"A chilly Arctic summer has left nearly a million more square miles of ocean covered with ice than at the same time last year – an increase of 60 per cent.
The rebound from 2012’s record low comes six years after the BBC reported that global warming would leave the Arctic ice-free in summer by 2013.
Instead, days before the annual autumn re-freeze is due to begin, an unbroken ice sheet more than half the size of Europe already stretches from the Canadian islands to Russia’s northern shores."
Looks like all that hullaballoo from Al Gore was bunkum, just like we thought. Those who wish to scare us into giving them more of our money and freedoms will have to come up with something new, as the whole global warming thing has been debunked.
I hear the next scare tactic will be the existential "threat" of ocean acidification. Give all your money to stop it from killing us all!!!!
CW..what you don't understand is that Global warming causes more hurricanes, tornadoes and melting ice that will raise the sea level. On the off chance none of those things happen then Global Warming causes expansion of ice by reducing the amount of hurricanes and lowering sea
ReplyDeletelevel by freezing the ice from the ocean in a very
hard to ezplain thermodynamic reaction that no one knows about. By warming the planet with CO2 it actually causes ice to form. See, it's easy!
I feel better already! I'm sending my life savings to Al Gore so he can save us all from a freezing/boiling death! Thank God for heroes like him.
DeleteI fear that global cooling will initiate another ice age. The only way that Gore can save us is if we give up firearms. Once we do that, Al will personally heal the planet with unicorns and rainbows.
ReplyDeleteDammit!
ReplyDeleteThey PROMISED me that I'd be able to water ski behind a cruise boat in the NW Passage this summer!
.....And here I saved up all those beer bottle tops they wanted me to for "the troops' with a chance to go with the Eskimos and kill baby Harp seals who were drowning because all the polar bears were hogging the icicle-flowes..... or something.
I love me some baby harp seal fried up on a stick.
