Well, that's a relief.

According to CO2 Science freswater run-off, which is supposed to increase because of Global Warming and shut down the Transatlantic conveyor, is actually decreasing:

In a world of global warming hysteria, and in a part of that world (high-latitude North America) where claims of unprecedented regional warming are particularly rampant, there is evidence that just the opposite of what is typically claimed by climate alarmists has actually occurred over the past several decades: regional temperatures, especially those over the eastern half of the HJUBs' drainage basins cooled, precipitation over the region declined, and river discharge from the basins to the Arctic Ocean decreased, all of which phenomena tend to discredit claims of an impending CO2-induced-by-way-of-global-warming shutdown of the ocean's thermohaline circulation.


Between this and Greenland's growing ice sheets, perhaps we need a new protocol on "Global Cooling."

Cranky Greg offers his own take on Global Warming.

Also, I like this observation from Junk Science:

As Miceal O'Ronain points out, every time Ozone Al makes major speeches, some poor patch freezes as Russia and northern Asia is now. If he keeps this up it won't be slowing meridional overturning we need worry about as a potential trigger for a new ice age.
