Breitbart ^ | 09/09/2019 | James Delingpole

Posted on 09/09/2019 1:02:32 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Yet another greenie expedition to the Arctic to raise awareness of ‘global warming’ has been scuppered by unexpected large quantities of ice. This brings to a total of six the number of Ship of Fools expeditions where weather reality has made a mockery of climate theory. According to Maritime Bulletin:

Arctic tours ship MS MALMO with 16 passengers on board got stuck in ice on Sep 3 off Longyearbyen, Svalbard Archipelago, halfway between Norway and North Pole. The ship is on Arctic tour with Climate Change documentary film team, and tourists, concerned with Climate Change and melting Arctic ice. All 16 Climate Change warriors were evacuated by helicopter in challenging conditions, all are safe. 7 crew remains on board, waiting for Coast Guard ship assistance.

Wow - so these climate warriors, who are true believers, burned up a life-time of fossil fuels on a pleasure tour. Flying and driving to the port of departure, the boat itself, helicopter rescue, and likely an ice breaker to free the boat, and return to their homes.

All that massive carbon footprint for a pleasure tour to make a point. And the point is? That they don’t believe in what they are saying demonstrated by how much carbon footprint they personally are willingly and happy to create?

I wonder if they feel a little silly.

Maybe misled or lied to?

There’s good money to be made betting that any given expedition to “study the vanishing ice” will in fact get stuck by large quantities of “vanished ice”.

No doubt the upcoming nbc climageddon series will include this in their reporting.

Deniers! It is settled science that the Arctic is melting and therefore they were not trapped. They should be placed in Climate Change reeducation camp.

“Climate change” is a hoax. Come arrest me for felony denial.

Understand that the term “climate change” does not refer to actual meteorological phenomena but, rather, to the sordid rat-king of lies, scams and power grabs that we are commanded to accept as pagan gospel lest we burn to a crisp or drown or suffer...whatever the Armageddon du jour is.
When you say “climate change is a grift,” and you should as often as possible, you are pointing out that this green-on-the-outside/red-on-the-inside fake frenzy is really just a set of intertwined grifts transparently designed to separate you from your freedom and your property in the name of somehow adjusting the weather.

Leave them there. Like other Polar expeditions, they can resort to cannibalism when the food runs out.

Those helicopters probably cost a pretty penny in carbon credits. I’m sure they have receipts.

Isn’t it time for them to change their narrative? If the ice isn’t melting, it must be a new ice age, just like in 1978. All because Trump withdrew from the Paris Accord and Dubya withdrew from Kyoto.

They’re liberal (communist) morons to the nth degree. It’s ok for them to do this because it furthers the communist agenda itme, but it’s not ok for us to enlarge our “carbon footprint” because....well....it’s not good for the climate or earth.
Should have just left the imbeciles on the boat...forever.

As amazing as it is some people never do understand how stupid they really are. They never feel shame or guilt or any form of embarrassment and they never learn anything from their stupid mistakes or think they should.

It is the job of the coast guard to maintain navigable water ways and rescue ships in distress. However, I believe this is Norway Coast Guard - not US.
