Greenland is coated in nearly 700,000 square miles of ice, a reservoir of frozen water the size of California and Texas combined. If it all melted, the sea level would surge about 18 feet, devastating the worlds coastal cities and creating a humanitarian disaster of unprecedented scale.
Scientists already know that this ice cover is thinning and that the planets thermostat is being pushed up by man-made carbon emissions.
We know from other recent articles that the global warming fraud is a $1.5 Trillion scam, so the fraud continues.
Wouldn’t it be great if Greenland could live up to its name again!
I saw michael mann on TV last night.
He has the type of face you want to punch until he admits he is a lying sack of excrement.
It would sure be nice to see some actual science out of these people for once.
Sorry, Chicken Little, I’ll believe it when I see it.
$30 million?! Pure idiocy.
Greenland used to be heavily forested, back when the earth was much warmer. Lots and lots of tree trunks under that ice - how did they get there I wonder?
The bottom line motto of all of these useless idiots is: Raise Taxes!
Pollution from African dust storms, autos, industry and volcanos has turned the surface of Greenlands ice sheet darker over the past centuries. I’d think this has more effect than CO2. Antarctica is likely more complex as the ocean ice isn’t going away and there are volcanos.
Faster than they thought? Didn’t they already tell us the coasts would be flooded by now? Or do they mean faster than they thought the 10th time they made the claim?
Give me 30 million dollars and in 5 years I will give you the incontrovertibly correct answer:
“Who gives a ____”
Global Warming on Free Republic here, here and here
OH MY [CENSORED] GAWD!
DANG!
“NASA has launched an urgent, five-year, $30 million study that will help scientists find out.”
Payoff
when will the report about ICELAND... be forthcoming?/s
That’s almost as good as the administration (very briefly) adopting the motto “Winning The Future”. I’m sorry they didn’t hold onto that long enough to follow the Ford administration’s lead and put out “WTF” buttons.
