Oh well... too late to do anything about it.

And you wonder why the snowflakes have insomnia?

Can’t be the first time, when Greenland was named Greenland by the Norsemen it was green.

Perhaps grass will grow there again, as when the wooly mammoths grazed there.

"For nearly 500 years, the Vikings lived and thrived in Greenland. Taking advantage of the Medieval Warm Period, they established outposts in the North Atlantic where they farmed and ranched. But quite suddenly, at the mid-point of the 15th century, they abandoned their settlements and ventured back to Scandinavia."

Now if the Vikings would only come back and repel the Muslim invaders.

“The oldest and most robust sea ice in the Arctic has reportedly began breaking up for the first time in recorded history.”

They make this sound like thousands of years of history, but we haven’t really been exploring the Arctic for more than a hundred and fifty years.

Article printed in the Washington Post, October, 1922:

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 Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.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

Reminds me of the story last week how the swiss found an old WII Plane under the ice as the ice melted due to global warming?? So how did the ice get on the plane in the first place, global cooling beginning in 1943?

...happened twice in 2018 because of warm winds and a heat wave caused by climate change.

Climate change is natural and normal. Climate is always in flux.

[Mr. K]

That darn “climate change” is causing everything!

What is the current estimate of the average change in temperature? ).001 degree?

That’ll do ‘er

[SecAmndmt]

We need a passage through the Arctic.

Time to increase my carbon footprint.

Discovered in the melting ice...
