Now they are certain the glaciers will disappear. Except by 2100 instead of 2020.

It’s the tilt of the earth on it’s axis. It rotates every 25000 years. You the one at 22 degrees or so. We coming around to another cycle. So go buy a thick coat if live in Louisiana or plan to move if you live in Montana. Another ice age coming.

We will run out of oil! Hoax of the ‘70’s. 
The Russians are coming! Hoax of the 80’s. 
Global Warming!! Hoax of the 90’’s. 
Ummm. We meant Climate Change! Hoax of the day.

From 2000-2010 there was the "overpopulation" concern.

I guess climate change is 2010-2020.

I wonder what 2020-2030 will be? Aliens?

So certain, in fact, that the new signs don’t even bother to venture a guess. “Future generations” means my grandkids will be able to read those signs and pray that the govt will tax them more to save the glaciers.

Joseph McCarthy was 100% correct.

Let me say that again. Joseph McCarthy was unequivocally right.

In 2017, a study released by USGS and Portland State University said that in the past half century, some of the ice formations in Montana had lost 85% of their size and the average shrinkage was 39%.

Some of these other subjects may be overblown but don’t lessen the impact of HIV/AIDS. It was a legit death sentence for basically everyone diagnosed with it in the 80s until treatment became more common/available in the 90s. It still isn’t curable and is only manageable with multiple medications.

He stood in front of the US Senate. And he waived papers in front of his face, and said: "I have the names here of communist agents working in the Pentagon, working in the White House, working in the State Department, working on Congressional staffs, and even members of Congress themselves!!!"

He didn't have those names. He was lying. So no. He was not 100% correct. He created hysteria to feed his ego and propel his agenda.

Is there a current picture of the glaciers in 2020 to compare to old photos?


Look up the Mendenhall glacier. It has substantial melt since the 50's.

Don't forget the Y2K hysteria. That sold lots and lots of new tech.

Scroll down a bit on this page, it has a comparison of a glacier in 1910 to 2005. A few signs in Glacier have pictures of what what the glaciers used to look like and what they look like now.

Global advocates are do-nothing people. Think about what they do. They point out a "problem" and offer absolutely no realistic solution. And they get paid for nothing but crying all the time.

If this is all the world had to offer, we would have nothing.

It is extremely sad that it took 3 years for a National Park to get the budget to change 3 signs.

While predictions of them being gone were off, they are still shrinking. Seeing them up close is incredible. 25 active ones left, the largest being Harrison Glacier.
