Very good theories, flash. There's still much speculation on global warming, of it's past, present, and future. Speaking hypothetically, let's say the Earth's axis was originally at 0 degrees tilt, making the whole planet temperate, and the pole regions day light 24/7 some millions of years ago. What if the reasons behind it's current tilt was the fact of asteroid bombardment and/or ancient nuclear proliferation? That would theoretically account for some of the ice age cycles we've already had. Now, what if the Earth is trying to straighten it's axis back to 0 degrees tilt as a means to cleans itself? What if the Earth is living and aware of it's condition, and is doing everything it can to shrug off the impurities? Just more theories; something to contemplate; maybe global warming isn't such a bad thing after all (?)
