There is no lack of data GW. The antartic has been cooling for decades and sea-ice area has been increasing so where is this melt water supposed to be coming from all of a sudden? And what dramatic sea level increases. read this 2006 paper

Wind and currents may push the ice northward into the Ross Sea, stirring up cold bottom currents that spill into the ocean basins of the world. link

The upwelling of cold deep water at McMurdo is because of the nature of the coast quite normal.

Depends if you dismiss it as propaganda :lol:

Bandwagon is the right word. Someone in that government dept. needs a reality check and the boot perhaps. But hey, lets just get rid of all refrigeration and eat rotten meat and fish just in case AGW is true. Lets not wait - ruin the economy and folks health now before warming does it.

In my humble opinion by way of many hours delving into both sides of the argument I have come to the conclusion that there is reasonable doubt to the popular theory that we are forcing climate change. The reason I particularly find the "experts" untrustworthy is the use of the words (will, is, no-doubt) etc when none of their predictions can be shown without doubt to be true or accurate. I will try to keep an open mind and not become a fanatic of either camp.

Hello all and thanks for the welcome. Please read my post again, I was quoting and adding a little of his/her own medicine.

So if it is a "sad fact" that land masses "will disappear" but one then covers ones behind by stating that you are not saying that it will happen what are you saying exactly? This is precisely the type of speculative "proof" that kicked off the present climate change panic. "Many's the bigot with a strongly held opinion; what they tend to lack is sound reason." Indeed you speak true oh wise one. Perhaps do some research into the other side of the argument yourself and see that they also have research and evidence to hand and equally sound reasons for their stance.
