btw, your signature is ungrammatical, it has one too many screws in it. perhaps if you removed that loose screw in your brain it, and you, would make more
sense...

It's not as if he had to search too hard to find it, Bianca .. considering the obvious peanut size of his brain.

Does anyone else remember when the flat-eathers were claiming that ice was increasing
in Greenland, as 'evidence' that the climate was not warming?
Well, we won't see that wingnut claim any more: One of the world's largest glaciers, on the west coast of Greenland, is shrinking at an alarming rate as a result of global warming -- with potentially dire consequences. Ilulissat, a UNESCO-listed glacier, is shedding ice into the sea faster than ever before, according to one of Denmark's top experts on glaciology. Andreas Peter Ahlstroem, a researcher with the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland institute, told AFP that the glacier has receded by more than 15 kilometres (10 miles) since 2001. "Its calving rate (breaking off of ice) has never been so rapid," he said. The Ilulissat glacier and icefjord have been on UNESCO's world heritage list since 2004 and is the most visited site in Greenland, its ice and pools of emerald-blue water admired by tourists and studied by scientists and politicians around the world. Khan explained that Ilulissat is losing more than 30 cubic kilometres (seven cubic miles) of ice a year, compared to 10 cubic kilometres in 2000 and just five in 1992. "We should aim to at least reduce CO2 emissions and limit the damage done," he said. A panel of UN scientists estimates that if the polar ice caps continue to melt at their current rate, sea levels could rise by between 18 and 59 centimetres (seven and 24 inches) by 2100, But Khan says these calculations do not take into account the melting of Greenland's glaciers. "In fact, if this thawing that we see ... was to spread across the whole island, the sea level would rise between one metre and 1.5 metres by the end of the century," he told AFP. Source: AFP
Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

"A lot of glaciers in Greenland are melting at more or less the same pace and even with an ambitious agreement at the summit ... it will be impossible to
stop this," Khan said.
The melting ice is both a consequence and a cause of global warming: ice reflects heat, as opposed to water which absorbs it and warms up the climate, thus causing more glaciers and snow to melt. Khan explained that Ilulissat is losing more than 30 cubic kilometres (seven cubic miles) of ice a year, compared to 10 cubic kilometres in 2000 and just five in 1992. "We should aim to at least reduce CO2 emissions and limit the damage done," he said. A panel of UN scientists estimates that if the polar ice caps continue to melt at their current rate, sea levels could rise by between 18 and 59 centimetres (seven and 24 inches) by 2100, Well, it finally came out. There is nothing anyone can do about it and the most it will do is add 7 to 21" if water to the sea level. I say good, now we can get rid of New Oreleans and its inhabitants once and for all.

as with the direction and velocity of an iceberg......so too is it beginning to become clear to many folks now that this scam is all about attempting to
weaken the industrialized world. Good grief meetings held recently we see idiots putting down on paper that we cannot allow the earth to warm more than 2
degrees C......of course there is no plan to achieve that as basically there is no plan that could be made to achieve it. It's a pipedream. Then we have
those suggestions we should adopt a carbon footprint surcharge (tax penalty) on those who use more carbon than others.

Drawing the wrong conclusions is a specialty of geoff and scoundrel
"There is no use trying," said Alice; "one can't believe impossible things." "I dare say you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." Lewis Carroll |

Its a tough position but the two of us and a handful of others took up the cause to provide contrarian views and opinions to secular humanistic positions that
so often populate our board and which are steeped in BS vs. fact to jar the senses into researching subjects for truth in hopes you will see the light of your
misguided ways and words......that and getting under your skin.

What makes you think there'd be any fish in the empty glacier lake ? It takes millinieums of years to generate metamorphoses biospecific algae, let
alone fish .... in a newly formed water source .. duh.
