Folks,, Better hit the FReepathon thread today and beat the rush before we extinct spontaneously or sumthin’. Thanks!
Green is good.
Great. I’ll be able to retire to my summer home in Northern Greenland.
Global warming beats the heck out of global cooling. In a warm climate, you can sometimes get 2 growing seasons. In a cold climate, you’re lucky to get one season.
Starvation sucks.
The Spotted Owl and Darter Snail will be glad to hear this.
Soom new housing developments will spring up there.
If there’s something we’re doing to create lush vegetation in the arctic, we should keep it up.
Is having another area where trees and some cold weather food crops can grow not a good thing? The last time the climate warmed in recorded history, exploration and knowledge really advanced, and a group of Vikings were able to settle in Greenland, because it really was...
How many glo-bull warming predictions have come true so far?
Love how they concentrate on the small differences in the northern hemisphere. Sea ice in the southern hemisphere is ahead of the multi-year averages... by a larger margin than the northern ‘deficiency.’
In other words, globally speaking (and the enviros all want us to ‘think globally’), we’ve got more sea ice than normal.
Don't the global warming alarmists always tell us that trees and their capability to store carbon safely is a good thing?
Therefore, if global warming stimulates the growth of more trees, then global warming must be a good thing too!
First, I fail to see how more arable land is necessarily a bad thing, for humans or any other species on the planet.
Second, if billions more acres shift from being covered by ice to being green with plant life, wouldn’t that added green space absorb radically huge amounts of CO2?
It is April 4th 2013 and it is currently -24 below 0 in Cambridge Bay Canada right now. I’m sure the locals in Cambridge Bay wouldn’t mind some global warming.
This kind of talk reminds me of Sheldon, Howard, Leonard and Raj arguing about keeping the storyline consistent in the Star Trek fantasies.
These folks are standing on the platform of the station, still talking, not realizing that the train has done left without them.
Global warming will cause longer growing seasons and more land to become arable as the permafrost belt retreats, resulting in increased food production. But count on the liberal/leftists to argue that increased food production will lead to more obesity.
Yeah, it will happen in 2050, in fact it will happen every year leading up to 2050. Up here in Alaska, we call it spring.
Once that nasty old ice is gone they can dig into the ground and reveal the fossilized remains of the tropical plants that once grew there.
They date from even before Fred and Barney were driving around in their SUV’s made of logs and Stone.
