We are dangerously close to invoking the rage of the Ice Queen ...

As a data point, the "2 trillion tons of ice melt" they are talking about represents about 0.0074% of the "land ice" in the world. They are also not mentioning ice _accumulation_ that's happened in some regions, for instance parts of Antarctica.
Also, take a look at the animation at the bottom of this page:

Most of the summer's anomalies have been wiped out - and remember the anomalies are against historical averages. Also, we're not even quite to winter yet, and it looks to be a very cold one...
We're about to the end of 2008, with sunspot activity still at a definite minimum - looks to be more cold times ahead.
(Just put it on our tab.)
It's all in New Hampshire, now.
0.0074%!!!! oh geeze run for the hills people!!!
Do you think these blatant misrepresentations are largely because of the media and maybe one or two “scientists” who play ball and give them idiotic quotes to print? I hate to think NASA scientists are in on it too.
obama’s fault......
I didnt realize how important global warming was till I saw the new “the day the earth stood still”. We better shape up, who knows when the aliens are going to come and eliminate us cause we’re destroying our planet? And Im sure when they do come they will go right after the movies stars for creating such a travesty on the silver screen.
It was named GREENLAND for a reason...
“NASA ice scientist Jay Zwally said in a telephone interview from the conference”
blah..nevermind they’re in on it
The Little Ice Age in the 1400’s, I believe was brought on by Greenland ice melt. Lasted into the mid-1700s. Could be wrong.
I never knew that Polar Bears lived on a diet of ice. I thought they drank Coca Cola. What did Polar Bears do to survive before the Polar Ice caps formed during the Ice Age?
And yet Greenland still isn't as warm and green as it was around 900 to 1300.
And if they didn’t tell us, we would never know it. That’s some crisis.
I like this site:

And where did the ice come from to begin with?
One of the worst prevaricators, James Hansen works for NASA and he’s one of the biggest global warming propagandists in existence. He deliberately fudges NASA’s weather data to create global warming scare scenarios that have no existence in reality. The lying incompetent Hansen should be fired by NASA.
All I want to know is how much has the ocean levels risen in the past 20 year as proof?
Our friends seawall down in Florida is the same distance off the water at high tide since it was put in, and that was back in the 50’s.
Notice the headline reads: 2 trillion tons of ice melted..
We are talking about it
Had it read: 0.0074% of ice melted...
No one would even bother to read it.
Global warming is a socialist plot to surren der control of the government to environmentalist WHACKOS. Don’t buy into it.
