By far the largest number of local glaciers in north-east Greenland had receded very greatly during recent decades, and it would not be exaggerating to say that these glaciers were nearing a catastrophe.
Obama wants to lower CO2 levels, to prevent something which was happening at lower CO2 levels.

“For one free man to attempt to tell another free man what legal products he should or should not be able to own is the most gross and irresponsible bastardization of freedom I can imagine. But then again, I’m not a helpless, feckless, spineless, bloodsucking sheep waiting for direction.”

Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) on Friday said he plans to introduce legislation that would bring back the military draft and extend it to women for the first time. Rangel, who has pushed for years to bring back the draft, said the Pentagon’s decision to allow women to serve in combat means that they too should register for the Selective Service.
Last winter was warm in the Eastern US due to climate change. But the climate is changing so fast, that the current symptom is cold in the Eastern US.
Some experts have predicted as much as 40 degrees warming in Connecticut during the next five months, and 100% loss of snow cover.

CNN believes that there may be a connection between meteors and man-made CO2.
A few years ago, Walt Meier lectured me that excess Antarctic ice isn’t important to the climate – because it occurs during the winter when the sun is low.
Well …. Antarctic ice has been above normal for the past five seasons – including the last two summers.
This summer, we have excess ice well to the north of 60S – which has a significant impact on Earth’s SW radiative budget.
Contrast this with the alarmist obsession over Arctic September sea ice north of 80N – which has almost no impact on Earth’s SW radiative budget.
