A not so random thought from someone on the eastern edge of the Mojave Desert.
I think the most important cause of global warming is the sun.

With the FSF a close second?

Have you contacted Al Gore about this revelation? The truth that it's the sun's fault and there's nothing government can do about it might prove somewhat uncomfortable.

If anything good comes out of global warming, it'll be that in a few years Dancing On Ice won't be on the fecking telly.

My thought is that the most likely cause of the multiple previous periods of global warming and cooling(ice ages), that our orb has experienced through-out history and prehistory, were most likely the result of variations in received radiant energy from el Sol. Consider that the Medieval warming was much warmer than it ever got during the last decade of the previous millennium, with much lower atmospheric CO2 levels. Greenland appeared verdant to the Norse boatmen who traversed the North Atlantic, unimpeded by icebergs.

If you really want to learn stuff, I suggest going to http://scholar.google.com It turns out THC is to blame.  http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0921818102001613
Abstract
We present paleoclimate evidence for rapid (<100 years) shifts of ∼2–4 °C in Chesapeake Bay (CB) temperature ∼2100, 1600, 950, 650, 400 and 150 years before present (years BP) reconstructed from magnesium/calcium (Mg/Ca) paleothermometry. These include large temperature excursions during the Little Ice Age (∼1400–1900 AD) and the Medieval Warm Period (∼800–1300 AD) possibly related to changes in the strength of North Atlantic thermohaline circulation (THC).
 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.

Hi,
NP: Tangerine Dream: Mojave Desert
As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

Moshk,
Pretty cool number. It reminds me that Frank Zappa and Don Van Vliet went to high school on the western edge the Mojave Desert. There's something out there.

Hi,
NP: Tangerine Dream: Mojave Desert
Wow! Congratulations Pedro! I have 138 TD albums, but the song you picked is only on ONE bootleg album (The Real Dream Encores) and I don't have it. I have Dream Encores, but that's a single CD and doesn't have Mojave Desert on it. Evidently, they only played the song for a live concert in Tokyo back in 1983. I also can't find the album legally OR not-so-legally. Oh well.
Time for all of you to head over to Beyond My DAW!

FWIW My reading of the deep ocean theory is that it explains what happens to the warming radiant energy -from the sun- after it has struck (and warmed) the ocean's surface in equatorial regions. Apparently the oceans distribute this energy northward via deep currents that aren't completely understood. But it all strikes me as a secondary process, as these currents don't actually produce warming energy, they only distribute energy which has already caused net global warming. Bert

(what no one seems to realize is that while everyone is distracted debating why the earth is getting hotter, the earth is slowly creeping closer to the sun because of a gradually increasing shift in the sun's gravitational pull, a phenomenon that's been happening since the dawn of time and that will continue to happen as the sun's mass continues to increase due to nuclear-thermal expansion until the eventual disintegration of the earth occurs as a result of its totally being consumed by the blazing heat of the sun. But that won't happen for another 1,342,657 years so... as you were.)

I guess I better start stocking up on ice cubes before they all melt.
