“getting smaller”

“Petermann Glacier in Greenland is getting smaller, according to NASA and glaciologists, not larger, as claimed in social media posts saying that the glacier has defied news reports by growing three metres a day for the past 11 years.”

    As I’ve stated before they claim everything is melting. melting here, melting there, melting everywhere and yet the ferry boats still land at the same place on Manhattan Island. 2/3 of Greenland lies North of the most northern point of Alaska. it’s a cold place that gets a lot of snow. is there any evidence that it’s snowing less there now then it was 50 years ago? I doubt it.

    The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.

      Before Orwell there was a smart Frenchman by the name of Frederick Bastiat. similar writing styles. same theme. both brilliant. Bastiat’s book The Law, is a must read.

  3. Good one. I get rid of sharknado warmunists by producing one of these Heller gifs–especially the ones that say NASA–and saying: explain that.

    It would be interessting to see what the AI’s are saying.

    As by now they may not have already been manipulated on smaller stuff like that.
    Therefore a factcheck should result in a correct answer.
    And if not then one can assume that,in terms of everything Agenda, they have been coded to prioterize official news outlets,factchecks and wikipedia over real data.

    There is more ice on the surrounding mountains in 2024 then in there was in 2012.
    This would indicate that Greenland is gaining ice.

    WOW, Tony, they are targeting you specifically, but unwilling to say your name. Maybe they are afraid that if they mention you, people will come here to investigate and be converted.
    I used to think it was important that the ice not melt, but then I got a larger perspective, and began to wonder how much ice there was during the Viking Era. Certainly there was less back when the trees grew within the Arctic Circle, and humans, and other animals lived through that period just fine.
    Then there was the fact that CO2 was 7500 ppm way back in time, and life evolved and moved along just fine.
    Then there was that fact that CO2 has been decreasing almost linearly for 500 million years, with an odd blip upward at one point, which is the only reason why life didn’t CO2 starve long before we evolved, and also, recently CO2 got dangerously low again, to 180 ppm, during the last Ice Age.
    So I decided that we need to burn more, not less, fossil fuels to assure that life will still be here 20 million years from now.
    Too bad more environmentally concerned people don’t come here to get a larger perspective. Maybe they could begin to actually work toward good .
