Im just asking if global warming or global cooling happens, where will it take effect. what places would be dangerous to stay in and what places would be good to stay in while global warming / cool is happening.

If either happens, how long will it last?

I know that warming / cooling may be fake for government and stuff to make money but it may be real.

The consequences of Global Warming are more complex than just 'warming, rising sea levels and melting ice caps'. Some regions may become cooler and wetter as ocean currents alter their routes, stop or even reverse. Global warming implies that the average temperature of the Earth as a whole increases. If you are living in low laying areas then you could be in trouble... Bangladesh, The Netherlands, coastal areas and many Pacific and Indian Islands.

The situation for Global Cooling is similar but the Polar regions would be expected to cool more than equatorial regions.

There are natural warming and cooling cycles that the Earth has undergone due to cycles such as the Milankovitch cycles and even variations in Solar output. These processes cannot account for the current increases in global temperatures though.

You have kinda answered the first question yourself - it's a problem which is beginning to affect the ENTIRE planet. That's why it's called "Global" warming.

The worst places to live are anywhere which is currently close to the ocean. Predictions vary as to the level to which it will rise, but if you live somewhere coastal, I wouldn't suggest investing much in long-term renovations. The islands of the Pacific are already experiencing the problem - some are starting to become untenable as human habitation and the residents are having to find elsewhere to live.

From what I understand, nowhere is going to be completely free of the effects of a radical change in the climate - storms are going to become worse, rainfall patterns will change in ways we are only able to guess...so I would imagine the best place to live will be in temperate lower mountainous zones where there are good water storages.

How long will it last? Who knows? I suppose it depends upon how quickly we take action now! The scientists believe that it is reversible...but it will take a quantum leap in all our lifestyles! It will also take a whole lot to shift the paradigms of the people who still exhibit ignorance, a lack of care, a belief that it's a crock or that it's all Al Gore's fault. Ostriches, in other words!

I seriously doubt that it's fake. Too many reputable scientists have come out and said the evidence points to a whole lot of factors that should have us very worried. I think that there's a parallel between the fakeness of Global Warming and the conspiracy theory that we never landed upon the moon - there would have to have been way too many individuals "in on it" for the idea that Niel Armstrong DIDN'T walk on the moon to remain safe!

I also highly recommend that you watch "An Inconvenient Truth". You might also like to watch "The Great Global Warming Swindle" (which you can find on YouTube), but be aware that a whole lot of the latter film has been thoroughly debunked, whereas AIC has not - well, not in a meaningful and systematic way at least!

Love and Light,

I really recommend that you watch "An Inconvenient Truth" with Al Gore. Not only will it answer all of your questions above, but it will also tell you how our environment can be fixed.
The basic answer to your question is that we need to keep a close eye on Greenland. A lot of fresh water is melting into the ocean there that could lower the salinity of the Atlantic Ocean. This could cause the thermal current to slow or stop - which once caused a mini ice age in Europe.

If it happens u probably want be here. I am 76 and we have had some cold days that broke records that were 100 years old . That doesn't look like global warming to me and just like in the past we will possible break some high records this summer . Not sure but I think that Mother nature has so many things that keep us on a balanced weather that these people that think they know don't know anything.

Global warming is a long-term event. It is happening. Avoid beachfront areas to live in. Nothing is going to happen overnight, though, so don't be fanatic about it.

Jerry Mahlman, comments on Adm. Conrad Lautenbachers “Message From the less than Secretary—Encouragement of scientific Debate and Transparency interior of NOAA” -- "...new scientific insights that have extra to the prodigious quantity of innovations gained those days on the scientific understanding of our inexorably warming planet." observe that this prominent scientist who has worked see you later in fluid dynamics and who comes up in many situations in those discussions makes use of the observe "inexorable" in his assertion. "Inexorable" potential will take place, could desire to take place, no longer stoppable. ok..your worldwide cooling went out while this fact grow to be settled; because of the fact it incredibly is inexorable, there's no longer something we can do to evade it, and there is in simple terms no longer yet another cooling time, or ice age. Dr. Mahlman has mentioned so. So in simple terms study to stay with consistently increasing temperatures, no respite, shown through Dr. Mahlman. All of what we theory grow to be cooling, like the LIA, or 1950-1970, probably grow to be in simple terms delusion or hallucinations, or perchance plots through people who have faith warming isn't inexorable, to confuse the difficulty. This does tie in properly with the now thoroughly elementary undeniable fact that the solar's radiation has no longer something to do with the earth's temperature as I in simple terms study, new learn proves it, forgot the place, i think of in between the pro-GW papers reported in yet another question. for people who're offering in simple terms about all those measures to kick back the earth, they are doomed to failure...Dr. Mahlman has shown so in this paper. it incredibly is the way he has shown Nature to artwork. So permit's study to stay with it and luxuriate in getting hotter, inexorably!! And permit's get all that history, and the curves showing ice an prolonged time, corrected to show the inexorable flow of the Globe ever hotter.

It will effect the whole globe. No-one will be exempt, rich or poor. If you live along a coast, move inland.
