It wasn't manufactured. Right-wingers say it is because the facts contradict what Rush and Sean and good old James Inhofe say, and right-wingers believe what their right-wing masters tell them. To a denialist, science means automatically believing anything that parrots Republican lies and declaring all else to be fraud. It also means whining about Al Gore a lot.

Default No Climate change? Watch a Piece of Greenland the Size of Manhattan Slide into the Sea

They Took A Camera To A Remote Area In Greenland, And What They Recorded Is Simply Terrifying

This video is terrifying and spectacular at the same time. Hard to deny that something is going on in the Arctic regions after watching this video.

That wasn't terrifying. That was awesome. Something that has happened for billions of years, was captured for all to see.

We should all realize, that same ice sheet, once covered 1/2 of North America.

Again, how much money needs to be spent before we see a return on our investment?

How do we know when to stop before global cooling sets in? That is if we are so effective in combating global warming.

How do you differentiate between dynamic changes naturally occurring and the suggested change due to human activity?

Which change is more dynamic and how do we mitigate any natural changes that oppose human caused changes?

"Who'll stop the rain...." Algore and Obama will control nature with the aid of US taxpayer money.

It is very cool to watch something that large moving at those speeds. It is beyond impressive.

One thing is absolutely certain - the climate is going to change. Be thankful the majority of the glaciers are retreating, because when the majority of glaciers start advancing, then we will be in really big trouble.

In short: Warming good. Cooling bad. Remaining static is not an option.

The movement of the magnetic poles... Or has the poles remained the same and the mantle has moved?


Either way, it is the magnetic poles that determine the earths axis to the sun.
As the north pole move farther away from Greenland, I'm sure it will be warmer than just 100 years ago in Greenland.
