re: Global warming of planet"s" (plural)

Consider a gravitational disturbance affecting planet Earth and other planets in the solar system such as Mars and Pluto. This disturbance would have an effect on the molten iron magma causing eddies or at least a change in flow direction. This change would generate extra heat via friction against the mantle and warming of the oceans from below. Heating from below would cause a worldwide rise in sea level and melting of the affected planets polar ice caps.

If the extra heat was from an increase of solar radiation we would all be fried and crispy by now. There is not a rise in sunburn cases. And the polar ice caps would not melt because they would get a minimal dose of radiation and remain cold. How many gazillions of btu's would it take to raise the tempurature of the worlds oceans by 1Âº ? Lots! Only something very large looming in our solar system could affect so many planets at once and in the same manner.
