Ice Melts in Greenland July 8-12: 97% IN FOUR DAYS. read it and weep.

thank you to whomever pinned this for me.

mods never pin me, so i appreciate it. glad to have the support of fellow GLP'ers.

You are absolutely right!

That is crazy,

I am going to blame it on HAARP.

YW.

Sure is good to see you around. Have been thinking of you and hoping you are well.

Hope anyone who says the polar bears could be wiped out, is wrong. How horribly sad that would be. Such a mess we've made.

The earth changes. Greenland wasn't always covered with ice. Polar bears evolved relatively recently because of the ice. If the ice goes away, bears won't need to be "polar" anymore. In a few hundred or thousand years, the ice may return and maybe polar bears will once again evolve from brown bears.

I laugh at the global warming people just like I laughed at the global cooling people in the 70s and the acid rain people in the 80s. What would they have said had they been alive during the ice age?

i am secretly a big believer in atlantis. and lemuria. pretty sure i was a lemurian. SHHHH! but wow yeah, the parallels with modern society are pretty clear. ;)

pffff, of course! sorry, i didn't read back before i posted.

you're the best.

yeeeeeeessssssssss.....

shhhhh, you'll bring out the shills....

but hell yes.

has anyone looked into an increase in ice somewhere else in the earth, a few years ago there were pics and articles about the ice melting in the artic and then they showed that the glaciers were growing elsewhere in antartica, just asking?

glaciers are growing in the himalayas and in south america.

the earth will balance itself out.

we're just ants.

everything is going to be okay.

the good side is maybe we can find some old viking settlements when it thaws.

^^^^OH DEAR!!!!!!! look at the articles. thank you for the question. :)

GREENland

hmmmm, coming from a veteran GLP'er, i expect you have been watching this and have good insight.

can you show us the himalayas and south america glacier growth? links? thank you!

(south america? really? things that make you go HMMMM!)

"Ice cores from Summit show that melting events of this type occur about once every 150 years on average. With the last one happening in 1889, this event is right on time," says Lora Koenig, a Goddard glaciologist and a member of the research team analyzing the satellite data. "But if we continue to observe melting events like this in upcoming years, it will be worrisome

as some of you may know, i broke the stories about drought and farmland...

well here's a bit more on that, related to this thread:

[link to www.giss.nasa.gov]

Early in the century, irrigation is primarily localized over Southern and Eastern Asia, leading to significant cooling in boreal summer (June-August) over these regions. This cooling spreads and intensifies by century's end, following the rapid expansion of irrigation over North America, Europe, and Asia. Irrigation also leads to boreal winter (December-February) warming over parts of North America and Asia in the latter part of the century, due to enhanced downward longwave fluxes from increased near surface humidity. Precipitation increases occur primarily downwind of the major irrigation areas, although precipitation in parts of India decreases due to a weaker summer monsoon.


WTF?

*sigh*

and then they said the other 47% was SHOCKINGLY RAPID AND UNPRECEDENTED.

Don't worry, Al Gore will send up some extra chemtrail planes to protect us.

hey jerk, thanks for the RED and this statement:

The sun is heating up the whole solar system. Not CO2 on earth....Manmade global warming, no.

did i SAY it was 'global warming?' i did not. did you read what i said? apparently not. now it looks like i'm a warmtard on my karma points! GEE THANKS!!!! LOL!!!!!

BEWARE!!! AGENDA-DRIVEN IDIOT!!!!

No he won't. Do you really think he has planes like that? Are you really that dumb?

YAH that is what i am talking about!!!!!!

the effects may not hit US right away, in the states, but wow are we in for a helluva 2013.

yes life after 2012, it will happen.

Absolutely!!! Those bastards that make up shit to support their "got to get a carbon tax or the planet will die" bullshit are the worst.

Al Gore sucks cocks and so do the 'scientists' that are his syncophants.

It isn't a "myth," it's a naturally occuring earth cycle. The earth used to be warmer, and now it's getting warmer again.

That same poster said that if the ice melts then that would result in the earth becoming unbalanced, which would speed up the pole shift process which makes sense, oh yeah, unfortunately we are in for one hell of a ride. Hang on!

the earth isn't always covered in ice, for most of the time there is no ice on the surface. all the ice melted before 3 times, the earth didn't become unbalanced.

even if all the ice melts (which it will) the water weighs the same as the ice did, so why would it cause balance problems? the weight of all the ice is tiny compared to the weight of the planet.

the magnetic pole shift happens all the time and is well documented, as magnetic compasses have been used for navigation for a long time. therefore it is necessary to know where the compass is pointing to navigate accurately. magnetic pole shift has no appreciable effect other than requiring some calculations for navigation.

physical pole shift would be catastrophic, however it has never happened, and probably never will happen due to the enormous forces that would be required to make it happen.

Greenland will be green again.

As a point of clarification... where are the actual satelite photos of melted ice? All i.see are red .and white 8th grade drawings. Ehem....

From what I've read, the entire solar system is heating up, but that said, the warming is affecting us in ways such as Anne posted

What I wonder is what happens next. The seasons and weather patterns are changing and even as we have these terrible droughts, there are record cold temperatures being recorded as well

Unbalance may lead to a tipping point which triggers colder temps in coming years, not heat as some think.

Of course this is all speculation, and if anyone does know the truth they are probably locked in a windowless room somewhere, lol

Personally, I suspect that after this blast furnace of a summer we will have unusually cold months ahead.

As you said, buckle up for a wild ride. Warmists and skeptics can probably agree extreme changes lie ahead.

I do know I don't want to own any low lyiing property right now. Whether storms or flooding, I think it's probably safer at higher elevations inlandddd

5 stars for you Anne.
