I think it is worse, much worse than you think it will be.
More data for you!
Back in the mid seventies we were learning about the looming return of the ice. Then someone upped and changed science. Al gore I think his name is.

The Pacific Northwest of the US had/has its driest winter (drought period), EVER recorded. I wonder if this summer will be a wet one like Australia this year? Seems to swing extreme both ways. Weird
IN OCTOBER 2003, A LITTLE-KNOWN THINK TANK in the Department of Defense quietly released a report warning that climate change could happen suddenly—so suddenly it could pose a major threat to our country's national security.
The title of the Pentagon report was a mouthful: An Abrupt Climate Change Scenario and its Implications for United States National Security. Those implications included rising seas, flooded coastal cities, at least one drowned country, droughts, food shortages, failed states, and fortress states. The report was never designed as a scientific prediction. It was a speculative effort by defense strategists to dramatize all the security threats the country would face if the climate suddenly shifted.
Why was the Pentagon suddenly worried about abrupt climate change? Because there was new evidence it had happened before.
CO2 Levels In Air Dangerously Low for Life on Earth
Atmospheric CO2 concentrations and average global temperatures for the past 550 million years on Earth.
Carbon dioxide levels from Brener (2001) and temperature from Scotese (2001) sourced from www.geocraft.com.

For the past two weeks or so, I just have not been able to get away from the subject of global warming. Every time I turn around, I seem to learn yet more reasons why the popular picture of Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) is not to be believed. Now I have run across data indicating our current levels of atmospheric CO2 are actually dangerously low for life on Earth.

Are you serious? Continental Europe has had a prolonged period of cool weather this spring. It is only now that temperatures are beginning to approximate something normal for the time of year. "Totally normal" -- Unsinn.
Now tell us where global warming went.
Cheers

It's perfectly normal to have some periods of below average temps, even under a general warming trend!
Despite what the ignorant sometimes seem to think, GW does not mean everywhere is warmer than normal every day ..... And the G stands for global. 70% of which is water.
