Do you guys remember when Newsweek was a publication? Apparently it's still a blog or something. http://www.newsweek.com/antarctica-gaining-ice-heres-why-thats-not-actually-good-news-389904

When Newsweek was actually a magazine they told us that I nor none of you should be reading this forum, we either would have frozen to death or never been born.

How do you measure 0.27 millimeters of ocean rise? That's 1/100 of an inch.

More ice is accumulatin at the south pole. Must be heavy ice.

Huh. Turns out China is pumping a lot more CO2 into the atmosphere than previously reported. Global temps don't seem to have noticed.

Maybe just tell it to stop moving for a minute while we measure.

Is there a calculator out there (or Mocat, can you help me with this) to tell me how much 100 new aircraft carriers or ocean barges would raise the sea level? Back in the day, a Canadian friend of middle school dobber attempted to explain to the teacher that all of the new larger ships on the ocean were the cause of the ocean rising.

I would like somebody to calculate to the nearest quadrillionth of inch that 100 aircraft carriers would cause the oceans to rise.

Some dumb ass alarmist said a few days ago that global warming will cause a reduction in sex? It will be too hot and people won't be in the mood. Huh? If you are going at on a sidewalk maybe. Why not turn on the ac. Stupid a holes like this negate any arguments the heaters have. Chicken little gone amuck.

Should the "internal communications" of government scientists be confidential? I'm not sure why.

Millions of pounds of CO2 will be pumped into the air, millions of dollars in haute cuisine eaten (and pooped), thousands of gallons of alcohol consumed (and pee'd out), and hundreds of tourist attractions will be visited as the worlds Climate Propagandists will soon descend on Paris and for about the 17th time in the last fifteen years as they participate in the next "last chance" to save the world.

Hopefully they don't trample all over indigenous peoples sacred grounds or sign petitions to outlaw water by the thousands as has happened at previous "last chance" to save the world conferences.

sonofdaxjones · « **Reply #1641 on:** November 10, 2015, 07:33:31 PM »

Not to forget the millions of gallons of fresh water consumed that will wash away fine soaps and shampoo's in Paris' finest hotels.

most children don't and that has nothing to do with the audacious consumerism that will bring the next save the planet conclave together.

not having children certainly decreases future populations though, but i guess you didn't understand that.

Quit responding if you're just going to gE the whole time. Each human impacts the environment, they breath, they consume and in the U.S. likely burn fossil fuels, and use systems that run on or were constructed on fossil fuels. The population reduction that so many want, well . . depopulation begins with one. But I guess you don't understand that.
