Antarctica – NOT

Greenhouse Bullcrap

 Here is a paper on Antarctic sea ice extent from people who were not paid millions of dollars to go down there and find “Global Warming” on the Antarctic Penninslar!

Abstract

~scienceSmall[1] The recent observed positive trends in total Antarctic sea ice extent are at odds with the expectation of melting sea ice in a warming world. More problematic yet, climate models indicate that sea ice should decrease around Antarctica in response to both increasing greenhouse gases and stratospheric ozone depletion. The resolution of this puzzle, we suggest, may lie in the large natural variability of the coupled atmosphere–ocean-sea-ice system. Contrasting forced and control integrations from four state-of-the-art models, we show…

EPA Announces Formation of Technical Working Group to Review Ocean Acidification

Standard

well its about time do or die

conservefewell

As first reported by Amena Saiyid over at BNA, EPA announced this week that it plans to establish a technical working group to begin reviewing the causes of ocean acidification, as announced in a letter from EPA’s Nancy Stoner, Acting Assistant Administrator for the Office of Water, to the Center for Biological Diversity in response to a request for EPA to establish new water quality criteria.  Now, some may take a dim view of this development, given the political rancor over climate change, but I think the decision is timely and well founded.

Diving Too Deep

the ice bergs are melting faster than what the scientist predicted the oceans are rising considerably well that water had to go somewhere now doesen’t it? the east coast will be under water if the oceans keep rising make you stop an think now doesen’t it????////
