As alluded to in our post, one important issue is the possibility that changes in El Nino may have significantly offset opposite temperature variations in the extratropics, moderating the influence of the extratropical «Little Ice Age» and «Medieval Warm Period» on hemispheric or global mean temperatures (e.g. Cobb et al (2003).
Dissimilar to the title, «Ice Age» is a warm - spirited tale of a group of animals so opposite of each other it leads to a burst of slapstick hilarity.
The film starred Chris Evans (Captain America) and Tilda Swinton (Trainwreck) as two people on the opposite sides of the socio - economic ladder, after a new ice age forced humanity onto a perpetually moving train in order to survive.

Demonstrate that warming in the past tells us that warming will continue into the future, despite the fact that a very similar trend in the opposite direction during the middle of the 20th century convinced so many that we were headed for another ice age.
Variations in the orbit cause opposite changes in the intensity of solar radiation during the summer between the Northern and Southern hemisphere, yet ice age terminations seem synchronous between hemispheres.
Not only does CO2 lag the temperature changes in the ice age, but the CO2 feedback is only capable of explaining 20 % to 40 % of the total temperature change and, in many timelines, the temperature trends and the CO2 trends are going in the opposite direction.
Reading up on the history of the Little Ice Age, the exact opposite becomes clear.
Anyway, today we try to explain the exact opposite: how northern hemisphere ice ages can quite suddenly weaken — at least in case of the last one, which had its cold peak around 18,000 years ago, after which atmospheric CO2 levels «suddenly» (over a millennium or so) rose by 30 per cent, and temperatures started to climb closer * to our current Holocene values.
The inference one was supposed to take, perhaps, was the equivalence between the effects of a few degrees cooling and a few degrees warming: so there would be something akin to the severity of an ice - age with a similar albeit opposite temperature change.
«By flipping the data opposite to the interpretation of Tiljander et al, Mann shows the Little Ice Age in Finland as being warmer than the MWP, 100 % opposite to the interpretation of the authors and the paleoclimate evidence.
[Quite the opposite effect may be the case: as the area of ice decreases (as it has been since the last ice age), so it is likely that the quantity of ice being melted by the ocean each year decreases, this would reduce a cooling effect on the ocean (entirely independent of AGW obviously) possible causing lower level temperature rises]
