John:
This is not my expertise either.
Yet, a convincing answer has also provide reasons why in the middle ages the vikings grew cereals in Greenland (hence its name) or why areas presently (still) covered by apline galciers during Roman times were covered by forrests.

This is not my area of expertise, but why are the global "ice caps" melting
if its not "global warming.
I've heard of concerns that the polar bears in the Canadian artic are
suffering because their traditional breeding grounds are melting!

Actually the temperature data I have access to indicates cooling
rather than warming. 3 out of last 4 years we had no summer
at all - temperatures were way lower than average, this winter
we had deeply buried waterpipes freeze for the first time in their
20 years existance etc...
I really do not buy into all the global warming talk, however aggressive
the media are about it. Whether it is just a mistake or a lie
or a mixture of both I do not know, what I do know is that
my winter energy consumption is rising measurably while
the thermostat here keeps the temperature with about a 0.1 C
precision year after year... whatever the CO2 concentration may
have been.
