Michael “Hide The Decline” Mann needs grant money, or he will sue you.
IF it is ‘falling apart’ then something is rising in its midst, and there is no anthropomorphic excuse for that eventuality.
This reminds me of an old si-Fi- novel I read fifty five years ago in which a man decides to melt the ice caps by blowing up the cliffs diverting the Gulf Stream from the Arctic, into the arctic. Needless to say, the world would be flooded.
Can’t remember the name of the novel but the hero (if you can call him that) gets implanted with an itching compound that causes extreme underarm and crotch itching which he cannot relieve, and all the rooms were painted green.
I think it was The Atlantic, a few years ago, ran a dramatic article about the burning hot wind that was about to unfreeze the Arctic. It circulated on social media, with everyone exclaiming at the crisis.
There was no follow up article, when nothing happened.
it’s lost 11 quadrillion pounds of water since 1972? I wonder what percentage that is of 321 million cubic miles of water in the oceans? Probably not much if NYC, SF and Miami are still well above the waterline.
I haven’t seen any effects of global warming
that would justify destroying the world economy to fix.
Greenland not green, but was green before climate change a few thousand years ago?
That second paragraph sounds like his fantasy about what should happen to the flyover.
OMG
Please, please, please....don’t let a chunk of Greenland fall off and hit our family home in Maryland. If it must fall down on Maryland, let it fall on Baltimore.
It’s ludicrous.
Wait! Wut?
So, basically, that thing about Greenland melting...
That’s NASA saying “we need more money!”
Right? Am I right?
I’m right, aren’t I.
Uhhhh, yeah, ... but why do they say the glacier is growing again? :)
And if Venus suddenly veered into planet Earth, it would be devastating for 7 billion-gajillion people and their pets. THAT’S how bad it would be.
Well isn’t THAT interesting! Because something left on the surface of the Greenland icecap in 1942 turns out to be buried under 268 feet of ice and snow five decades later.
“On 15 July 1942, due to poor weather and limited visibility, six P-38 fighters of 94th Fighter Squadron/1st FG and two B-17 bombers were forced to make emergency landings on the Greenland ice field.”
“Glacier Girl, along with the unit’s five other fighters and the two B-17s, were eventually buried under 268 feet (82 m) of snow and ice that had built up over the ensuing decades.”

Glacier girl says the icecap isn’t shrinking, it’s growing.
Because the already got the “glacier is shrinking” money.
The “glacier is growing! we need money!” comes from a different funding source.
Shrinking? Please look at post #18
