re: People in Iceland hold funeral for a glacier

That says way more about their gullibility than anything else. Glaciers have been disappearing for a couple of centuries

First time in history Icelanders have been gullible

took this picture today. In 1930 the Glacier snout was where I stood today when this was taken 100 years before then, this Glacier was miles further up the valley. I laugh when tourists cry about this Glacier retreating due to climate change

Are you saying that glacier formed and melted in the last 200 years?

Edit: think you meant down the valley. It’s retreating up the valley.

Because trying to deny global warming exists is idiotic and proves you have no concept of basic scientific concepts. Without greenhouse gases being trapped in the atmosphere (aka global warming) we would all be popsicles.

Global climate change (or at least our impact on it) can realistically be debated. Our pollution and energy usage obviously have an impact, but how much that impact that has over normal climate change is more difficult to say.

True

So is claiming a Glacier disappeared because of climate change. They started retreating long mg before.

My understanding is that we are overdue for an ice age so even if we all drive Escalades the popsicle phase is coming.

As an aside, I get a chuckle out of people who believe we should go to Mars because we are wrecking Earth’s environment. There is nothing man can do that would make Mars a better option than Earth, including nuclear warfare.

100 yrs ago isn’t long ago

Sources are listed top right.

I’ll tell you what, you pick the ice core data graph showing temp/CO2 bistory of Earth, post it, and the. we’ll decide what the correct temperature should be based on historical data.

Can we strip mine this area now?

So gay
