Global warming?

Barack Obama joins Al Gore in the rush to buy beachfront property... days after warning of dangerous sea level rise. These cocks really know how walk the talk

The potential collapse of Antarctic glaciers was trumpeted loud and long as proof of AGW... right up until it wasn't. I'm glad we can agree another of your stupid scare stories just face planted. Keep them coming.

"right up until it wasn't."?
Now when did that event slip through the mass of scientists and become established fact!
from a couple of days ago....

Antarctic researchers have long been aware that warm-water currents in the region are eroding the continent's western ice sheets, with the Southern Ocean's high salinity allowing warm water to sink uncharacteristically below cold water. According to the ICECAP team, those same warm-water currents are also gaining access under the east side of the Totten Glacier through two "gateways" into a large cavity in the ice shelf.
The Totten Glacier covers an area of 90 miles by 22 miles, but more important is the "catchment" of inland ice the frozen glacier holds back from the surrounding ocean. That catchment is estimated at 538,000 square kilometers, or three-quarters the size of Texas. There is enough ice in the catchment area behind the glacier to raise sea levels by 11 feet, according to the ICECAP team.

"And that's a conservative lower limit," said Jamin Greenbaum, an ICECAP geophysicist and lead author of the study.

Stupid scare stories? as stupid as ignoring what is happening and pretending it doesn't exist?

If your truck is stuck on a level crossing, and you can see the train coming early enough, you can easier figure out how to get out of it's way...wait until it's almost on you, and you're in deep schtung!

It's time for us all to wake up.

Fuck I love yesterday, today, schedules, text books, work, etc. Got a bit bored after a 2.5 minutes and who the fuck pronounces louvre and plague like that; fucking uneducated muppet. Jantar is killing it here with the facts and research though, so I've not much to add.

Considering your attention span you should probably be commended for getting that far.

Still longer than yours though, or have you started reading Jantar's links and having an on-topic discussion while I didn't notice? (posting an anti-the-man vid certainly suggests this is not the case)

Perhaps this will help?

Great watch, cheers.

T'would be around about the time the money bashing started. Coincidence?

Nah, didn't get to that part, guess it confirms my evaluation of whether it got any better or not though Still, wasn't this about global warming at one point? Or is any serious issue just an excuse for you fools to start soap-bombing?

You'd have hated the rest of it... and no, it wasn't about money. T'was just that tiny window.

Thanks for providing a glorious example of "Don't just read the headlines, ignore everything the churnalist says, don't even read the abstract... read the fucking paper"

The paper predicts NOTHING. It provides a possible mechanism that could if blah diddy blah might possibly... more research needed... send money......... KACHING$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Here's the paper :- http://www.nature.com/articles/ngeo2...boingboing.net

Above all ignore the panty wetting hysterics of politically motivated scumbags.

That's not how I read it. I think the important bit is: "as stupid as ignoring what is happening and pretending it doesn't exist".

Has there ever been an ice age? has there ever been an asteroid impact? has Earth ever had deforestation to the levels WE create? has the ocean ever been higher than it currently is? etc... Using those eyes (not necessarily SPMan's), the numbers are as irrelevant as any headline... as the same probability remains i.e. it will happen, or it won't.

...it will probably rain on Saturday...it will probably be .3 warmer than what we are acclimatised to...bugger...

All the Klimate Scienz lemmings love trotting out the "97% consensus" line to support their point... as if consensus has any significance in science.

Here's an analysis of how they managed to manufacture that particular lie. Naturally being part of the cannon it's shabby fraud and mediocrity as per usual.
