lol. yer.
The bad effects of CO2 in our atmosphere is actually proven as far as I know.
And you should try to come here where I live to experience the global warming for your self.

(it's known that the effects are much more visible on the poles)

You are right that the ice won't just melt suddenly, but after MANY decades of stability, the ice around where I live has become very strange in the past very few years. It almost seems like a 3-year surprise change. lol.

The fiord close to my city is now pretty much surrounded by small icechunks, instead of the occasional very large iceberg as it used to. That is because that it is too warm, and the ice in the glaciers are melting and crushing into much smaller pieces and therefore can't hold on to the ice as they could before.

These are just a few of many many things noticable up here where the action happens.

I hope that my writing is understandable, I am not native english-speaking.
