Story at link uses mixed media so it is hard to transfer text. Going to the link is worth the trouble. Watts documents how melting glaciers in the Antarctic, a geologic event first reported in 1909, are being hyped to coincide with Obama's global warming scare tactics.

the collapse of the Antarctic ice sheet has already begun

Good. The damage is done. Now the carbon alarmists can shut up and sit down.

They are "very concerned" about ice melting in western Antarctica. Below is a map of Antarctic volcanoes. Notice anything about it?

The vast majority of Antarctic “glacier” is actually an ice pack covering open ocean.

Melting of ocean ice does not cause a proportional increase in the level of the oceans even if all of the ice melted completely in pretty much the same way the level of your Coke in a glass does not increase when the ice floating in the glass melts

A very substantial percentage of the Antarctic ice pack could melt with minimal change in ocean level

Mt. Siple — a reminder of perhaps the greatest Eagle Scout and polar scientist of the 20th century:

Helped build Little America, invented wind chill factor, and helped save the U.S. Army in Korea. I wonder what he’d think of all of this.
