The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate, at Bergen , Norway

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone.

Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.

Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.

Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.

Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.

I must apologize.

I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post - 93 years ago.

This must have been caused by the Model T Ford’s emissions.

I agree with you. I haven’t seen a Time magazine anywhere, for at least a decade.

The ‘Ben Shapiro revenge’.

He tells conservative college students to argue and protest until it comes time to take tests for the course.

Then it’s time to (evidently it’s always an anonymous Blue Book test) tell the Liberal professor exactly what they want to hear.

Graduate with the highest possible score.

Land a good job as a result, earning a huge salary.

Get wealthy.

Donate large sums to your college or university.

Then threaten to withdraw your donation unless they fire the professor who made life hell for you.

The author Tim Graham is not the subject of the article he wrote

The subject is the Slime editor Charles Alexander

Well, if and when the Koch brothers acquire Time magazine and demonstrate a conservative editorial/news coverage stance (i.e., pro-America, pro-life, pro-2A, anti-large government, balanced budget, lower taxes, etc., etc.), I MIGHT start reading it again!

Go for it, Kochs!

" ... Can you imagine what it would be like to see your life’s work suddenly go down the drain? ... "

Note that despite his preaching about the end being near, his opening line is about ... himself.

Also, can he imagine all the peoples' lives and life's work gone down the drain or half down the drain because of the consequences of his religion?

Total delusion, total detachment from a thought process which doesn't involve themselves, couched as a 'philosophy of and for others.'

The devil takes many shapes.

What’s he complaining about? It remains in the hands of a good globalist.

Go look at some Time Magazines from the 1950’s. The writing is clear, fair and informative and without a bunch of squed visuals.

If the Kochs get a controlling interest in Time, it would be hilarious if they converted it into a stridently conservative magazine.

They would need a very stern editor, but I bet they could get some top notch straight news people from the online conservative websites, and more editorial writers than you could shake a stick at. And not a single useless journalism degree among them.

The main subject sections could include stuff that the leftist MSM utterly ignores, such as a good international section, a crime section, a corrupt politician-bureaucrat-judge section, and a homemaking/economics section. So much content.

I do like the idea of more conservative or at least moderate people going into the media business...its too choke-full of far leftist radical commie types now.

I just think Kochs would be far better off to start a new magazine or newspaper, at least if they pay more than, say, ten bucks for the Corpse of Time

corpses are of little value except maybe to McD’s

“While Time and other mainstream media were churning out factual stories about climate change” — who knew that Time did facts?

Koch Industries is a big player in the oil and gas business and whose philanthropy has long funded climate denial.

Hmmm - I'm a climate denier (there is a climate, but it's too darned cold for my taste, at least right now), and I've never received a dime from the Koch Brothers. Where did I go wrong?

I thought Time had folded ages ago until I saw it at the dentist office. It was thinner than our little hometown newspaper.

What is time - about 12 pages now?

‘gets any thinner, you’ll be be to see through it.

You’ve been running it into the ground, dumbo - just to push your agenda. Youhaven’t noticed it isn’t working?
