I told you Right Wing Nuts that we needed a carbon tax!

[henkster]

So when will they start raising cattle there, as the Vikings did back in the Medieval Warm Period? Last I heard, it was still too cold in Greenland for that.

“similar rapid melting occurs about every 150 years”

This little fact will be ignored.

"This was so extraordinary that at first I questioned the result: was this real or was it due to a data error?" Son Nghiem of Nasa's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena said in the release.

I do not believe anything this administration says.

Lora Koenig, another Goddard glaciologist, told Nasa similar rapid melting occurs about every 150 years. But she warned there were wide-ranging potential implications from this year’s thaw. [blah, blah, blah...]

In this instance of this month’s extreme melting, Mote said there was evidence of a heat dome over Greenland: or an unusually strong ridge of warm air.

The dome is believed to have moved over Greenland on 8 July, lingering until 16 July.

So it might expose my European ancestors that farmed Greenland before the current ice age.

It’s called SUMMER, in the northern hemisphere. Sometimes these things occur, but most likely winter will come again.

[txrefugee]

When the next Ice Age commences, these “experts” will take it as a sign of man-made global warming. True believers do not admit mistakes, particularly when they think science is infallible, in spite of much contrary evidence.

It's freaking July, one of the warmest months in the year, in the Northern Hemisphere. Of course, the ice is going to melt. Let's look back in December and see how much ice is there then. I thought Obama was going to stop the rise of the oceans and everyone around the world was supposed to love us when Odummer got into office?

"This is now the seventh summer in a row with this pattern of warm air being lifted up onto the ice sheet on the summer months," he said.

Warm air?? In the summer?
And this warm air is being lifted up? Is that even possible???

I can see why scientists are flabbergasted.

[Rummyfan]

WGAS?

[badgerlandjim]

We need lots more of that since the ocean level dropped four feet because of Obama being elected. Melt faster!

[Paladin2]

OMG!

Unexpected and unrepresented.

How long have been measuring daily loss gain, especially during the hottest weeks of the year?

OMG!

Unexpected and unrepresented.

How long have we been measuring daily loss gain, especially during the hottest weeks of the year?

And the water level in New York harbor hasn’t risen one inch above normal.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

We’ve been warned millions of times by “scientists” that data taken over years or decades does not indicate trends...yet now the sky is falling because the ice melted a bit faster in ONE MONTH? Flip flopping much?

[Red Badger]

The Greenland ice sheet melted at a faster rate this month than at any other time in recorded history,

And that 'recorded history' goes back how far in geologic time? An eye blink at most...........

[Anti-Bubba182]

"..Scientists attributed the sudden melt to a heat dome, or a burst of unusually warm air, which hovered over Greenland from 8 July until 16 July.

Greenland had returned to more typical summer conditions by 21 or 22 July, Mote told the Guardian..."

Pffttt!!!

[New Jersey Realist]

When will these nuts give this crap up?

[SoConPubbie]

And the one thing these “Climate Scientists” will ignore is.....

Wait for it...

Wait for it.....

The dramatic increase in Solar Flare activity!
