Scientists say that the world is experiencing a gradual but accelerating CO2 induced trend towards higher temperatures that will, over the next decades and centuries, have a dangerously negative effect on climate patterns, agriculture, sea levels, tropical habitability, etc., etc., and you conclude that that means that mountain tops nearly six miles high should have immediately (or, using your example, years in the past) become warm and balmy in spite of the altitude or else the climate scientists' warning are bunk. Is that it? LOLOLOL. Do you have to take 'retard pills' or were you born this way?Take a hike up Mt. Everest and stumble over the corpses of climbers who froze to death during the mild summers.

Who's not winning???
Another year of weather disasters like 2010 and 2011, and none of us will be winning. And there will be a paradigm change of the voting populaces view of climate change and those that have been lying to them about it.
Really? How many people died? I'll raise you swimming pools. Swimming pools in the US,Another year of weather disasters like 2010 and 2011, and none of us will be winning.

drown more people then all your storms combined. A tsunami will drown more but I think even you won't try to attribute a tsunami to global warming...or will you?

In a moment of boredom, I bothered to check up on the walleyedretard's claims, even though I know he lies constantly.
From the CDC's Unintentional Drowning: Fact Sheet
In 2007, there were 3,443 fatal unintentional drownings (non-boating related) in the United States, averaging ten deaths per day. An additional 496 people died from drowning in boating-related incidents.1,2
More than one in five people who die from drowning are children 14 and younger.1
Natual Water Settings (such as lakes, rivers, or the ocean). The percent of drownings in natural water settings increases with age. When a location was known, 65% of drownings among those 15 years and older occurred in natural water settings.8
So, let's assume that 2007 was a fairly typical year and start with the total number of deaths by drowning (non-boating) which is 3,443. One fifth or a bit more of those are children 14 and younger which gives us close to 700 there, let's say, with some unknown but fairly large percentage of them dying in swimming pools. Of the approx 2,750 people 15 and over who drown in that year, 65%, or about 1800, didn't do it in swimming pools leaving about 960 who may have died in pools. Let's be generous and say all of them did and all of the kids which gives us about 1700 swimming pool deaths per year.
It's difficult to find a total figure on weather disaster related deaths per year but I did find a few items...
2011 was an exceptionally destructive and deadly year for tornadoes; worldwide, at least 576 people perished due to tornadoes
That's just tornadoes. We would still have to look at all of the hurricane, tropical storm and tropical cyclone disasters. Here's a recent one that struck Central America.

I can just hear ol' walleyed muttering: "still nowhere near 1700 swimming pool deaths"....LOL...
....of course, so far, we've just scratched the surface of weather disaster related deaths....here's a big one from just a few years ago that gives some sense of the scale of the kind of weather disasters Old Rocks was talking about and the walleyedretard was idiotically trying to compare to swimming pool deaths just in the USA. And of course, when people die in swimming pools, it doesn't result in billions of dollars in associated damages like some of these tropical cyclones and hurricanes have.
Cyclone Nargis

The cyclone made landfall in Burma on Friday, May 2, 2008, causing catastrophic destruction and at least 138,000 fatalities.
Gee, walleyed.....138,000 deaths from just one storm....that's equal to over 80 years of swimming pool deaths.....now do you see why people call you a retard???
These meatheads think that natural catastrophies(sic) started only after 1998!!!Really? How many people died? I'll raise you swimming pools. Swimming pools in the US,

No, silly retard, we can see that climate/weather related disasters are increasing in numbers and severity as more energy accumulates in the system and atmospheric water vapor levels rise. As usual, you are completely clueless which is not surprising given your official position on anything scientific.

No CrazyF*ckhead, in your case the culprit responsible for your retardation is probably just lousy genes, but it's certainly possible that you were dropped on your head repeatedly when you were an infant.

Although six climbers, including one Sherpa, died during the 2016 season, experts say the string of deadly avalanches and earthquakes that forced repeated evacuations of the mountain, which claimed at least 40 lives over the past 48 months, may not be a thing of the past. “It is shrinking,” Dr. Nima Namgyal Sherpa, an Everest expedition organizer, told VOA’s Tibetan Service via satellite phone from the Nepal-side Everest base camp.“It's melting every year.” While climbers and expedition organizers have long said there are good years and bad years, lucky seasons and unlucky ones, scientists and locals alike now say the mountain's environmental conditions have been irrevocably altered.
Trekkers make their way to Dingboche, a popular Mount Everest base camp, in Pangboche, Nepal
Norbu Tenzing Norgay, son of the first man known to have summited alongside Sir Edmund Hillary, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, says some glaciers in the region have undergone such extensive melting that crevasses are nearly too wide to traverse. “My brother was on a mountain recently where it was normally full of snow, and he said he wasn’t going back because there wasn't enough,” Norgay told VOA. “He had to use more ladders to cross those crevasses.” “Last year around this time, it was much colder, but this year it is unusually warm," said Dr. Nima Namgyal Sherpa, who has spent time on the mountain for each of the past six seasons.“Usually we have these streams coming down in the end of May, but now it comes quite early for the season.”
Satellite data
Joseph Shea, senior glacier hydrologist at the Kathmandu-based International Center for Integrated Mountain Development, says satellite data that measures glacial volume shows at least one square meter of annual shrinkage.Last year, an international research team lead by Shea predicted that 70 to 99 percent of Everest glaciers would disappear by 2100, and that the melting has reached an unstoppable point. “The glaciers there are in retreat, so we’re losing area every year,” he told VOA Tibetan.“But more importantly, we are losing volumes. "Even if you stop emitting all the greenhouse gas and climate stops changing today, you’ll still have glacier losses because the system is now out of balance, it's out of equilibrium,” he added.“So, even for the next 150 years, the glacial retreat will continue without any additional forcing.”
Long term, far-reaching consequences
Well this is interesting. Scientists are still concerned about the rest of the world's ice caps and glaciers, but this set of glaciers have lost no ice.
Just a quick aside, they busted a man stealing glacial ice for restaurants to serve drinks with in Chile. Tons of ice. Tons and Tons.

Here's the article from the Guardian.
The world's greatest snow-capped peaks, which run in a chain from the Himalayas to Tian Shan on the border of China and Kyrgyzstan, have lost no ice over the last decade, new research shows.
The discovery has stunned scientists, who had believed that around 50bn tonnes of meltwater were being shed each year and not being replaced by new snowfall.
The study is the first to survey all the world's icecaps and glaciers and was made possible by the use of satellite data. Overall, the contribution of melting ice outside the two largest caps Greenland and Antarctica is much less then previously estimated, with the lack of ice loss in the Himalayas and the other high peaks of Asia responsible for most of the discrepancy.
Bristol University glaciologist Prof Jonathan Bamber, who was not part of the research team, said: "The very unexpected result was the negligible mass loss from high mountain Asia, which is not significantly different from zero."
