More Arctic Ice Data Bias and Slant
Roanoke Times, 9-20-10, Pg 15: Opinion: A melting Arctic hits home
-
A summary of the varied wildlife that lives in the Arctic region and the author’s assessment of the impact a reduction in Artic ice cover may have on their survival.
Includes a large graphic showing yet another forlorn polar bear and a dire warning to Americans to change their ways.

Our 250 years of natural global warming has indeed had impacts on the environment as have the many thermal cycles the earth has experienced over the millennium.
During a major past cooling period, the brown bears that moved north found marine mammals to be a good source of food. Over time the lighter haired bears survived best resulting in the polar bears we have today.
What a change, and without any input from mankind!

Sixteen thousand years ago the Atlantic Ocean was 400 feet lower than it is today. The North Carolina Outer Banks were 50 miles east out at the continental shelf. Talk about your melting ice raising the sea level! And all without any input from mankind!
-
From 1750 to 1950 the Mendenhall Glacier retreated (melted) from close to downtown Juneau Alaska up the valley two and a half miles (2-1/2 mi) with no significant change in CO2 or any input from mankind!

The Artic has been relatively free of summer ice in the past and it appears that will happen again. Just 3,000 years ago Greenland was 3 degrees C warmer than it is now. Clearly the satellite images from that period would have show the Northwest Passage far different than it is today!

Isn’t it way past due to stop the Gore-Hysteria and fear mongering and report the climate history in its historical perspective?
The climate is changing! The climate has always been changing, and without any input from mankind!

Last week Russian fighter planes “buzzed” an American military ship in the Northwest Passage. Russia, Norway, America and Canada are claiming the Artic region as part of their territory. The real interesting Artic story is the coming war for oil and gas that lies below the diminishing Artic ice.

The Glaciers of Greenland were smaller 5000 years ago;
African savanna trees thrive with increases in CO2;
It was hotter in China a thousand years ago, and by a whole degree;
Marine-life-with-shells can’t agree on their favourite CO2 level and
Temperatures make no difference to the 5000 year record of hurricanes.
