EXPERTS: GLOBAL WARMING MEANS MORE ANTARCTIC ICE
By SETH BORENSTEIN
— Oct. 10, 2012 5:48 PM EDTClimate change skeptics have seized on the Antarctic ice to argue that the globe isn’t warming and that scientists are ignoring the southern continent because it’s not convenient. But scientists say the skeptics are misinterpreting what’s happening and why.
Shifts in wind patterns and the giant ozone hole over the Antarctic this time of year — both related to human activity — are probably behind the increase in ice, experts say. This subtle growth in winter sea ice since scientists began measuring it in 1979 was initially surprising, they say, but makes sense the more it is studied.
“A warming world can have complex and sometimes surprising consequences,” researcher Ted Maksym said this week from an Australian research vessel surrounded by Antarctic sea ice. He is with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.
Many experts agree. Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Colorado adds: “It sounds counterintuitive, but the Antarctic is part of the warming as well.”
What a pile of crap. Hansen predicted peak sea ice loss in the Antarctic

If ice increases, it is due to global warming. If ice decreases, it is due to global warming. There has never been a group of people more completely full of it than climate experts.
Climate models also falsely predicted Antarctic sea ice would decline more than Arctic sea ice:

And climate models “robustly” predicted Antarctic sea ice would decrease in response to increased greenhouse gases and the ozone hole

In climate science, “robust” means that all the different climate models give the same wrong answer.

They are probably FOS about the “ozone hole”. Elementary. Austral winter = No solar radiation = no ozone production. Polar vortex isolates high southern latitudes from regions receiving solar radiation.
“If ice increases, it is due to global warming. If ice decreases, it is due to global warming. There has never been a group of people more completely full of it than climate experts.”
No, no, no. According to the above, they are full of ice.
The Climategate e-mails that surfaced in late November 2009 revealed a totalitarian government of deceit that George Orwell thought we would be aware of twenty-five years earlier, in 1984:
http://www.online-literature.com/orwell/1984/
George Orwell moved from London to the Scottish Isle of Jura in 1946 to write “Nineteen Eighty-Four,” the same year mainstream opinions on the internal composition of the Sun unanimously changed, without discussion or debate,
a,) From mostly iron (Fe) in 1945
b.) To mostly hydrogen (H) in 1946
Fred Hoyle documents this birth of the Standard Solar Model of Hydrogen-filled stars on pages 153-154 of his 1994 autobiography, Home is Where the Wind Blows.
Here is the rest of the story of our totalitarian government’s efforts to hide the source of energy that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945:

The Specials sang it best :
It’s all a load of bollocks
It’s all a load of bollocks
It’s all a load of bollocks
And bollocks to it all.

Then again, the “climate experts” have been the beneficiaries of really stupid government’s money that they got from even stupider tax paying voters..
The party is over, at least here in Oz.
I’m jealous about that. Can we have Abbott? We just need to borrow him for a few years.
I still want Allen West…armed… and occasionally blasting a varmint.
Characteristics associated with cultic groups.
1. The group displays excessively zealous and unquestioning commitment to its leader…
2. Questioning, doubt, and dissent are discouraged or even punished.
3. The leadership dictates, sometimes in great detail, how members should think, act, and feel
4. The group is elitist, claiming a special, exalted status for itself, its leader(s) and members…
5. The group has a polarized us-versus-them mentality, which may cause conflict with the wider society.
6. The leader is not accountable to any authorities…
7. The group teaches or implies that its supposedly exalted ends justify whatever means it deems necessary.
8. The leadership induces feelings of shame and/or guilt iin order to influence and/or control members. Often, this is done through peer pressure and subtle forms of persuasion.
9. The group is preoccupied with bringing in new members.
10. The group is preoccupied with making money.
These were taken from this list..

And definitely fit the ‘greens’ in general and ‘warmists’ in particular, don’t you think?

Reblogged this on Catholic Glasses.
“Many experts agree. Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Colorado adds: “It sounds counterintuitive, but the Antarctic is part of the warming as well.”
1. So “Many experts agree”, and equally many experts do not.
2. “It sounds counterintuitive”, no it sounds dumb, stupid, like you’re scrambling for anything to cover your embarrassment of being so wrong.
The Ozone “Hole” is a thinning of the ozone layer over the polar regions.
Since the climate ‘scientists’ didn’t get the memo, there has always been less atmosphere over the poles than over the equator. All polar atmospheric layers are thinner than those layers over the equator. That’s basic atmospherics. The historical records of arctic exploration has indicated that the polar regions had high UV levels since earliest times–the Inuit had sunglasses to prevent snow blindness–caused by excessive UV during the summer months.
Here’s a news flash for our socialist “scientists:” the Van Allen radiation belts are thinner at the poles. No doubt that when those worthies figure out how to bilk the public with that fact, they’ll use it for Internet Neutrality and banning Fox News or something…
You need to 86 that bit about snow blindness. I’m an optometrist and all that stuff is whacko.
“Snow blindness” is real – excessive solar UV reflected off high-albedo snow causes photokeratitis of the cornea – a temporary, painful decrease in vision, which thankfully heals quickly, not a permanent “blindness” by any means.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photokeratitis
A a teen I skied for a full day in the snow, after losing my goggles. I had snow blindness and severe pain the next day. with my eyes closed driving by a car with its lights on caused pain. It is certainly a real medical condition.
Ditto. Happened to my brother after a ski trip in Germany. I learned to keep my goggles on, the easy way. 😉
I guess this isn’t enough crap for them to play in. No, they’ve got to create more. It seems the Sun, like the temperature record didn’t fit the theory…

Since 1945, they have tried to hide the fact that the Sun is powered by neutron repulsion, the same source of energy that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.

Here is Australia’s BoM re-arranging history:

Drought and fire here to stay with El Nino’s return
VICTORIA is likely to come under the influence of another El Nino within the next three years, exacerbating the drought and the likelihood of bushfires, a senior Bureau of Meteorology climate scientist says.
David Jones, the head of the bureau’s National Climate Centre, said there was some risk of a worsening El Nino event this year, but it was more likely to arrive in 2010 or 2011.
“We are in the build-up to the next El Nino and already the drought is as bad as it has ever been — in terms of the drought, this may be as good as things get,” Dr Jones said.

“The past two years have been Australia’s wettest two-year period since at least 1900.
Not surprisingly, people ask whether global warming caused the record rains and floods.
The simple answer is ”no” – the heavy rains and floods have been caused by back-to-back La Nina events.”
“Before both the last two summers, the Bureau of Meteorology predicted an increased chance of above-average rainfall, because the climate system was already in the middle of a strong La Nina event.

The point that Boring misses is that regardless of the reason, the Antarctic is not doing what alarmist said it would. He says the ‘skeptics are missing’. Yet it is NOT the skeptic positions that are being proven wrong, but the alarmists. So clearly the alarmists missed.
He is a typical liberal – always blaming others for your own mistakes.
OZONE is created by lighting , what is the total lightning count for the year. Then compare it to the past . Man has lessthan one tenth of one percent control over weather and climate . Mann can control a lot of gullible people.
