"The current age of global warming
politics will certainly end with a whimper once a few consecutive years
of cooling are recorded. Why should we expect such cooling? Because the
forces that caused warming and cooling in the past, before the advent
of industrial civilization, are still at work."

good find. BTW, i saw a good post on Dot Earth about the need for art that helps raise awareness of global warming issues:
”we need a public domain (on globalwarmingart.com?) ‘cooking earth’ image (not the stylized one they have now) to represent the issue, and it needs to be everywhere – stickers, buttons, coffee mugs, blog badges, …. as a omnipresent reminder.
(Or maybe adapt g.w.art’s ovoid “Global Warming Predictions Map” for this – can someone remap its data onto a circular earth image? please?)
[ANDY REVKIN comments: This reminds me of the growing effort in the arts community to tackle this question of effective imagery..]
