According to a study recently published in the journal Science, and latched onto by USAToday, more than 400,000 years ago, Greenland was actually green. Yes, scientists say, the massive island was an ice-free landscape, and was perhaps even covered with trees.
This is important to know, avers study co-lead author Paul Bierman of the University of Vermont, because it tells us "Greenland's ice sheet is fragile.” Bierman stated: "All by itself, during a warm period very similar to today, the ice sheet melted away 400,000 years ago. That was without fossil fuel emissions into the atmosphere.”
An ice sheet melted “all by itself?” Here is a “scientist” telling us that we must immediately change our lifestyles and bankrupt our economies to prevent something that occurred naturally and without human influence 400,000 years ago!
After Greenland’s ice sheet turned to water, whined the climate alarmists, the sea-level rose at least 5 feet.
This caused the fish-wrap factory USAToday to solemnly observe: “This means that the ice sheet on Greenland may be more sensitive to human-caused climate change than previously thought – and will be vulnerable to irreversible, rapid melting in the coming centuries.”
Say what?! No, it means that the ice sheet on Greenland was provably sensitive to non-human-caused climate change (warming)…and that the melting is reversible…because that is exactly what occurred after the last melting, and why Greenland is more frozen than green today!
For some reason, the birdcage liner USAToday chose University of Pennsylvania meteorologist Michael Mann, who was not part of the study and whose “hockey stick” graph of global warming has been widely discredited, to review the “study.” Mann obligingly expectorated: "We are coming perilously close to some potentially critical climate tipping points.”

Duh! Greenhouses. Sheesh! 😂👍
A perpetual stochastic and dynamic process. Always was, always will be.
The warmest times were the most prosperous generations.
But what about the Polar Bears?
I’ve tried to explain this to Greenies before but their response is: “Well, it’s happening at a MUCH FASTER PACE now, due to Man!”
Whatever. Get back to me in another 400,000 years, LOL!
And the left love scare mongering by claiming that atmospheric co2 is “reaching a tipping point at 440 ppm “ yet years ago at ospheric co2 has been over 800 ppm and life didn’t cease to thrive.
What’s the Mark Twain quote, truth is lacing its shoes while a lie is halfway around the world?…
Bingo! As Tim Ball showed us nine years ago, the entire Global Warming hoax was invented by the neo-malthusian Club of Rome cult, specifically to reduce population by crippling Western culture and technology.

And when the globe begins coo.ing again, all by itself, the left will once again be screaming about “the big freeze”, and how it’s gonna wipe everything out- just like they were doing in the 60’s 70’s 80’s etc- the. They discovered that the weather wasn’t cooperating with their asinine I e claims. So they changed their message to one where we are all gonna burst into flames any second now.
I had a blog for years where I tried to co bat the nonsense of “Man Caused” climate change, back when the claims were about “global warming” (not the term climate change back then). I thought there was a chance of educating people with cold hard facts, and had hope that people like Darrel Issa (of all people) and Marc morano (who now runs climate depot . Org), were rating to educate congress with facts showing mankind is not responsible.
But it soon became clear that the world WANTED to be,eive they were causing climate ate change because the left made them feel guilty just for being alive. The lie was being swallowed en mass, and it became clear that the lie was going to be world policy despite any facts against it.
Climate depot . Org has a ton of scientific articles proving man is not causing climate change. Actual scientific papers on the issue. But of course he left ostracized them and ridicule them as being unscientific (despite there being g tons of scientific papers o. The issue o. The site)- and have been successful in painting Marc as a “nut job science denier”-
Correct. The recent cooling period was dubbed the "Little Ice Age" and that kind of stuck as the common vernacular, though incorrect, to describe the smaller warming and cooling cycles that last only 1,000 years.
The left Invent their own brand of “ New truth” and the wo4ld gobbles it down as gospel truth. Their “New Truth” is a blatant lie, and the more asinine it sounds, the better they like it because they force people to accept it no matter how redicu,ous it sounds, a d that is a form of power to them- getting g people to accept the insane lies, a d turning them hostile to anyone who tries to refute the lies.
The Climate change agenda is really a spiritual battle between the forces of good agaisnt the forces of evil. They are proving the bible right where it says that in the end times people will prefer lies to the truth. Good becomes bad, and bad becomes mandatory acceptance by force from the left. (We see it playing out in other issues like trannies, Lgbtq, blm, crt, etc, where the left are forcing society to accept evil as good)
Or with the oceans I tell them to wake me up when Pevensey Castle in the UK has the tide come in so prisoners can be drowned in it like was done during the Medieval Warm Period. (Hint: the castle is now a mile from the coastline and the castle didn't move, the coastline did because sea levels aren't as high as they used to be.)
The polar bears that are thriving today despite the frantic hysterical claims of the left that they would die out?
There was a meme I wish I could find again which showed the asinine claims by the left, and the massive increase in polar bear numbers in recent years. It was pretty funny, but I can’t recall now how it went.
Science? Fuggediboutit!
the whole point of all the propaganda
is to declare a climate emergency
authorizing the “temporary” suspension of civil liberties
a la covid19 pandemic
it is coming
Michael Mann has moved from East Anglia, whose reputation he destroyed, to the University of Pennsylvania, whose reputation is being destroyed by Joe Biden and China.
This is the biggest whole in the theory: to prove the warming is anthropogenic, they would have to prove that current warming is not naturally caused. To do that they would have to understand and be able to simulate the previous warming reliably. They cannot.
So they are asking us to pay trillions in known costs to avoid a very unlikely but high-impact event, which is a typical scam that preys upon the human bias to exaggerate improbable but high-impact events.
Indeed. The periods with the highest CO2 percentages (and warmer climates) have been the periods where both plant life and animal have been the most prolific.
It is important to understand that CO2 rises after the planet has warmed, not before. It is not a cause of warming but a result.
We are being lied to by the proponents of the global-warming hoax.
Yup. Deep Ice core samples prove that the climate always rises in temp first, then 800-1000 years later, co2 rises- proving that co2 is not the driver of climate change.
The left surpass this info because it refutes their claims
