How did Bush do this?
He may be greater than we ever thought.

Notice there’s no press about the EXPANDING Antartic ice and the cooling trend going on there?

Scientists have found at least one natural magma hotspot under the Arctic island that could be pitching in.


God forbid they go out on a limb if it debunks GW.

You mean there are actually still NATURAL geologic, oceonographic and meteorologic events occurring on the planet?

Who’d uv thunk it?

In recent years, Greenland’s ice has been melting more and flowing faster into the sea — a record amount of ice melted from the frozen mass this summer, according to recently released data — and Earth’s rising temperatures are suspected to be the main culprit.

But clues to a new natural contribution to the melt arose when scientists discovered a thin spot in the Earth’s crust under the northeast corner of the Greenland Ice Sheet where heat from Earth's insides could seep through, scientists will report here this week at a meeting of the American Geophysical Union.

“The behavior of the great ice sheets is an important barometer of global climate change,” said lead scientist Ralph von Frese of Ohio State University. “However, to effectively separate and quantify human impacts on climate change, we must understand the natural impacts too.”

Ralph, be careful, you are about 5 seconds from being thrown under the bus by the Global Warming Crowd!

I wish he would go up there and check it out. Then not come back.

First for words still tells the story of what these wing-nuts really think is to blame.

I’ll bet Al is pretty happy about this, ‘cause it points out that his thoughts on Greenland are on a magma cum laude level!

OK, OK. I’ll keep my day job.

Since the manmade-global-warming debate began, I’ve contended that we don’t know enough about magma hotspots (especially under the oceans) and possible magma shifts to rule magma out as one of the top two (sun=#1) causes of surface-level temperature changes.

Glad to see the idea receiving further attention.

“Magma may be melting Greenland ice “

This can’t be.
Everyone knows you can’t have volcanoes and icefields in the same country!
(/sarc!)
(And of course, Iceland is just one counter-example)

Ignore, ignore, ignore. There is nothing to see here. Please move along quickly. The information presented here has no scientific value. Ignore, ignore, ignore.

Greenland Ice Melt Haiku

I do not know how,
But I know absolutely,
Magma is my fault.

Magma may be melting Greenland ice

Nope. No way, no how. Haven't you heard? The debate is OVER. There is a CONSENSUS among scientists. Man is causing Global Warming, which is in turn melting the Greenland glaciers, among others.

It's too late to be coming in here willy nilly with some new "evidence" to the contrary.

"Magma May Be Melting Greenland Ice"

Yeah, right!

Next thing you know they will be telling us that fire melts steel.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha......
