Global warming scaremongers refuted as Arctic ice growing, on track to be the most ice in 2 decades
American Thinker ^ | 11/24/2021 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 11/24/2021 8:04:22 AM PST by SeekAndFind

The scariest scenario of the global warming doomsayers has been the idea that the melting Arctic ice cap would put coastal cities underwater. For example:

‘Scientists in the US have presented one of the most dramatic forecasts yet for the disappearance of Arctic sea ice,’ reported the BBC back in 2007. ‘Their latest modelling indicates that northern polar waters could be ice-free in summers within just 5-6 years.’

Professor Wieslaw Maslowski from the Department of Oceanography of the US Navy predicted an ice-free Arctic Ocean by the summer of 2013.

Maslowski added that his prediction was on the conservative side, too: “Our projection of 2013 for the removal of ice in summer is not accounting for the last two minima, in 2005 and 2007. So given that fact, you can argue that may be our projection of 2013 is already too conservative.”

There are plenty more such forecasts:

There is “Climate Change” on Earth every minute of every day of every year....

Added to the list!

Regarding alleged global warming, government elites also need to explain why CO2 fails to hold the heat down in the midday shadow of a solar eclipse.

Solar eclipse 2017: How much did the temperature change during the eclipse? (8.22.17)

And we're still waiting for global warming elites to explain why they failed to predict other relatively recent cold weather events.

Insights welcome.

LOL, so many will ignore this “Science” to fit their own narrative.


At some point, it will be cited as an example of proof of global warming.

gloBULL warming causes record ice flow

The same forces causing climate change are also responsible for the divergent equatorial flow from its conventional path to a recon vectored parabolic transitional flow on a biased east/west axis which nominally causes a bilateral path which is followed by the previous but no longer in place equatorial flow.

You forgot .... If These Trends Continue & Further Studies Needed!

Yes I did and I thank you for being so observant. :-)

Global warming, global cooling, climate change. 100% Bullshit masquerading under different names.

If you plug your atmosphere efficient car or truck into an electrical outlet to recharge it, where does the electricity come from? Dollars to doughnuts it comes from a power plant using fossil fuels to generate electricity. So, what are you accomplishing?

Come on Man, we have known since the 1970’s that all our Pollution from burning fossil fuels was going to plunge the world into a cataclysmic Ice Age, it was but for Magic that it turned around and began Cooking the Planet and All life on it in 1983. Maybe the Magic has worn off??

“the idea that the melting Arctic ice cap would put coastal cities underwater.”

WRONG. Melting ocean ice doesn’t raise sea level. Only melting land ice can do that.

More for the record:
Many scientists have attempted to estimate when the Arctic will be "ice-free", among them Peter Wadhams who in 2014 predicted that by 2020 "summer sea ice [will] disappear,"[25][26] Wadhams and several others have noted that climate model predictions have been overly conservative regarding sea ice decline.[2][27] A 2013 paper suggested that models commonly underestimate the solar radiation absorption characteristics of wildfire soot.[28] In 2007, Professor Wieslaw Maslowski from the Naval Postgraduate School, California, predicted removal of summer ice by 2013;[29] subsequently, in 2013, Maslowski predicted 2016 ±3 years.[30] A 2006 paper predicted "near ice-free September conditions by 2040".[31] Overland and Wang (2013) investigated three different ways of predicting future sea ice levels.[32] The IPCC AR5 (for at least one scenario) estimates an ice-free summer might occur around 2050.[5] The Third U.S. National Climate Assessment (NCA), released May 6, 2014, reports that the Arctic Ocean is expected to be ice free in summer before mid-century. Models that best match historical trends project a nearly ice-free Arctic in the summer by the 2030s.[33][34] However, these models do tend to underestimate the rate of sea ice loss since 2007. Based on the outcomes of several different models, Overland and Wang (2013) put the early limit for a sea ice free summer Arctic near 2040.[32] Professor James Anderson of Harvard University envisions the Arctic Ice gone by the early 2020s. "The chance that there will be any permanent ice left in the Arctic after 2022 is essentially zero," he said in June 2019.[35] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arctic_ice_pack

    The planet Earth is a study in the balance of energy received with the amount of energy radiated.  On a yearly basis, the balance stays pretty much the same throughout the year, as the exposure to solar radiation of any specific surface point increases, then decreases, as the axial tilt of the earth takes us through the seasons.

    And the greenhouse gas that makes all this possible?  Water vapor.  The cycle of freezing, thawing, evaporation and condensation all takes place within a fairly narrow range, and astonishingly, most of that is confined to temperatures under which life on earth has evolved.  Carbon dioxide does not, cannot, perform the same or anywhere near the same effect as water vapor in the environment that exists in what is commonly known as the biosphere, that level of the atmosphere and bodies of waters in which living creatures live and thrive.

    Alas, the hurricane.  Deadly and destructive to those in its path.  Yet a blessing to our fragile planet: a natural thermostat that sustains life by reflecting away some of the scorching rays our Sun.

If Global Warming fails to remove Nasty Nancy’s
new millions dollar mansion which sits on
Jupiter Island (Florida); there’s always the
possibility that the common hurricane might.
What are the chances? If not eliminate the
structure completely, at the least do
serious damage to the estate; even with that
wall she will surely build in order to keep
out the riffraff.
Interesting, those who rule continue to ignore their own
ASSumptions. Gore, ‘illary, O’Biden, the half breed.
The empty heads found here can easily
substitute for water wings should they be needed.

A blessed Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Hey, all the best to you and family, V K.

Hey, it’s a short 30 minute drive from Jupiter Island to Mar a Lago. But Nanzi a dark galaxy away in terms of the common sense and integrity of our favorite President.

It has been decades since I realized that it is completly useless to rationally discuss the issue with these people. In this, they are incorruptable and unchangeable. To them it is an emotion and a religion.

It is was so frustrating to me, then when I realized that it was useless to argue with them, the frustration left me.

When you realize in an argument with them, as you would near the goalpost of factual support for the rational position, they would simply move that goal post not merely further back, but someone different altogether.

I have found that ridicule, hard ridicule, unavoidable, unassailable, spot-on-target ridicule is devastating to these people. Not all. But some.

I hate being incivil, but that is a rule for a rational world, and this one sometimes seems to get less rational by the day.

You know, there really should be an authoritative book on exactly an intelligent people, the Japanese, allowed their military to totally take over the country, which led to their expansion into China, Korea, and Pearl Harbor.

In my quick scan of Google, I could find no such book.

Same goes for Germany and Venezuela. Americans need to see through the eyes of people whose lives and freedoms were totally destroyed by the leaders they let take control.
