I watch The Day After Tomorrow and then Al Gore's doci (or the other way around). I think the film made his arguments seem all the more realistic and possible.
The main point I picked up was that the melting ice caps and glaciers dilute the salt levels in sea water and that this effects the Golf streat which circulates warm water/air to the northen hemisphere. Once the warm air stops getting pumped around the world then the temperatures will drop and falling rain turns in to snow, which turns in to ice which turns us in to f*ucked.
And I got the feeling from all the examples of contrasting then and now glaciers from 50 years ago, that in another 50 years time, we'll be freezing our nuts off......and so two will livestock and veg and fruit and beer!
