He starts to address this question in his post, but dribbles off and shifts the focus to a couple of surveys that show people deeply care about global warming — even when there's abundant evidence that much of public attitude on climate is, as I've been saying, the equivalent of water sloshing in a shallow pan — lots of fluctuations, little depth or commitment (particularly when money is involved).

But seen the environmental global CRISIS of GLOBAL WARMING and its devastating climatological impact, I would recommend as an environmental policy - expert that Both NATURAL plankton will be bred in shallow waters as carbondioxide inhibitors in a large volume on the one hand and let nature goes its course in the seas and oceans so that sea - organisms / life - forms / mamals will not become extinct due to (for them) food poisoning.

As I've asserted many times, views on global warming seem like water sloshing in a shallow pan — a lot of movement, no depth (and thus no determination to act).

This work revealed, as the seven scientists describe it, that «the lowest isotope values (highest temperatures) of the last millennium are seen ~ 1100 - 1300 A.D., during the Medieval Climate Anomaly, and again after ~ 1950 A.D.» In between these two warm intervals, of course, were the colder temperatures of the Little Ice Age, when oscillatory thermal minima occurred at the times of the Dalton, Maunder, Sporer and Wolf solar minima, such that the δ18O proxy record of near - surface water temperature was found to be «robustly and near - synchronously correlated with various proxies of solar variability spanning the last millennium,» with decade - to century - scale temperature variability of 1 to 2 °C magnitude.»
