What a relief!
I’ll sleep easier tonight, with this knowledge... ;]
Great... Just great... Now what am I supposed to do with that beach house in Flagstaff?!?
Algore is deeply saddened.
“The researchers found that from 13,000 to 7,000 years ago, when sea levels rose by more than 330 feet.....”
Well, I’m just glad there are folks like Big Al Gore around THIS time to stop this kind of tom-foolery.
This seems an appropriate thread to cite my recent observations on the retreat of glacial ice.
On a recent trip to Alaska and Canada I had the opportunity to observe several glaciers. Many had roads that allowed one to get close to the toe to make close observation. There were signs as you came closer.
In the csse of the Exit Glacier near Seward Alaska, the signs began perhaps 2 miles from the present toe location. They faithfully trcked the receding toe location. In the case of the Exit Glacier, a national park, the signs began in 1891. That is to say that the US government has been tracking receding glaciers since the 1890’s or for more than a hundred years.
In no instance were the tracking signs initiation less than the 1930’s. The enviros like to cite the glacial retreat but never let us know we have been doing the tracking for more than a hundred years.
Doubt me ..... go have a look. You’ll be glad you did.
“The researchers found that from 13,000 to 7,000 years ago, when sea levels rose by more than 330 feet”.
What were those people back then burning to cause this? It was caused by man, right? It just had to be. Al said so.
I wonder, Noah’s ark?
Warming cannot make polar ice melt a drop until it reaches 32 degrees F at the ice fields. The point of scrimmage is only a very narrow latitude. That's all we have to manage, with man-made clouds, chemicals or nucleotides to raise the freezing point, plumbing of colder water from the pole, etc. We should develop a tool belt of ice management technologies but not do a thing until the oceans have risen worldwide a real and sizable amount. To date that just hasn't happened.
whenever researchers declare something is true, that’s when I worry about the opposite being true. I’ve never worried about Global Warming, but maybe now I should.
It’s Bush’s fault that this ice isn’t unstable so that the “political left” all over the world do have something else to complain about that’s Bush’s fault! So, it’s Bush’s fault either way!
