“We have to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period.”

“I have turned my studies to the history and philosophy of science. In 1995, I published a short paper in the academic journal Science. In that study, I reviewed how borehole temperature data recorded a warming of about one degree Celsius in North America over the last 100 to 150 years. The week the article appeared, I was contacted by a reporter for National Public Radio. He offered to interview me, but only if I would state that the warming was due to human activity. When I refused to do so, he hung up on me. I had another interesting experience around the time my paper in Science was published. I received an astonishing email from a major researcher in the area of climate change. He said, “We have to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period.””

1911 : 94F In Greenland

The New York Times reported in 1912 that the Titanic was sunk by an iceberg caused by unprecedented Arctic warmth during 1911.  According to Michael Mann and NASA, 1911 was one of the coldest years on record.

“AN unprecedentedly warm Winter in the entire arctic 1s believed to be the cause of the vast number of icebergs adrift in the North Atlantic Ocean during the present season and for the low latitudes which many. of them have reached Navigators and scientists of the Hydrographic Office and Revenue Cutter Service tn Washington have theories tending to prove that an unusually heavy snowfall in. Greenland, where all the icebergs are formed, in the Winter of 1910-11, was followed by an unusually hot Summer, and by a, very mild Winter in 1911-12, these conditions resulting in the creation: of an. enormously large crop of icebergs from the West Greenland glaciers, and of floe, or field ice. Unusual northerly and north- westerly winds have blown these bergs far to the southward. °

Last year, according to the officials of the Hydrographic Office, the thermometer registered 94 degrees In midsummer at Irigtut, on the west coast of Greenland.
