Joseph Goebbels would be proud of the global warmers. Repeat a lie often enough and people will believe it.
Only people don't seem to be believing it, outside of Obama and those who stand to make money pretending its real.

Let's see, polar bears dying, northwest passage, seas rising 8' and record setting numbers of hurricanes didn't come to pass as they guaranteed they would so the fraudsters pull another out of their lying arsenal in an all out effort to perpetuate the fraud.

So reminds me of the global cooling scam of the late 70's.

Quick, shovel another million towards Al Gore because only he can save us!

Horse Sh-t! I guess you don't watch "Gold Rush."

More propaganda from PBS, State controlled media. This is also called by another name, "agitprop".

That's because there is no evidence that the earth is warming! This story is pure B.S.!

Absolutely ridiculous for November, and this is because of that "warming" arctic air that the jet stream has forced down our way.

With temperatures like this, how does the permafrost melt?

We have been watching and enjoying "Gold Rush" for several seasons, so we know what the permafrost is, and how difficult it is to break through to do any mining. They have not given any indication of it getting any easier to break through.

This story is a complete joke, and manufactured to send the message that they want to send, for the purpose of a particular political agenda.

Pure propaganda!

I didn't read any admission. It was a supposition.

This supposed sea level increase is pure nonsense too. Where? by how much?

You alarmists amaze me. "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!"

What proof do you have of this? There is none.

A point was being made. I guess you didn't get it. No surprise.

Yep, I'd like to have some of it too. Last summer wasn't exactly warm either. It was much cooler than normal, which affected my garden. Tomatoes didn't do too well, peppers sucked (hardly any), and even very few egg plants.

Please send some "global warming" for next summer, and I could sure use a bit right now, too!

The number of polar bears inhabiting a frozen sea north of Alaska declined by about 40% from 2001 to 2010.....US Geological Survey researchers and scientists from Canada and the United States found that bear survival rates in the south Beaufort Sea were particularly low from 2004 to 2006, when only two of 80 cubs monitored were known to have survived.

The number of Category 4 and 5 hurricanes worldwide nearly doubled from the early 1970s to the early 2000s.

I have no idea where your 8 foot sea level rise prediction came from, bu I suspect you just made it up, like everything else you posted.

It is a myth......As in all things science and reason, context is required to understand relevance of any data or scope of understanding. In the case of the global cooling myth, let's take a look at the context. From 1965 to 1979, seven scientific papers were published predicting global cooling, and forty two were published predicting global warming due to increasing CO2

Aww, you are just jealous....Do what Gore and I do, invest in green energy, and you too can be a millionaire.

Your theory about "why" the Earth appears to be warming is at best overstated and highly assumptive.

It also ignores the fact that the warming effect caused by additional CO2 decreases exponetially as CO2 levels increase.

Moreover, even dyed in the wool warmers admit they don't fully understand how things like aerosols, farming and deforrestation, water vapor, carbon black, cloud cover and shifting ocean currents and weather patterns act to cool or warm the Earth.
I was speaking to those that state that since the world was warm in the past this is just another cycle, my question was what caused it to be warm in the past. What gives anyone confidence that this is a natural phenomena based on our past history.

No we don't understand everything about the atmosphere but the science has a evolved to a point that the models offer a very good understanding for future predictions.

CO2 is consistently increasing and the earth is warming.
