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

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Greenland lost 11 billion tons of ice in one day. How does that melt compare to the past?

Scientists announced Thursday that July equaled, if not surpassed, the hottest month in recorded history. But that was not the only cause for concern.

Greenland's ice sheet melted at its most rapid rate so far this summer summer on Thursday, losing 11 billion tons of surface ice to the ocean, according to data from the Polar Portal, a website run by Danish polar research institutions, and the National Snow and Ice Data Center.

Yes....when you have science like this.....it is nothing more than religion...

Twilight of the Eco-Loons: Environmental Activism Jumps the Shark

In Germany, what was reported as an all time record temperature high during last week’s heat wave, turned out to come from a weather station so badly sited that one expert estimated that the Urban Heat Island effect could be exaggerating its temperature recordings by as much as 3 degrees centigrade.

In Cambridge in the UK, similarly record-breaking highs trumpeted by the BBC, turned out to come from a similarly encroached urban site “too compromised to do anything more than supply approximate figures, rather than scientifically valid ones to tenths of a degree.”

You don't want to trust air temperatures because they could be influenced by urban heat islands, then don't.
Here are ocean temperatures, with much higher accuracies.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Yes.....and don't worry that those glaciers are sitting on top of volcanos....that wouldn't have anything to do with any melt we may be seeing....

That makes no sense, as glaciers generally not on volcanoes, and obviously not all volcanoes are going to suddenly become active all at once, like the melting glaciers are.

In the antarctic the melt is due to volcanoes under the ice dumb ass.

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Yes.....according to the religion of man made global warming...this is how you appease their global warming gods...

Give more power over your life to the global warming priesthood....they will keep the global warming god in check.

Give more tax money to the global warming priesthood.....they will use that money to build temples to the global warming god, to travel in big airplanes in pilgrimages to holy sites like in Paris, and other really nice places.......

Give the global warming priesthood the power to punish those who doubt the god of the global warming religion......

that should do it.

Nonsense.
Those warning of global warming are suggesting that we simply spend less money on burning so much fossil fuel.
That does not increase taxes or demand a cent out of anyone.
They instead suggest we do things to save money, like more mass transit, more efficient appliances, etc.

You are a blazing LIAR, EVERY plan put forth by the Man made global warming crowd involves TRILLIONS of Government dollars be spent.

The guy is just lying.
He shows data that agrees the climate is warming, but he claims not just that the actually warming is only half the model predictions, but that energy policy is based on models and not actually data.
And that is a lie.
No one is looking at the models.
They are trying to still develop models, but energy policy is ONLY based on actual data.
There is absolutely no reason to use anything but actual data.
The point of trying to perfect an accurate model is just so we can start to predict when we start getting accelerations from methane and water vapor.
So this video is lying.

Nope.
First of all, the only melt off from Antarctica can be from the ice shelves, which are not on land.
Second is that volcanoes are tiny compared to the ice surface area.
Third is that Antarctica is not experiencing very much ice melt.
It is only the Arctic that is, because only the Arctic is facing the sun most of the time.

Like what?
The ONLY plan I have ever heard of is conservation.
Using less fossil fuel.
There is no real alternative except nuclear.
Has anyone been suggesting more nuclear power plants?
Solar and wind are nice, but unreliable, so not viable.

No, the Paris Accord would have made billions for us.
The US can manufacture cleaner than anyone.
So then other countries would have been clamoring to get us to do their manufacturing for them, at a nice profit.
There is absolutely nothing in the Paris Accord that could possibly have cost us anything.
Reduction of fossil fuel consumption saves money.

Greenland is called that for a reason. There are Nordic farms under the ice sheet.

No there aren't, you moron. The name was assigned by Erik the Red, as part of the medieval equivalent of a real estate con job.

Why the hell do you constantly listen to these liars for? They elites want a global tax. Climate Change as it is known now is the vehicle for them to achieve it. The peasant citizens will be reamed again. It is wealth redistribution. And the crumbs won't make it far.

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?

Weather extremes are the hallmark of global heating - hotter than usual, cooler than usual, meters of hail in the summer falling in Mexico, 70 degrees Fahrenheit in the northernmost Canadian village (Alert, 500 miles south of the North Pole) for the first time in 215,000 years.

Remember weather isn’t climate; the planet IS on fire, but we can still get extreme blizzards. The difficulty deniers have grasping this concept is an indictment of the science curriculum in American public school systems.

70 degrees Fahrenheit in the northernmost Canadian village (Alert, 500 miles south of the North Pole) for the first time in 215,000 years.

This claim, right here, demonstrates the absolute folly of global warming science. You have no idea what the daily temperature has been in that place for the past 215,000 years. Nobody knows, and to even think it's possible to know is extreme foolishness.

So why was it named Greenland?
