If the caps melt, chances are you change a lot of things about the way ocean currents, warm and cold, now work.
Who knows who gets hot and who gets cold? That's why it's a misnomer to call weather, climate. The two are not the same.
"Global Warming" could produce superstorms, and these would not be warm superstorms. These would be very cold superstorms....or so the thesis goes ...by extrapolation into weather effects.
One thing is consistenly clear: prognostications have it that we will lose a lot of people, not only because there is this foul weather, but also that most of the affected will be in poor areas, the Southern Hemisphere mostly, and unable to protect themselves from what's coming.
Hell, these people are so poor, they cannot even afford a lawyer to take GWG emitters to court. They rely on leadership, principle, and goodwill on this issue.
The scariest part of the whole thing is the models do not show or predict whether this phenomenon works like a rheostatic switch or like an on-off switch. We'd best hope it's the former.
