Polar scientists reveal dramatic new evidence of climate change

It seems unthinkable, but for the first time in human history, ice is on course to disappear entirely from the North Pole this year.

Aspen colorado re-opened on Memorial day because they have so much snow and most North American ski resorts have reported record snow falls. Global warming is great.

There has been more snowfall there because there is more moisture in the air than before. You can expect that to become a normal pattern.

Yeah, the global warming thing is probably a hoax. But the price of gas is not.

And I like having some money left over from my paycheck.

Especially when I get hungry.

Do you really want to do something about gas prices while helping the environment too? Then go to www.moregas4you.mpgproduct.com and www.moregas4you.ffivision.com to see how you can help yourself and the environment.

These global warming related activities specialy carbon trading is a cleverly crafted
racket riding on the coat tails of a natural climate change phenomena to make
Trillions (45 Trillion$ by their own admission) and really achieving nothing in the
end. Let alone stopping climate change they do not care if they bankrupt nations
and deplete them of resources that they could have used for disaster management
etc.. Expect unending propaganda in every news cycle , they hope if they “repeat
lies infinite number of times it will become truth , bigger the lie higher the chances of
success”– Joseph Gobbels (Germany 1940)

I am amazed that some people actually believe they can change the natural course of the earth. The earth is ever so gradually inching toward the sun. That makes the temp go up eventually. The earth used to be a melted lump of lava and gases. It will eventually return to that. Trading in your SUV for a compact car will not change it. The ozone? When a volcano erupts, it destroys more of the ozone layer, than all the emmissions we could ever produce. I would gladly give up using fossil fuels if it would save the earth. But somehow, I feel I would be one of the few riding around on a horse, or in an electric car.

Yeah, when I start seeing all those multi-billionaires giving up their 300-400 yachts (with helicopters mounted on them), and their two private jets and sandbagging their multi-million dollar estates in Malibu for fear of rising ocean levels, I might get concerned and start paying attention to Al Bore's Global Warming cartoon.
Those people love to tell me that I should be turning off a light when I'm not using it, but I sure as hell know they ain't about to change a f'ng thing in their life....Huh, downsize their 350 foot yacht to a 200 foot yacht and give up one of their private jets....Yeah right, fat chance that's going to happen.
Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm all for a clean environment, but living on a clean planet will not change what the planet will do on it's own - naturally. We could all return to living the way the North American tribes did 1000 years ago and it would not make a bit of difference regarding Global Warming or for that matter Global Cooling.
The earth will do what it will do and there is not a damn thing we can do about it.

i'm sure it has NOTHING to do with the volcanic activity under the ice cap.

There's plenty of examples of how human activity has changed the earth's environment, starting with the ozone layer being harmed by CFCs, and then recovering (for awhile) by their banning.(The ozone layer is again in distress over some parts of the globe due, also, to human activity, including carbon emissions.) So you're premise is nutty, and you don't know what a carbon sink or what homeostasis is, anyway.

The right wing constapo morons will never give up their consumption habits, no matter what mere scientists say. Why listen to scientists when you can listen to an oxy impaired, racist like Rush L?

OTOH, a collapse of the financial system might reduce their joy rides in Hummers and pickup trucks for a spell. Yeehaw!
