Assuming you mean magnetic north. I don't see what the magnetic poles have to do with any of this climate stuff. The other post was talking about the real poles moving (i.e. the Earth's rotational axis). That one's got a real argument - changes in mass distribution can affect that (melting polar ice, etc).
I for one look forward to a zero tilt axis. I don't like the seasons. 12C year-round is where it's at.
Yes i meant mag north, its a theory. It just hasn't been proven yet because we never seen it before.( F.u. Al gore, I'm starting my own cult!)
. And 16C is good for me.
Just a few things here.
1) The Earth doesn't rotate around it's magnetic poles.
2) Al Gore has nothing to do with the scientific consensus that humans are causing global climate change. He's just a politician who made a movie.
3) There is a lot more at stake than being able to wear shorts all year. You think refugees are a problem now?
What I don't get is the disbelief in science. It's what - 97% of the world's top minds all agree that humans are causing a warming of the planet? This is a massive problem, poised to cost trillions of dollars to fix as well as the associated issues with feeding people/etc.
If you could prove that humans aren't causing this problem, you'd be a global hero! Are these deniers trying to tell me that all of these experts are all just cash-strapped nerds with stock in solar panels and electric cars? The incentive is actually already there to say "hey look! It's NOT us!" and concentrate efforts on other solutions rather than cutting emissions.
It makes no sense, but then again I don't read the Sun or Rebel tabloids.
