New Study: Greenland Was 3-7°C Warmer And Far Less Glaciated Than Today 6000-8000 Years Ago

[Foxfyre]

What a silly post. It is not the fact that our actions are changing the climate that is the problem, it is the rate of change. Yes, there have been many climate changes in the past. And most were slow enough that animals, and even plants, were able to adjust, by migration or evolution, to the changes. And there have been periods where the change was too fast for that. They were known as periods of extinction. Today, the rate of climate change is exceeding most of the rates of those extinctions. The only rates that exceed what we are seeing today were from impacts. Denigrating the scientist's warnings hardly shows any intelligence on your part. Because the scientist's warnings, not journalists, but actual research scientists, have been too conservative considering what we are seeing today. A good example is Dr. James Hansen's warning concerning the melting of the sea ice in the Northwest Passage. He predicted in his 1981 paper that we would see that Passage open occasionally by 2100. It first opened in 2007. In 2016, a 1000 passenger luxury cruise ship made the Passage. The scientists are correct in sounding the tocsin, even though fools will not listen. And these very same fools, when the inevitable consequences come to pass, will point their fingers at the scientists and say "Why didn't you warn us!".

I think it pretty 'silly' to post as non sequitur post as yours in response to mine. Do have a lovely afternoon/evening though.

Because it did not. Greenland had far more ice during the depths of the ice maximum. It has thawed the same as North America. However the altitude of most of Greenland means much more of it's mountains are glaciated.

Utter complete McBullshit...

Thread 'How old were the 2.5 mile thick glaciers covering Chicago in the past 20k-5 million years?'

May 15, 2023

This is where the climate debate is now stuck.

Every piece of land within 600 miles of a pole is in ice age, everything outside of that is not. Nobody has attempted to dispute that. It is the clear truth of Earth today.

Milankovitch Cycles, which I call McBullshit Cycles, take a very "Dennis Quaid" approach to ice ages - they are lightning fast, quick, and agile. They come and go really fast.

Since 2010, Milankovitch has replaced "North American Ice Age" with the claim that the ice on Chicago recently that was 2.5 miles thick was only 75k years old.

Really....

Damn, just where do you get this kind of misinformation from? Do you wipe afterwards? LOL

17 kilometers (10.6 miles) per year
The largest glacier in Greenland is the Jakobshavn Isbræ, which is also the fastest-moving glacier in the world. It has been recorded to move at a speed of 17 kilometers (10.6 miles) per year, or approximately 46 meters (151 feet) per day during the summer months. This glacier plays a significant role in the dynamics of the Greenland Ice Sheet and contributes to global sea level rise due to its rapid melting.

Minor problem... you cannot show us one single photo documenting any ocean rise, and this is because


THERE IS NO OCEAN RISE

 

[EMH]

The ice cores show very clearly the interglacial periods

This is really IQ over 5 stuff.

Definition of interglacial = all ice on Earth melts

PROBLEM = if the ice cores have a "record" of that it is

BECAUSE IT GREW ANOTHER LAYER OF ICE


and that is not "melting," it is GROWING.... DUH

 

[EMH]

And sexual intercourse does not cause babies. LOL Without water, no ice. Water, cold air, and snow make ice and glacial ice.

LOL!!!

What a moron.

Water is not cold enough to cause ice, because if it was cold enough

IT WOULD BE ICE

DUH....

DUH....

According to that logic, water would never freeze.

According to that logic, water would never freeze.

Arctic Sea ice also includes a lot of ice that comes from both Greenland and Ellesmere.

My ice maker just turned water into ice. It was a miracle.

Not from the cold of the water, moron.

You are the one saying that, dummy.

You are the one saying that, dummy.

Sea ice forms at 29F air temp at the very top of the water because the air temp is the additional source of cold needed to get across liquid to solid threshold....

And Arctic air temperatures are affected by heat releases from the ocean. Take that current away and the heat being released to the atmosphere goes away and air temperatures cool.

water causes ice, except it is too warm to do that, duh...

anyone else here buy the "water causes ice" theory???

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Greenland had far less snow and Ice a few thousand years ago as the region was much warmer than it is now with the miracle CO2 levels at around the 260 ppm level.

I am sure warmest/alarmest will panic over this.

New Study: Greenland Was 3-7°C Warmer And Far Less Glaciated Than Today 6000-8000 Years Ago

By Kenneth Richard on 12. January 2026

Excerpt:

A large portion of the Greenland ice sheet that is today over 500 m thick did not exist during the Early to Mid Holocene.​

So youre still confused about what the word "global" means.

Good luck.

I couldn't have explained it more clearly.

Greenland had far less snow and Ice a few thousand years ago as the region was much warmer than it is now with the miracle CO2 levels at around the 260 ppm level.

That is because CO2 is some amazing stuff! There could be no liquid water nor life without it! CO2 keeps Earth habitable, allowing plants to grow, which then give us oxygen to breathe.

But as much of Greenland's glaciation is based on Atlantic Ocean currents, themselves based in large part on temperature, salinity and continental position, this all makes sense.

To a great degree, the glaciation of Greenland today is largely due to Atlantic storms and the moisture they pump straight up right into the SE shore of the island colliding with the arctic air mass.

You don't expect changes in the earth after 8000 years?
