Sea Ice
Readers letter...
Recent media reports of the deaths of almost all of this years Adeline penguin chicks in East Antarctica should interest those who express. Concern about Global Warming.
The problem was too much sea ice. The parents had to undertake too long a trek to feed the chicks. Satellite pictures confirm the extent of the ice.
Meanwhile, ice in the Arctic has also recently increased while anthropogenic emissions and climate change appears to be broken.
But that recorded between the sun and global temperature changes appears stronger and in line with what so called deniers are saying.
As one of those so called deniers pleased to see there are glimmers of truth appearing to botch the idiots holding the world to ransome. The sun 10. The climate change idiots zero. JWS

Re: Sea Ice
John, a couple of years ago NZ did some research into the ice there.
The conclusion, deeper, wider and more of it than ever recorded before.
But hey, never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
Happy daze John in Oz.
Life is too short to blend in.

Re: Sea Ice
The Green Playbook... How is it possible that we have let Green minority groups tell us what is good for us.? The answer is quite really simple.
They are the most vocal and they revert to name-calling if you do not agree with them.
The words racist, climate change denier, and any other slogan which suits their agenda are deployed.
They show disdain for The taxpayer because they do not care how their policies will be paid for because they will never govern.
If they yell loud enough, talk about it often enough, they think people will eventually believe it to. Be true. JWS

Re: Sea Ice
I was in the Antarctic in 2009 and was talking to a member of the British Antarctic Survey Team out there.
he said the Ice was increasing, at the time it was 70c below Zero.
I could not argue with him as it was too cold.

Re: Sea Ice
I can remember as a kid having really hot summers in the uk Brian, of course there is climate change there has been so since the earth was formed and will continue to when the earth ceases to exist. Everyone knows that. It’s just that the reason has been manipulated to make every person on the earth to believe they can change by stopping Smoking illicit cigarettes behind the bicycle sheds. The biggest con ever. Some even go as far as to blame cows passing wind. The Dinosaurs must have been culprits way above the cows in their hey Day. JWS.

Re: Sea Ice
All the weather systems on the earth Vernon have one basic constant source of input, the same as all existing life on earth, and that is the largest star in our universe, and that is the Sun. If you really want to end the world drop a few thousand megaton nuclear warheads and knock the world out of tilt by a few degrees and see how that would effect climate change. Even the constant warring factions in the Middle East is causing more carbon, which is said to be the cause of climate change, than what can be normally produced by man. A single volcano eruption similar. It doesn’t take a so called expert in the study of such to bulls...t the public. There are other scientists apart from those bigoted ones who will never admit in being wrong. Names mean nothing when it comes to common sense. In previous post I meant to spell the vernal equinox as the Vernon equinox to see if anyone noticed. Cheers think there is still 2 hours difference between eastern and western seaboards but thats just a guess. JWS

Re: Sea Ice
In the early eighties when the global warming theory gained momentum, some scientists ignored the input from the sun when they created their computer modelling programs.
Solar flares and hot spots were at their peak when the so called global warming took place.
Look back to the UK in the fifties and before, smoke belching from coal fires,thick fog in winter,now the air is a lot clearer.
Look back at history how the weather changed, it wasn't global warming it as a natural cycle.

Re: Sea Ice
Vic you may remember the sparks being in the radio room way past his watch trying to get messages away and having a lot of trouble. Was usually due to sun spots affecting the radio waves. The sun spots were more volcanic eruptions on the sun than normal. The sun was mans first God as gave life to all. When it’s gone we’re all gone. Cheers JWS.

Hi John.
Was it the gas the Dinosaurs passed that made them pass---away.
