    Very early barbarian attacks need to be patched

    I've had one of these very early, but the stack walked next to my capital, then my second city and kept going into Monty's empire? Why?

    It still hasn't been proven conclusivly that CO_2 is a major factor at all, all we really know is that in the past CO_2 would rise 800 years after the temperature...

    Sorry... All I'm saying is the science is still there to do, in truth nobody really knows what's causing what, and the actually mechanism is probably a mixture of both, I just get sick of people going, "The Science is done hahahahahahahahahaha!" Back to the topic, there also needs to be...

    The sunspots are at the lowest levels since the little ice age, the Southern Average Temperature hasn't gone up (and infact had been going down) since the sunspots stagnated this decade, the Global Average temperature is now responding to the massive drop in solar output with a massive (how can...

    It's much more complex than that. Another point is that there are always going to be deserts, they form nomatter the Global Temperature, infact both Australia and the Sahara were forests and Jungles when the Global average temperature was much higher than it is now, at the same time the Amazon...

    Explain it to me, because if coal plants cause the planet to heat up in it, it's bollocks!

    And removing all flood plains downstream. Also, completely removing Global Warming from the game! Not only is Global Warming in the game completely unrealated to the theory, but...

    Removing Globel Warming?

    The truth is it's colder now than when my Grandmother was born, but that's for another thread... Remove this from the game please!

    First of all, I completly agree about the smog thing, that's what the scrubbing is for and has reduced massively. As for what you have said about the La Niña, that is just plain bollocks! Greenhouse gasses are said to have increased the Global Average temperature around 0.7°C, and last year...

    As I've said over and over again, as long as you scrub the emmisions for sook and Sulfar compounds then it isn't that terrible, but it is true that Nuclear power is cleaner and most importantly can produce a lot more energy.

    Good point, when are they going to build that concrete dome around it. The only reason Chernobyl isn't that bad anymore is because is dispursed, not because it degraded. Anyhow, people still don't live near Chernobyl anymore...

    May I say that the oceans haven't heated in 3 years, sunspots are down... Oh and the world cooled by 0.7°C last year bringing the global average temperature back to the same levels as the 1930s and conclusivly showing that solar variation (sunspots and other solar proxies) have a much higher...

    What about down river... Massive impact!

    Dams/Hydro power and such...

    Well that's nice to know, but I don't live next to one, I live more than 1,000 kms downstream from many of them and now there's no water! We need to use coal for the time being and if we scrub the gasses for sulfur and sook then it isn't going to do any damage.

    Yeah, China really shouldn't piss anyone off who has GPS guided missiles... Back to the point though, I think that Hydro power need to be changed, in truth Coal Power is better for the environment (with SO_2 scrubbing of course)...
