New Evidence of Antarctic Ice about to break off.

I like documentaries too. Sometimes you have to be careful with the information they provide but generally speaking most of the ones based on earth sciences are pretty spot on. I have a total of 246 documentaries on the sciences and some history (I actually made a list to keep track of them). Out of those, none of the earth sciences documentaries contradict themselves despite being produced by numerous tv stations.

 

Things of major proportion happen on this planet every so often, based on what we know about its history. Fortunately, the span of human life is tiny compared to the time span for some major events. Those monster volcanic eruptions, for example, which happen every 600,000 years or so, and turn the planet into a dustbowl. And the Ice Ages. You just have to hope you are not around when one of these things happens. That's aside from anything forced by man-made pollution.

 

Yes, it's mildly comforting to know that a dangerous acceleration has not yet started, at least in western Greenland, and that Greenland's ice is not yet destabilized.

 

The baby Antarctic penguins being frozen to death by freak rain storms

Tens of thousands of newly-born penguins are freezing to death as Antarctica is lashed by freak rain storms.

Scientists believe the numbers of Adelie penguins may have fallen by as much as 80 per cent – and, if the downpours continue, the species will be extinct within ten years.
...
Temperatures on the Antarctic peninsula have risen by 3C over the past 50 years to an average of -14.7C and rain is now far more common than snow.

 

Poor little things. (I *loved* March of the Penguins.)

The lucky ones are shot.

Polar bears are drifting to Iceland on ice flows. Two so far. The first was shot. They were going to try to trap the second but ended up having to shoot it too.

Imagine the polar bears that don't land on Iceland but continue to drift out to sea....to starve or drown.

Maybe we need another film; "Drift of the Polar Bears".

 

Global Warming is nothing but a FRAUD. It's a hoax.

There has been periods long long ago that it was much hotter than it is now.

The one thing that these brain washed scientists claim is that Carbon is bad and casues this so called Hoaxed Global Warming.

Carbon makes up 74% of our atmosphere. It's a natural thing and man has no big impact on it at all.

 

Jimie, we have been over this before. You are not qualified to make this argument. You knowledge in the sciences is woefully lacking yet you continue to come in here to thrown down your $.02 without any scienific evidence to back your opinions. Please do us a favor and supply us with evidence much like Tim Bikes does. I like you but this is kind of rediculous.

BTW, carbon makes up less than .04% of our atmosphere. I think you were refering to nitrogen which is 78% of our atmospheric gas total.

 

Since when does an individual need to be qualified to say that the whole global warming is a swindle?

Sorry F8L, I don't hate you or anybody on this board but I know when millions of Americans are being fed BS.

Everyone knows what the #1 control of our climate is, And that is the Sun.

 

And the Earth is flat. And is the centre of the universe. Not to mention God created it 6000 years ago.

 

Earth is round, And is NOT the center of the universe.

F8L, I meant to say it that way, LOL.

So any change in the percentages of carbon will not have any drastic effects.

 

Wait a minute. How do you know the earth is round and not the centre of everything? You didn't accept the scientific community's position I hope. Those cosmologists are just full of BS.

 

Sorry for my stupid responses. I've always looked at issues through a political side and not scientific.

 

Well, now we're getting somewhere. You realise, don't you, how little politics have to do with reality?

 

And what kind of ripple effect will this have.... predators of Adelaide penguins include primarily leopard seals, but also sharks, birds (eat the eggs) and sea lions. And predators of leopard seals is primarily the polar bear but also orcas and sharks. Another strike against the polar bear. I dare say that if the rains continue and the penguins are extinct within a decade, the polar bears will not make it to the projected 2050 scientists have said so far.

 

It appears they got to you as well. 'hook, line and sinker. Clearly, when the vast majority of scientists say something is real, that doesn't make it so. Oh wait, it does.... my bad.
