Antarctic Sea Ice On Turbo-Steroids…Mutates To A Behemoth…Sets Quantum All-Time Record High Extent!

CO2Insanity: Tired of the CO2 BS and all the other BS in the US and the world.

  • At any rate, the REAL scientific method is to continually examine your hypothesis in light of new evidence and determine if your hypothesis is correct. If it's not, guess what? You toss it out and start over. Anyone who claims "The science is settled" knows NOTHING about science. Pffft!

  • Reasons Arctic sea ice is increasing:

    i )Ozone levels over Antarctica have dropped causing stratospheric cooling and increasing winds which lead to more areas of open water that can be frozen.

    ii) The Southern Ocean is freshening because of increased rain and snowfall as well as an increase in meltwater coming from the edges of Antarctica's land ice. Together, these change the composition of the different layers in the ocean there causing less mixing between warm and cold layers and thus less melted sea and coastal land ice.

    Climate Change and Global Warming are real.

    • You're so full of it. Sorry but you are.

      FTA:
      Climate change is causing the southern ocean to warm and freshen which will melt ice shelves and glacier tongues affecting glacier discharge and producing Antarctic Ice Sheet mass loss and global sea level rise. A new study shows that small temperature changes of the Southern Ocean can contribute to far-reaching changes on the Antarctic ice sheet that could lead to substantial future sea-levels.

      Total BS since your own claim is at odds with the article's claim.

        • http://www.climatedepot.com/2013/12/22/35-year-cooling-of-south-pole-confirmed-by-nasa-antarctica-ice-sheets-safe/

          Your link is outdated and meaningless. Since the whole scam is predicated on man's emission of CO2 and we now know that CO2 has little to no impact on temperature or climate, the only thing that matters is to point out that the models were wrong. Climate change occurs naturally and in cycles. Redistributing wealth from the US to the rest of the world is a pretty stupid solution to the made up problem, don't you think? China is a far greater polluter but they are exempt from this stupidity.

          • Ah, that argument.

            First things first: NASA didn't confirm that. That article took data that was taken by NASA to craft that "cooling" argument.

            Those data points were cherry picked. Some portion of the continent was cooling while the remaining was warming. Examining all the data, the trend appears to be positive.

          • That's complete bullshit! The entire Globull Warming/Climate Change/Climate Chaos line is that it's caused by man through CO2 emissions. They hinge their entire precept on it, because it's the way they plan on stealing money from all of us.
            Every time something happens that proves them wrong, they change the terms and the name, in order to further the lie.

          • Yeah,, the same old argument (CO2) that warmists have been shoving down the world's throat for 25 years or more.

            My link contradicts yours with regard to Antarctic temperatures. Neither figures are significant. Not enough to create the amount of ice we are seeing. Zhang is wrong because the Antarctic land mass isn't warming and we have record ice. We know the warmists are in desperate circumstances because virtually every prediction failed to occur. Now they will fit the new data to old hypotheses and pronounce themselves correct. That's not the scientific method I was taught.

            Oh, and no one can link any of these events (good or bad from a life sustainment POV) to human activity.

          • Your absurd "reasons Antarctic sea ice is increasing" missed one major point:

            You need to show me ONE prediction from one of your pet scientists that was written 10+ years ago that says "Antarctic sea ice will increase, and this is an effect of global warming."

            But, no, it's always...

            1.) Make a prediction.
            2.) The opposite of that prediction comes to pass.
            3.) Claim you're right anyway.

            The world doesn't work that way. Science doesn't work that way.

            If the opposite of your prediction happens, then...

            1.) You are wrong.
            2.) No money for you.
            3.) Go away.

          • Why 10+ years? I have linked one paper that discusses this phenomena and if you aren't able to find anything wrong with the data then that means that study is accurate and reliable.

            "1.) Make a prediction.
            2.) The opposite of that prediction comes to pass.
            3.) Claim you’re right anyway."

            ....how exactly have scientists done that in regards to climate change? I would love to see some supporting evidence behind this claim.

          • Al Gore said the Arctic would be ice-free by this year. It's not.

            OK, Gore's not a scientist, he's a... Well, I'm not sure what.

            But where was ONE SINGLE scientist to stand up and say, "No, Al! Don't say that! The ice will actually INCREASE!"

            Not one. They all predicted the "death spiral" of Arctic ice, and the dwindling of Antarctic sea ice.

          • Look back. The warmers have been having orgasm's the sea-ice has been lower at the poles and it was due to global warming. Now that it's increasing that's due to global warming. It's so obvious a caveman could get it.

    • That's OK though, because the ice will now begin melting, because of the seasonal change, which means Globull Warming is now real again!
      :roll:

    • That was the Arctic but your point is well taken as the ice extant there has substantially increased lately. The planet is entering a cooling phase by any observation.

  • Again, I feel the need to point out: If we had signed on to the Kyoto Protocols, the AGW crowd wouldn't be ignoring all the cold, nor would they be piling up excuses for it ("The global warming is now hiding in the oceans!").

    No, they would be TAKING CREDIT for the cold! "We stopped global warming! Now obey every word we say FOREVER!"

    I don't think people realize how we dodged a bullet on that one!

  • Okay I am all about making fun of the idiots...

    but this is kind of big news though... I have to wonder what is the Earth preparing for that it needs all this ice...?

    Interesting.

  • Oh you know, the ice is the wrong color or flavor or something. Although I admit it is alarming that this is such a huge increase, per the article.

  • I am sure the "Climate Clinger" in the White House will be dispatching several thousand military members with flame throwers to "correct" this situation....Or we could have the EPA build a couple coal fired power plants on the ice and if we were to believe what those idiots say, the ice would be gone in a couple days...

  • ... but expect the narrative to continue because come hell or high water (or in this case high ice) they will ram through their new taxes, economy killing regulations, and ignorance exploiting new industries under the climate change umbrella while suppressing this data which should rightly be cause for celebration. By their actions they tip off to anyone able to think critically that they know it to be a hoax... and knowingly hoaxing people in order to fleece them is a crime. The global warming cult is far more than that- it's perpetrators are grand larcenists on a global scale. They are criminals.
