11 billion tons of ice melted in Greenland — in just one day

One question, why here in Floor E Da, the temperature is well below normal? Just sayin...Should it be hotter everywhere since CO2 is everywhere, and if the temps go up in the southern hemi, then it should go up here also? Right?
It's called balance. Florida only represents one small area on the planet.
So does Greenland
Are you suggesting that ice melting in the Arctic has no effect on the entire ocean ?


Im suggesting that. I live on the coast. The water is exactly as high as it was 50 years ago.

Lie #1. Ice is not melting faster... epic fail


#2 You really are stupid.


Lie #3. floods occur naturally and cyclically..

Not one of the hyperbole you post has any fact to back it up.. typical left wing fool.
 
Notice the the little warmist turd completely avoids answering post 159 ?

All he can dredge up are a bunch of worthless poster based insults. That is a perfect example of childish immaturity, one who has no counterpoints to offer.

It is clear he has no honest intention to a real debate, shows his willingness to LIE, Move the goalpost, and repeats lies without justifying or defending them.

Why is he still being allowed to troll his own thread?
 
If Democrats were really that smart they would come up with a plan to get all that melted ice out here to Las Vegas' They'd move away from the coastlines too.
Build a desalination plant on the coast and run a pipeline to Lake Mead .

I like the way you're thinking but the powers to be in California aren't that bright. They have droughts every year but do you think they would invest in desalination plants? No. They're much more interested in some high speed rail that will never happen or giving illegal aliens more rights than citizens. California is richly blessed and poorly managed.
 
"Trolling" my own thread.:71:


The very fact that Glaciers are CALVING all around Greenland is a good example of glaciers advancing, it is evidence that Glaciers are expanding slowly.

Meanwhile you just keep ignoring the evidence presented to you, that shows the ONE day melt is minuscule, and a product of misleading media tripe, that over all there is actual growth of snow and ice for the year. The data was shown to you and you ignored it. The official Polar Portal website was posted to you more than one, all of it ignored.

Here as you have been doing are post a bunch of cut and paste replies, that doesn't really address what I have posted at all. You have not once actually addressed my postings content itself. You are not debating, just reacting with a bunch of evasions and Cut/paste pablums.

You are trolling.

Greenland Loses Staggering Amount Of Ice In July Heat Wave
“This is not science fiction. It is the reality of climate change,” one scientist warned.
Greenland Loses Staggering Amount Of Ice In July Heat Wave | HuffPost

"...Greenland saw a staggering melt of its ice sheet in July amid an unrelenting heat wave, producing enough water to cover all of Florida by several inches, researchers said Friday.

The semi-autonomous Danish territory, which has 82% of its surface covered in ice, lost 197 billion metric tons of ice in July, Ruth Mottram, a climate scientist with the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), tweeted Friday.

Mark Serreze, the director of the Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colorado, told The Associated Press that this year marks the island’s second-biggest melt area since 1981, when researchers started keeping such records. 2012 still has the record with nearly 90% of the island’s ice affected, but there’s still a month left in Greenland’s 2019 melt season.

That’s about Four times the 60-70 billion metric tons the DMI would normally expect to lose in July, Mottram added.

The melt comes as the record-setting heat wave in Europe moved over the Arctic island, forming a dome of warmth over the world’s second-largest ice sheet.

Martin Stendel, another DMI researcher, noted that the melt from Just the last Two Days of July amounts to the equivalent of nearly 5 inches of water covering the Entire state of Florida.

The reports out of Greenland coincide with news from Europe’s Copernicus Climate Change Service that July was either the globe’s hottest month on record or tied with July 2016 for that title. The group expects to have a formal report on the month’s temperature available Monday.

You really didn't read any of the 4 or 6 comments pointing out that the Danish Met RETRACTED those numbers and corrected them recently about a couple pages back... Jokes on you AGAIN Mensa Man...
