Same with Greenland.

I suppose you think that the fact that Antarctica's temperature increase is now more than 5 degrees faster than the global average has nothing to do with the melting? Hidden Volcanoes Melt Antarctic Glaciers from Below

Also Arctic temperature increase is more than twice the global average....

Volcanic activity of course contributes to the melting, but AGW is the main cause.

Excuse me? You are saying that the entire continent of Antarctica is seeing temperatures increasing 5 degrees faster than the global average? Prove that

You must mean just on the Peninsula are the temperatures accelerating five times faster

Over the past 50 years, winter temperatures on the Peninsula have risen five times faster than the global average

UAH satellite data shows no trend since data collection began

Actual data set

And the RSS satellite data shows a slight decrease in temps since data collection began

Thermometer readings are controversial since they are sparse and mainly located along the coasts

Not one study shows a warming 5 times the global average. Some studies show slight cooling, while others show slight warming.

So, what is it you want to do to stop the underseas volcanoes?

LOL. Let me guess. Tax increases, a massive redistribution of wealth program (but not to poor people) and a lot more regulations and government control of our lives, with leftists presiding. Never mind that these volcanoes certainly have nothing to do with human emissions of CO2.

Oh yeah, that should do it. {sarcasm}

It's really difficult to have a reasonable conversation with people that continually spew nonsense, so I'm going to be more selective about who I respond to.

Who are these 'global warming cult members' you are referring to?

What are their 'beliefs'?

What science is "getting in the way of their beliefs"?

What?? Treason you heretic. Stone him!!

What 'trick question'? I was asking the poster to give more specific information to clarify what he meant by his post.

That guy fooled himself if he imagined politicians would see it has anything but in political terms.
