciers melt the seas salinity grows weaker then the golf stream slows and if it stops completely the entire northern hemisphere would be thrown in to at least a short Glacial piroud the golf stream is what circulates heat from the equator up in to the northern latitudes
but is my opinion along with a grate many scientist that the fresh water that is interring the northern Atlantic is defiantly from Iceland's massive ice sheet why this is melting is the bone of contention i say its from increased volcanic activity by the way there is some evidence that volcanoes as well as tectonic activity is tied to the solar cycle and guess what its just happens to be on a dozey of a hot cycle right now we are getting particle out flows like we have never seen sins the sun was first monitored in the early 20th century
I would like to point out that the total Co2 in are atmosphere has not raisin magnificently in the last 10 years as a mater of fact its drooping for example the average Auto in 2009 puts out 95% less emissions then it did in 1960 the first year for recording of such facts and yes that even accounts for chinas hole sale abuse of the climate but that could Chang as they are building infrastructure as an amazing pace and are set to over take the US in road construction in less then 5 years and seeing as there country is many times the size of ares I'm sure if they don't get it together and soon on coming ICE AGE or not nun of us are going to be breathing by the time it gets here
now I'm not talking other kinds of emissions like Carbinmonoxside or nitrogen sulfur or any other just Co2
i wish we could convince the Chinese and Indians that they could grow even in the face of emissions controls we did it we have had some sort of legislation for almost 50 years and most of are super growth has occurred in that time we were hardly a super power in 1960 we barely had and army at that point in comparison to previous decades of WWII OK I'm veering of topic sorry for that but it is all inter related
