But the glacier comes from snow and ice that's further up. And further up, the pictures are the same. The pictures indicate the same amount of material being added to the glacier in both years.

More fundamentally, of course, is that the pictures are presented in a vacuum. What were conditions like in the winter of '28 as compared to '04? Are we comparing an unusually cold year to an unusually warm year for this spot? What were winters like, let's say, 10 years prior for each? And how do those two 10 year periods compare to other 10 year periods on record? For all we know, the glacier was twice as large in 1828 and just as small in 1704 as in 2004. Simplistic presentations such as this tell you nothing about what's happening at the site let alone globally.

Oh I concur with your observations. That's my point the Earth is always in flux. I don't believe in this fossil fuel folly. There have been suggestions that the Sun cycles and Earths relationship within our "Universe" may need to be taken into account.
