Climate scientists have long neglected the oceans. This has been a long standing complaint of geophysicists, because most of the Earth's surface heat is in the oceans, which makes them more important to understand than the atmosphere.
Yes, absolutely right. They have been crying about the temperatures rising in te last century. But IMO, this has been this way for. There are cycles or temperature rising and cooling down and again rising and cooling down. You would have noticed that in precious few years we are getting more chilly winters than we used to have 10 or 20 years ago.
I'm sitting here in the lap of Himalyas and I can confirm you that no glaciers have melt. If they had melted, at least there would have been some kind of catastrophe in my region. But we didn't feel anything. instead, winters are getting cooler and summers are getting shortened by every year.

That doesn't surprise me. I actually do work related to climate change and there shouldn't be dramatic effects on temperatures far from the arctic. Most warming is occurring in northern latitudes and during winter nights.
People don't realize that they're largely freaking out about warmer winter nights, in the places with the coldest winters.

Cooling Atlantic Ocean will attract more sharks?
