The world does warm up gradually, but also has some slight cooling periods. In the end the temperature still becomes higher than the previous ones. Just read some Yahoo articles of snow in the Middle East. People are saying "Global Cooling" and using the articles as evidence as if nothing is happening. Even though these places with snow are at high elevation and tend to get snow annually. I decided to post a few comments, and I was astonished to find illiterate people bashing me. Most of the comments were about conspiracy and money, which was absurd. I am a young guy, science and philosophy is a hobby for me. This is my first post and I hope to learn some more information here.
