Researchers were shocked to discover Jakobshavn was actually growing in size — after all, such a finding completely contradicts the climate change narrative. Scientists from the United States and the Netherlands teamed up to investigate the matter further. And what they found undermines the entire theory that glaciers are melting due to climate change.


quote:

Dubbed the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO), the experts say this current brings colder waters to the area every 20 years. According to their research, the NAO brought in a surge of cold water from the North Atlantic Ocean in 2016. Since that time, waters near Jakobshavn have been at their coldest since the mid-1980s. For three years in a row, ocean temperatures in the area have remained cold.

I posted an article a few months ago that showed the amount of ice had grown substantially in Antarctica.

Doesn't matter, CO2 is poisonous

Late 70’s and 80’s they talked about ice age and we would freeze over.

Then it was still during the tail end of the Cold War and Russian was going to nuke us.

I thought we were going to heat up and the glaciers were melting.
Now it still is Russia Russia Russia.

Which one will that Greta kid, DNC, and Al Gore (man bear pig on Southpark) want it to be?

Don't you understand? That global warming stuff is so unpredictable that it must be contained with tax dollars. first we'll boil in the heat then we'll freeze in ice, it's just not acceptable to live in fear.

Obviously these researchers are dumbfricks that watch XiNN and listen to their narrative.

Progs will be pissed. They’re always rooting for more fear porn. They don’t actually care about these causes. They only like exploiting these made causes to assume the moral high ground and act like assholes.

It's just another case that shows "climate change" as seen by the left is far more murky than they're willing to admit. Except their version of climate change isn't about the climate, it's about control.

POSTSGuest post: How the Greenland ice sheet fared in 2021

This guest post is by:

Dr Ruth Mottram, a climate scientist at the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI) in Copenhagen, which is part of the Polar Portal.

Dr Martin Stendel, a climate scientist at DMI.

Prof Jason Box, an ice climatologist at the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS).

Dr Kenneth D Mankoff, senior scientist at GEUS.

Dr Andreas Ahlstrøm, senior scientist at GEUS.

This year, the Greenland ice sheet has provided a feast for scientists.

A cool and wet early summer with unusually large and late snowfall in June delayed the onset of the main melt season – which typically runs through the northern hemisphere summer – but a heatwave in late July subsequently brought higher ice loss. 

This year was also notable for the first recorded rainfall at the summit of Greenland, which is 3,200 metres above sea level. And a new acceleration of ice loss at Sermeq Kujalleq – sometimes known as Jakobshavn Isbræ or Ilulissat glacier.

Accounting for both surface melting and discharge of icebergs, the Greenland ice sheet lost around 166bn tonnes of ice over the 12-month period ending in August. This means that 2021 is the 25th year in a row where Greenland has lost more ice than it gained.

Some scientists are saying one thing, some another. So, it looks like it’s not settled.

How do YOU know who to believe?

25 years represents a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a blink of an eye in geologic time. And yet, the science is supposedly settled.

Putting aside climate change and politics I do think we should try to pollute our environment less i.e. carbon capture. Do you think cancer alley is a myth? Is carbon capture a ban worthy word on TD?

How many trees have you planted this year?

Just say it like it’s meant all the time by climate nazis,; “ you should try to pollute our environment less.”

When these climate blowhards practice what they preach.. I may believe them. But when Al Gore jets around privately, lives in a mansion, and his heated pool uses more electricity than my family, I don’t give a damn about his alarmism.

Same for decaprio.

Same for the Obamas

Same for everyone else.

When they buy huge mansions, jet privately needlessly, travel in SUV convoys, and emit more carbon in one year than I do in 10… all climate alarmists can kiss my arse. I’m not changing a damn thing.

I am for environmental conservatism. Less polluting of toxic emissions, industrial/ commercial waste water disposal, trash management. Conserving our finite resources as well.

It's easy to see the sins of the past i.e. The Love Canal, industrial disposal wells, locally Bayou Trepagnier.

My issue is just how much should governments be involved. When the leaders of the world get together to determine what level of restrictions should be placed on companies and individuals and they don't include the world's largest polluter, everything they say is simply bullshite.

If the US and Europe were as serious about the environment as they say they are, they would globally boycott China until they comply.

Global Warming, (ehh now it's cooling)
we mean Global cooling, (dang, now it's warming)
wait --- Climate Change

That shite is the Religion of the Ultra Far Left Crazies. It's been exposed time after time to be nothing but a wealth redistribution plan and yet they persist it's true.

Even with the facts that not one single claim made in An Inconvenient Truth has come to fruition, they still eat that shite like candy.


It should be no wonder they have believed everything Fauci has said to date, even when his emails proved him a liar.
