A global warming research study in Canada has been cancelled because of “unprecedented” thick summer ice.

Oops!  Not predicted by the models.

The study, entitled BaySys, is a $17-million four-year-long program headed by the University of Manitoba. It was planning to conduct the third leg of its research by sending 40 scientists from five Canadian universities out into the Bay on the Canadian Research Icebreaker CCGS Amundsen to study “contributions of climate change and regulation on the Hudson Bay system.”
But it had to be cancelled because the scientists’ icebreaker was required by the Canadian Coast Guard for a rather more urgent purpose – rescuing fishing boats and supply ships which had got stuck in the “unprecedented ice conditions”.
“It became clear to me very quickly that these weren’t just heavy ice conditions, these were unprecedented ice conditions,” Dr. David Barber, the lead scientist on the study, told VICE. “We were finding thick multi-year sea ice floes which on level ice were five metres thick… it was much, much thicker and much, much heavier than anything you would expect at that latitude and at that time of year.”
Clearly not one to let a crisis go to waste, Barber seized the opportunity to perform the usual alarmist clown dance for the media, explaining why this incident definitely shows that global warming is a major problem and deserving of our urgent attention.  
Al Gore, however, was seen sobbing disconsolately at his huge private compound in Tennessee.  The gravy train is coming to the end of the line for this charlatan.

  1. The current mantra of "climate change" that replaced "global warming" means that any change in the weather is proof of man-caused whatever. Settled science, the debate is over.

    Are you sure it wasn't at his other huge private compound in Malibu?
