Re:Carbon emissions 'will defer Ice Age'

Wait... I thought global warming was supposed to trigger the next ice age—not postpone it! Carbon emmisions -> higher temps -> melting ice -> colder oceans -> drop in temps -> ice age. So which is it, climate scientists? Ice age, or water world?

Robert Wood in a 1909 experiment proved more carbon dioxide and other "greenhouse" gases in the atmosphere reflect the sunlight and reduce sun heating. Quite the opposite of what the mainstream climatologists predict.
and what's inside can't get out easier. Which is the whole point of the "greenhouse gases" what energy gets in can't escape as easily so there's a net gain over time causing the globe to warm.
I thought this was explained to people.
I believe the current Anti-Global warming argument is not whether or not the earth is warming, but whether humans have any significant factor in it happening.
