Temperatures have been going down for the last decade. I know that's not what the global warming alarmists wanted to happen, but it is true. 1998 was the hottest year of the current "warming period" (though not the hottest year in recorded history, as the alarmists claim - that was 1932). But even if 1998 was merely a "local temparature peak", it means that temperatures have not gotten that high since then. Therefore, temperatures have gone down.
Interestingly, mankind has not decreased its emissions of carbon dioxide during the last decade. In fact, the burning of fossil fuels has increased over that time, just as it has over the last 150 years.
In fact, the 2007 temperature dropped sharply from 2006, and the 2008 temperature is predicted to drop even more. The World Meteorological Organization blames this on the La Nina, and claims that as soon as the La Nina is over, temperatures will resume the "rapid increase" seen in the previous 3 decades. But for all we really know about climatology, a La Nina is the Earth's natural response to global warming, and it will continue until temperatures return to "normal", whatever that is.
But here's the kicker, whether La Nina is to blame for the current cooling or not, the fact is, none of the climate models that predict global warming predicted that a La Nina would occur in the early years of the 21st Century. So, if they can't accurately predict climate for the next 10 years, why in the world are we giving any serious consideration to things that they are predicting to occur a hundred years from now?

What have been sea level changes in the last 100 years?
Sea levels have risen by an average of about 8 inches in the last 100 years, with the rate of rise accelerating in recent decades due to climate change. Factors contributing to this rise include thermal expansion of seawater and melting ice caps and glaciers. Continued monitoring and research are essential to understanding and addressing the impacts of rising sea levels on coastal communities and ecosystems.
Are factors that affect long term climate change different from short term climate change?
If we define short-term climate change as limited to around one year, then El Nino and La Nina are the factors that affect (and effect) it. Long-term climate change happens over thousands of years, because of many factors like the strength of the sun, the tilt of our planet, the movement of the earth's orbit. Long-term climate change is also happening very quickly now because of global warming, but the effects will last a long time.
which best describes climate change?
Climate change refers to the long-term alteration of temperature and typical weather patterns in a place. It is primarily driven by human activities that release greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, leading to global warming and other adverse effects on ecosystems and societies.
How did earths climate land and water change at the end of the last ice age?
At the end of the last ice age, Earth's climate warmed, leading to melting ice sheets and glaciers. This caused sea levels to rise and land around coastlines to be submerged. The increased water flow reshaped landscapes and river systems, contributing to significant changes in landforms.
