Several causes have been proposed: cyclical lows in solar radiation, heightened volcanic activity, changes in the ocean circulation, an inherent variability in global climate, or decreases in the human population. While not a true ice age, the term was introduced into the scientific literature by François E. Matthes in 1939. It may be conventionally defined as a period extending from the 16th to the 19th centuries, or about 1350 to about 1850.

Cetainly the scale of global tempreture is EPIC and the number of factors involved are colossal.

Seems to be a subject that few look at as being the root problem facing mankind, rarely encouraging less births with incentives...and so governments need that populace to tax, generals need them to fight, business need them for sales, and so the spiral accelerates.

Indeed and not one climate change expert has ever taken all those contributing factors into account and factored all them into a definative model ............

The Earth is a dynamic system and there are a lot more factors going on than just our little blip, which quite frankly could be perhaps insigificant, the next 150 years will be crucial ...........

Well, if we don't know what caused it, then we don't even know if we're still coming out of it. So that theory is not backed by anything more than BS.

Also, I'd expect a few climatologists to support that theory if it had any validity.

That is complete nonsense.

First of all, there is no definitive model.

Second of all, that isn't how science works. They don't just ignore important factors when trying to figure out what is happening.

The statement was complete bullshit on every level.
