Global Warming Expedition Stopped In Its Tracks By Arctic Sea Ice(DOH!)

A group of adventurers, sailors, pilots and climate scientists that recently started a journey around the North Pole in an effort to show the lack of ice, has been blocked from further travels by ice.

The Polar Ocean Challenge is taking a two month journey that will see them go from Bristol, Alaska, to Norway, then to Russia through the North East passage, back to Alaska through the North West passage, to Greenland and then ultimately back to Bristol. Their objective, as laid out by their website, was to demonstrate “that the Arctic sea ice coverage shrinks back so far now in the summer months that sea that was permanently locked up now can allow passage through.”

There has been one small hiccup thus-far though: they are currently stuck in Murmansk, Russia because there is too much ice blocking the North East passage the team said didn’t exist in summer months, according to Real Climate Science.

Real Climate Science also provides a graph showing that current Arctic temperatures — despite alarmist claims of the Arctic being hotter than ever — is actually below normal.

Sometimes the actual facts get in the way of the Global Warmers. Saying something does not exist does not mean that it does not exist in fact.

Saying the there is global warming and that it is caused by man does not make it so.

Climate change is caused by the Sun, not Al Gore.

The same thing happened to people trying to prove the same thing in the Antarctic six months ago.

Took weeks and many millions of dollars to rescue those fools.

Though the latter does generate more than his share of hot air.

Oh Cruel, Cruel Irony.

One report said it was “old ice”. Said with a straight face

Too bad this took place during the Rep convention, otherwise I’m SURE this would have been the lead story on CNNCBSABCCNNMSNBC tonight.

Maybe they’ll get eaten by polar bears which don’t exist while stuck in ice that doesn’t exist.

Same thing several years ago in the Arctic summer. Blocked by too much snow and ice, had to be rescued.

(Global Warming Alarmists Stuck In Antarctic Sea Ice) Monday, 30 December 2013......."The doomed Antarctic “climate research” expedition that ended up being trapped in ice was led by Chris Turney, a professor of “climate change” at the University of New South Wales in Australia. He claims emissions of essential-to-life carbon dioxide — exhaled by all humans — must be drastically curtailed by government to stop “global warming,” which has been non-existent in recent years. The controversial alarmist, who boasts of setting up a “green” business known as “Carbonscape” to profit from increasingly discredited theories underpinning climate hysteria, was on a self-proclaimed mission to “discover and communicate the environmental changes taking place in the south.”

Sounds like a similar event a couple years ago when another group of “researchers” had to be rescued by a Russian ice breaker. I thought researching involved *learning*. Maybe not.
