James Hansen Wishes he Wasn’t So Right about Global Warming

[Crick]

Antarctica was once a complete continent 50 million years ago, and as we see below, WAS ATTACHED to South America. Ice age glaciers scrape off what is "loose" on a continent. They only leave bedrock and mountains. Most of the "surface" of Antarctica today is below sea level. That was not the case 50 million years ago. And, hilariously enough, the image has the caption "Lately (ie the past 40+ million years) it (AA's ice) seems to be thickening - BECAUSE OF GLOBAL WARMING.

Ice thinning = Global Warming
Ice thickening = Global Warming

EVERYONE GOT THAT!!!

Morons - anyone who thinks there is any real "Science" involved with the bullshit completely discredited theory of Global Warming

Always a PARROT BAWK = I'm parroting the greater gurus

Antarctica is still a continent. But you think glaciers scraped the continent off to levels below sea level. Wow... You have no science education whatsoever, do you. I'd like you to picture what sort of topology would be required for a glacier to scrape rock off 2.5 km deep.

ISOSTASY: the equilibrium that exists between parts of the earth's crust, which behaves as if it consists of blocks floating on the underlying mantle, rising if material (such as an ice cap) is removed and sinking if material is deposited.

"Some 98% of Antarctica is covered by the Antarctic ice sheet, the world's largest ice sheet and also its largest reservoir of fresh water. Averaging at least 1.6 km thick, the ice is so massive that it has depressed the continental bedrock in some areas more than 2.5 km below sea level; subglacial lakes of liquid water also occur (e.g., Lake Vostok). Ice shelves and rises populate the ice sheet on the periphery. The present Antarctic ice sheet accounts for 90 percent of Earth's total ice volume and 70 percent of its fresh water. It houses enough water to raise global sea level by 200 ft."

What dug out the Great Lakes??

great lakes glaciers - Google Search

Simply put, the Great Lakes were created by glaciers. About 18,000 years ago, the Laurentide glacier covered most of Canada and the Northern U.S. As the glacier moved, it flattened mountains and carved valleys. It's estimated that the glacier was nearly 2.5 miles thick.


What does Greenland Sea Level look like now???

Wanna try that again???

LMFAO!!!!


TOO EASY!!!

 

[Crick]

The Great Lakes do not border on the ocean and note that the depressed areas of Greenland are where the ice is thickest. There are no mountain slopes to drive glaciers across that land just as there are none that could have produced the low regions of Antarctica by scraping.

Your side has been lying about Antarctica all along. You lost in the British Court in 2007. And you got exposed by NASA...

NASA Study: Mass Gains of Antarctic Ice Sheet Greater than Losses

A new NASA study says that an increase in Antarctic snow accumulation that began 10,000 years ago is currently adding enough ice to the continent to outweigh the increased losses from its thinning glaciers.

www.nasa.gov

90% of Earth ice has been growing every year for the duration of your fraud. And it will grow this year and next year and...

And THAT is why you have NO OCEAN RISE....

They don't know ice dries out and gets weakened.

are you saying the great lakes weren't created by glacier melt?

Figure it out you lying piece of shit.

Our problem is religion makes people believe in bullcrap and unrational thought processes. We will never convince the religious fundies that argue against the reality of the greenhouse effect and reality of a damn thing. The truth is our species is as fucked as any of the animals 230 million years ago in the great dying were. For all of our so called intelligence so many of us simply belief in compete trash and aint willing to ever consider the evidence.

Even if there were a mile wide asteroid heading towards our planet within the next couple of years these same people would argue that attempting to stop it from hitting our planet was a waste of fucking tax payers dollars and that government is criminal for daring to protect this planet. I swear to god that is how insane these people are.

Religion is a mental disorder.

We should take all the money we're currently wasting on "green energy" and spend it on asteroid defense.

Religion is a mental disorder.

But enough about the greentards.

I've yet to hear an explanation as to how ice scraped the ground kilometers below sea level when their are NO mountains nearby to provide the potential energy to drive the ice to do so. The depressed areas in Antarctica and Greenland are caused by isostasy, just as science has been telling us for decades. The reason you cannot find a single scientist to confirm your absurd contentions is that they are absurd and no one in their right mind would give them a minute's consideration. You have no fucking idea what you're talking about and all your bluff and bluster does nothing but make you look like an ass.

To the warmer morons, an ice age glacier is like a rock. Cut a piece off and it is permanently reduced in size.

In reality, ice age glaciers grow every year, and we know this because ice cores prove it.

Crick and his ilk want you to believe Greenland and Antarctica are melting. They have no liquid water on Antarctica unless a volcano goes off on the Peninsula. Both ice age glacier sheets thicken every year, EVERY YEAR. Greenland's ice south of the Arctic Circle melts during the summer, and then pushes south with thicker ice in the winter. That ice sheet is growing, and it will continue to grow until Greenland moves to a position of more than 600 miles from the North Pole.

Ice Age glaciers MOVE. They GROW. They DIG. And when they reach ocean depths of water they BREAK OFF in the form of ICEBERGS, which are STILL FROZEN aka NOT MELTED...

BTW, because one can see rings in ice cores, the rings are evidence of climate changes. So, pre human ice cores have rings from climate change with no human activity. How the fk is that possible?

And in the British Court the ACTUAL EVIDENCE of the rings shows Co2 as a LAGGING INDICATOR of change, which is true. When net ice melt happens, Co2 increases as it is released out of the ice that melted. It is not the CAUSE.

And that's where Greenland and North America BUST IT COLD!!!

Out of the question you ask, the key element, IMHO, is just this, why is there still ice on Greenland if the arctic is warming as they say?

 

[jc456]

Why is there still 90 percent? I thought you told us it was melting?

Who drinks the fresh water from there? And, if no one drinks it, why is it useful to mention?

So, you accept NASA data. Good to know.

Singular sublimation of ice and snow crystals - Nature Communications

Ice sublimation is a common, yet little-studied, heat and mass transfer problem with climatic and industrial implications. Here, the authors show that the sublimation of ice crystals is purely diffusive and is unaffected by the underlying crystalline lattice.

www.nature.com

Solids generally do not evaporate in ambient air. Common sense thus suggests that ice also does not rapidly evaporate (or sublimate) on Earth. Yet, ice and snow do in fact evaporate significantly in ambient air; a thin layer of snow can be seen to disappear in typically a few days, even if the temperature stays below freezing.
