Greenhouse Rock: Stone-Cold Data from Ancient Glacial Deposits May Help Reveal Future Climate Change Sep 25, 2009
Schaefer refers to the Laurentide Ice Sheet that covered the island of Manhattan, along with the northern third of the U.S. and most of Canada, until about 18,000 years ago when the great glacier finally retreated. It had spent more than 70,000 years affecting and reflecting the world's through periods of melting and growth. (Scientific American)

Cloud ships 'to deflect sun's rays and stop global warming'... Aug 8, 2009
" Even assuming that it will continue, that it is man-made, and that it will cause some problems, it is still likely that the cost is much less than the insane solutions we keep hearing about. James on August 08, 2009 at 06:52 AM Clearly global warming hasen't been thoroughly thought out as an multifaceted issue. For example we all know that plants convert CO2 into O2. Far to much attention has been paid to composition of the atmosphere rather than pure volume. Simply put, the atmosphere is... (The Drudge Report)
