No meltdown: ANOTHER ship with climate-change warriors gets stuck in ice

Those who promote the belief in so-called "man-made climate change" may have a meltdown of their own upon learning this.

A ship carrying 16 "climate-change warriors" looking to document purported melting ice conditions got trapped in ice last week in the Hinlopen Strait, halfway between Norway and the North Pole.

The Sweden-flagged MS Malmo became stuck Sept. 3 off Longyearbyen, Svalbard Archipelago, according to the Maritime Bulletin.

"The ship is on Arctic tour with Climate Change documentary film team, and tourists, concerned with Climate Change and melting Arctic ice," the report said. "All 16 Climate Change warriors were evacuated by helicopter in challenging conditions, all are safe."

I know this is a repeat of sorts but with some pics. I do see some melted ice (aka water) in one of the shots. Sigh. Stoopid ice wasn't co-operating. So the research vessel had to turn back. And In July, "The Norwegian research vessel and icebreaker Kronprins Haakon (Crown Prince Haakon) was forced to turn back north of Svalbard after meeting considerably thicker ice than expected," reported Electroverse.net. Hmmmm. Mean while down south from there in NV, yesterday afternoon we had snow on the summit highway of Mt. Rose leading to Lake Tahoe. Sticking on the road. Stoopid glow bull warming ain't co-operating here either. Forty seven degrees at our house this morning.

Yeah, always tell us when it’s one which has been reported on before. Because it seems like another group of climate warriors gets ice bound at one of the poles every couple of months.

I am certain that this incident will be used to prove their point. I’m just not educated enough to understand how freezing water is evidence of melting ice. 🤷‍♂️

Very, very sad ending.

NONE of them were eaten by polar bears.

Now THAT would have been a great story, if at least ONE of them had been eaten by polar bears.

I hate sad endings.

I love the schadenfreude that comes over me when reading stories such as this.

I figured them for shorts and T shirts...

And they were saved by dudes, probably toxic masculine dudes, who use evil fossil fuels in their helicopters and ships to save these global warming tourists.

Something for those liberal thinking snowflake global warming tourists to think about.

Were they rescued by a Solar Powered Helicopter?

My first thought was they should turn down rescue because the carbon footprint to rescue them would be huge and cause the climate emergency to get even further along the panic slide. If they had integrity at all, that’s what they would do.

No doubt some ‘denier’ photoshopped all the white stuff into the picture.

LOL! Yeah, they got themselves in that mess, dig their way out. Looks like the ships crew wasn’t in as much danger as the climawarriors since they had to stay behind. (I don’t think they abandoned the boat.)
