NWF Global Warming in Greenland DAY 4

[judomagyar]

Dr Miskolczi showed that the solution to a differential equation for the greenhouse effect developed in 1922 by Arthur Milne, wrongly assumed an infinitely thick atmosphere. In re-solving this equation a new term and also a new law of physics have been proposed setting an upper limit to the greenhouse effect. Dr Miskolczis theory indicates that any warming from elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide will eventually be offset by a change in atmospheric moisture content.

[CubistCafe]

So why not let the people there speak for themselves? White tourists with money to travel to exotic places just because they finde it interesting is part of the problem.

The other part is the population increasing at three people per second on this planet.

[SauceMystery]

Warmer in the past than now :

"Aside from views of cattails and blackbirds, the marshes in the lower Hudson Valley near New York City offer an amazingly detailed history of the area's climate. Sediment layers from a tidal marsh in the Hudson River Estuary have preserved pollen from plants, seeds, and other materials. These past remnants allowed researchers from Columbia University, New York, N.Y. and NASA to see evidence of a 500 year drought from 800 AD to 1300 AD,"

[MagentaTrue]

"They(tv reporters) ask me 'Did you see ice falling from the edge of glaciers?' 'Yes. That's the "spring break-up". That happens every year.' The press comes to us all the time, you know, 'I want to see something of the greenhouse disaster.' I say 'There is none(chuckles).' "

[markslord3]

Wow, for being scientists, these people really arent doing any scientific work. Theyre just spouting off facts theyve read, but otherwise, theyre just acting like tourists, Im sorry to say.

[densefawg]

i know we can reflect the suns energy by covering the land with mirrors are problems are over. ill start producing and the taxpayers can pay for it, then ill sell it to the world. ill be rich ill be just like al gore. search(HOTTER SUN)

[cheyennepride4life]

I am a native american and what i see is this, the goverment is not gonna do anything because if you don't know you need to know! The pollution that we have created over the years is like the crater in arizona from a metior! Ppl need to realize that if the fresh water keeps getting dumped into the ocean to like what it is, then one of the following things will happen: World wide droughtENCLUDING THE RAIN FOREST OR ANOTHER ICE AGE!

[Lje123]

How long could u pump pollution inside of a hamsters aquarium, before the lil fella dies of some kinda cancer? This is what we are doing to OUR aquarium! Lets just skip lining the goverments pockets, and go suck on some tailpipes, and speed this process up! Death for everyone! yay.

[coronet67]

But pollution doesnt cause global warming.

[MetallicOpeth]

haha....hahaha, wow you must be REALLY new to this

[coronet67]

So tell me, what type of pollution causes global warming? Soot? Litter? Toxic waste?

[Wolffighters]

i dont understand what the big debate is about. If global warming is true we need to get cleaner more realistic energies. If it isnt true then we still have to deal with PEAK OIL. so either way were f-ed, might as well change our energy system no matter what the excuse is.

[leighcurt]

It looked like some old people just filmed their vacation to me. Placing more carbon in the air by getting to Greenland by plane, and then directly into the glacier water with their repetitive trips back in forth to the glacier. Stating comments that are common knowledge to most people now. I will never donate to NWF (Nincompoop White Folks)

[Jangle2007]

Leigh - All travel-related carbon impacts were offset through the carbon fund. It's not perfect, but its a start to address and quantify the climate related impacts of our energy habits.

[leighcurt]

It looked like some old people just filmed their vacation to me.

[fbtrav]

rotfl, people get paid for this?

[enheri]

WOW!!!!!, I know the scientist/guide her name is Sussie, and she lived in my house in Bolivia for a while, Sussie, if you´re reading this I think you´re AWESOME This is Daniel Villarroel by the way.

[triathlete007]

Hmmmm, tropical plants formerly growing in Siberia. Said plants found in the mouths of Mastodons frozen in the tundra. There is more going on here than meets the eye.

[MrWonderful1961]

At 0:45 - "just beginning to scratch the surface of understanding..." - Huh.

0:50 - "IF it keeps warming like it SEEMS to be, I THINK Greenland is going to START losing a lot more ice." That seems pretty definitive to me...

[dfbewsdfbdfb77]

At a guess, looks like their born into money and the NWF are lining them up for a cash donation,

[warmthis]

I have tried to keep an open mind on this issue but after viewing the first four videos it is clear that this is all political hooey. Note the lady that wants us to elect the proper officials. Then they hand out cake! I thought this was supposed to prove your point about global warming and all i see is a bunch of ice and all I hear is a bunch of one sided Al Gore bs. Please folks. Give scientific data. Dont politicize this. I dont want to trade in my suv for a camel until I'm convinced.

[CanadianBeaver]

Hate of Animals turns to Hate of Man.. when you Devalue anything you stand to lose Everything! Religion of Anything Kills and Destroys. Seek Truth and Information about Everthing. Dont Blindly Follow anyone.

Together We can Fix it all But apart we tend to form Clicks of Hate and Death.Peace and Love through Togetherness.Together we Can Fix it All.

[dfbewsdfbdfb77]

That's not the way the nursery rhyme goes,

[mxkingy]

Shame on NWF.

[dfbewsdfbdfb77]

Due to the plastic flow property of ice it's normal for ice to flow and collapse into the sea, in fact the larger and higher the ice mass the more this takes place.

[runnerrk]

global warming, deforestation, overpopulation...all myths...most followers are dupes and lemmings...a few are junk scientists, arrogant assholes like the clown in this video who thinks he's 'fighting the good fight'...lol...

what flakes liberals are...

[Uglemugle]

Sooruna inuit allamik oqarneq ajortut!?

[MajorScam]

Yawn yawn, who paid for the Holiday anyway?? They kept saying things like "all the people & scientists we spoke too" when...where? they just spoke a load of cr@p every time the cam was on them, just listen to what that stupid woman says at 2:29 again...go on play it again!. How did they get there anyway...Fly? What would be good is if and the 5th day they get crushed and die under a melting pile of horse sh@t or shot. Pretentious TW@TS

[squee8174]

Ok, I understand the reasoning behind their trip, but they don't show anything other than conferences and site-seeing. I would like to see on site research from a group like the NWF, and talking to locals doesn't quite count.

[dfbewsdfbdfb77]

If they had gone there looking for bananas they would have found a plantation,

[crzypilot427]

Yea I would say this looks like a vacation for these guys and they use the national wildlife as an excuse to come see this place there is hardly any documenary on what is really going they gave us information that was common sense to a 6 year old.

[girliecars]

whether u belive there is a changing climate or not (or whether u belive we are at fault or not) is it such a bad thing to get people to be more environmentally friendly... wouldnt u rather see our governments try to clean up the atmosphere???

[peachycloudme]

But rather, there were only minimal information on how they had to keep the dog cool, and they cannot ride sled anymore. Of course, those are affects; however, it would be more persuasive to the general public if people could see more. For example the fish couldn't survive in the warmer ocean, or a large number of the wildlife died due to the melting ice.

[peachycloudme]

I agreed to what meierland said. The person kept saying that they talked to top scientists to learn about how global warming is affecting the lives there. I was waiting for facts, the validated information, or even just couple words from a creditable scientist there.

[meierland]

in this entire sequence i see nothing to document or validate any melting ice, etc.....I do think there is global warming, but this is nothing more than a tax writeoff for a trip by rich retired yahoo's

[mediadisbeliever]

Yes, If there's anything I do believe about what the media says, it is the seriousness of climate change. I would have liked go on a trip to Greenland myself to experience the beauty of the place before it's too late. Thanks to National Wildlife for the videos.

[halconsalvaje]

this video looks more than a holiday or something, happy birthday?? the guy taking pictures to the flowers!! too bad

[lessthan60]

I agree with mxkingy. There is no cause for alarm. Don't go frightening our youth. One fact that hasn't been noted is that over the past 100 years the global temperature has only increased by one half a degree. I suppose you also think man is to blame for this nearly unmeasureable climate change.

[mxkingy]

You people are ignorant. Do you think that the earth looks today like it did hundreds or even thousands of years ago? Has the climate remained constant over these years??? One thing is certain...CHANGE IS INEVITABLE AND EVEN NECESSARY! The only thing I agree with you on is that our earth is beautiful.

[gategate55]

your right, there weren't so many people and cars hundreds of years ago to make all this pollution

but, i think your missing the point sir

wow ice where did that come from. The guy tinks that it may do this and it may do that. Land my have been covered in ice a million years ago. Sounds like a greeny. Top scientist who's budget comes from the WWF say there is global warming.

[neoalexy2k]

I love global warming.  It's added at least 3 weeks to my golfing season!!

[ffkling]

Will we have the wisdom to take action in time or will we destroy the planet- the clock is ticking.

[coolpanzer4u]

yes u r absolutly correct.

this is our hom, we have to take care of our sweet home.

[bruceegoose]

i like how the helecopter is sitting on the "melting" glaciers

[b378he]

You folks need to worry about things closer to your knowledge and your current environment. You are dangerous. A four day trip to Greenland hardly makes you an expert. You don't speak to any one but yourselves.

[gategate55]

who said they were experts, it was never mentioned that they were experts. seems they just want to learn more about this theory of global warming. i don't want to challenge your expertise on the subject, but is it so wrong to want to learn about our own earth?

[johnbooy1]

We know that 20% of our personal carbon footprint is from air travel, maybe we should all fly to witness the carnage. Dah!

[ajita30]

Um where is the science? why is this series just a buch of vlogs it has nothing to add to the debate

[toobmonkey]

I um think I have never seen a um video with such a dramatic use of the word dramatic and um so many um opinions from um so many uninformed people who are um seeing this landscape for the first um time. It's really um dramatic.

Science content == nil.

[MajorScam]

Yawn yawn, who paid for the Holiday anyway?? They kept saying things like "all the people & scientists we spoke too" when...where? they just spoke a load of cr@p every time the cam was on them, just listen to what that stupid woman says at 2:29 again...go on play it again!. How did they get there anyway...Fly? What would be good is if and the 5th day they get crushed and die under melting pile of horse sh@t or shot. Pretentious TW@TS

[paulg22]

You can't go to Greenland and "witness" global warming. There's no context by which to judge what's going on. NWF is just hoodwinking people. Fact is, a warming similar to the last decade, though more rapid, occurred in the 1920s and was likely accompanied by the same glacier acceleration. All before man could have contributed. In other words, recent events in Greenland fall within natural variation.

[hornettb]

I can't help but think this is a boondoggle because nothing is really said that can't be said in America. Show us! Show us a time lapse video with stakes positioned to prove ice is moving at 2 ft/day. Show us the dying polar bears because of global warming. Don't just talk about the beauty in 3-5 minute installments. People need to see your work not your working "vacation". This is why I don't donate to some of these non-profits..

[tekstmester]

its just too much nonsense at one time. Take a watercycle home to your airconditioned homes and 8 cylinder cars, so you dont create more pullution in Greenland that you allready have done by flying helikopters and jets.

Its so pathetic when wellmeaning folks like you knows everything about Greenland for one trip.

Come back in the wintertime. No? Too cold.

[TroyJone]

i live in denver, we get ice and winter last longer then 2 months lol

[viper5191]

this is exactly why noone takes environmentalists seriously.Global warming is a big issue, you will find ice in Greenland in the winter, you will also find it in Colorado. That doesnt negate the fact Greenland shouldnt be melting as fast as it is. Please, if anyones thinking of shipping their sorry asses up to Greenland to see ice melt, please give the travel money to someone qualified to come bak with some educational information so we can get over all this bullshit ignorance.

[bigdogcoda]

Holy shit ice in colorado,last time i was there it was dry as a bone, and winter lasts like what two months. lets work on that spelling!

[DairyNZ]

I feel sorry for these people (tourists). If you go to Greenland in summer you will see ice melting, go in winter and it's back again. They have been fed a load of Bull waste.

[bigdogcoda]

Bullshit wow big word,I live up north be wize about what you say, it's happening all right.

[larrypoland]

Very informative and very scarey.

[PELICANOCHILENO]

This type of reporting is to desguise a political tinted vacation and get a tax credit at the end of the fiscal year.

¿Do you know you can do political activism while traveling in democratic undevelop countries? Yeah, and tell them about global warming!!

[alystyn]

Where is the science? I just watched all four videos and it's all just a dumb vacation video, no real information. :(

[reknehs27]

I dont recall seeing the interviews with the locals. I saw the locals, but did not here them speak. BTW THE PLACE IS CALLED GREENLAND!

Glaciers flow, that what they do..so stop crying! lol

[cybervigilante]

The morons who say there is no global warming also believed there were WMDs in Iraq. Rightwing Asshole is an oxymoron.

[Saohesc]

You've put it a bit strongly... But I have to agree that anyone who believes that global warming is made-up is a total moron. But... an oxymoron is when you put two seemingly opposite words together. I can't think of a word for phrases that are redundant..

[jhg3]

So you are saying there is no natural global cycle of warming and cooling? No one denies there is global warming, smart people recognise that its not man made, nature has a much bigger role in the cycles on earth.

[acis1986]

There is no scientist that would claim natural cycles aren't at work, whether it would be the solar output, thermohaline, or hydrological cycle. It's just that we are experiencing consecutive extremes that's aren't consistent with the cycles. Like rising temperatures, more frequent El Ninos, or acceleration of glacier flow.

[jhg3]

In 2 spots this year human artifacts have been uncovered by a retreating glacier. A mine in Switzerland and a camp in Greenland. This means that peole once lived in these places in the last 5000 to 15000 years. Glacers do retreat. Find me El Ninos records past 800 years, come on. There are submarine caves in the Carribean that were open to air within the last several thousand years, glacial ice.

[kakachicken]

Ooh, you guys are harsh here in the comments.

&Yes, I am concerned about global warming.

[kevbo67]

Just a bunch of Smug ASSHOLES that like the smell of their own farts.

[motorhead101]

AMEN

[0Avissa0]

the bible says that we must take care of the earth that God has granted to us. so how dare you use a word of praise just to make yourself seem superior by insulting concerned people.

[0Avissa0]

oh yeah, people who don't want to kill off everything on earth and care about the fact that you have a happy and healthy life are total idiots. why would you like someone who cares about your well being so much??

[kevbo67]

What the fuck does your God have to do with anything? AMEN is not just a religious term. The church is full of Smug ASSHOLES that like the smell of their own farts.

[Greenlink36]

These videos sure aren't very inspiring sames like just a lot of rich Americans going on a holiday to talk about something they no nothing about. but Global Warming is real just look at sat pictures of the north pole, every year the ice cape makes a new record low.

[ronniesmith99]

The dogs were probably happy that it finally started to warm up. The village is probably happy that more fresh water is entering the sea so that they can reduce the energy consuption required to desalinize the water. (Notice the TEXACO oil barrel on the shoreline.)

[Saohesc]

Yeah, but in that case they probably would have been mining the ice for fresh water for a long time. Which it seems they haven't. I tell ya, cutting it and melting it seems pretty easy too if they're just as happy to see the ice stay or go.

[ronniesmith99]

Why didnt they show us the evidence that they saw while they were there? All they did was talk about the evidence. Anyone can do that to support what they beleive.

[flacman77]

Blame it on testing nukes in our atmosphere back in the day...it has nothing to with today...this is a scare tactic from the new world order so they can get their claws into another potential strength region...

[codename36]

Democrats use "Global Warming" to sidetrack people from the real issues like the fucking war and the terrorists who wanna kill us. But let me guess, you probably think terrorists are a myth right? You probably think the government is behind 9/11 huh? You fucking dumasses can't think for yourselfs!

[miamicole]

Does the decrease in the earth's magnetic sphere have anything to do with global warming? They don't talk about that one do they? How many of you knew that the earth's magnetic sphere is decreasing? It is. And it's is letting in ever increasing amounts of the suns radiation. But that doesn't fit into the agenda. Ahh forget it.

[conhopper78]

No no, youre right miamicole. But it is not yet the problem, connected with the GW. I have heard that the sun currently has a raising activity which will continue to grow until 2012 when the activity reaches the maximum output. So, i think its just natural that its getting warmer for the next couple of years.

[Psychobob6]

maybe, if these hippys would stop smokin ur ganja, there wouldn't be so much co2.

[heeroyuy06571]

man law! yes thank, some one on you actually knows what they are talking about mmgw is A LIE!!!! and these fags and old men arent scientist they are probly all retired and know nothing of GW we cant get any info from these fatsos, its freakin gay

[gaylabee]

good video it is important and we should all be thinking about it other wise it would be bad

[jusatnk]

Most un-informative piece of crap. I am concerned about global warming, but this group don't know what the hell they are talking about or what they are after. Imbeciles.

[koaquira]

Bunch of FREAKS doing Tourism in Greenland.

THE PROBLEM OF THIS WORLS IS THOSE PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE, WHEN IN FACT THEY ARE THE PROBLEM, FUEL BURNERS, CRAP PHILOSOPHERS, GROWNUP EMOS ! STOP BURNING FUEL WITH CRAP ENVIRONMENTAL TOURISM.

STOP TALKING AND FARTING AND YOU MAY HELP THE EARTH YOU F* MORONS

[krt954]

What a load of crap! These people don't even know what the hell they are talking about. In the 70S we where going back to an ice age. The earth has and will change time and time again. We could not change the weather if we had to. No one on earth even knows how it works most of it is just guess work.

[f11R2]

its nice how some people are enjoying the global warming...

DO SOMETHING

[coolbreeze32526]

with the technology we poses as humans we should be able to make a damn glacier ourselves so stop watching the damn thing melt and get to makeing huge ice cubes dumbass!

[Saohesc]

and we should be able to make diamonds out of coal.

[jhg3]

Diamonds are being made today out of carbon atoms, in Massachusetts and Florida. They use sputter technology and build diamonds one atom at a time.

[noor5045]

thanks

[jhg3]

If global Warming is a natural process then there is nothing we can do about it. 13,000 yrs ago there was 1000 feet of ice where Boston is today. Thats how Cape Cod was formed. This is a natural process, its happened 4 times in the last 140,000 years. Clean air is good but crying over a earth born dynamic will not help. Think.

[markrskinner]

It is natural.

MMGW is a total lie.

[ronniesmith99]

I agree mostly, but Cape Cod is a spit feature that was formed from ocean currents and sand deposition, not ice.

[jhg3]

I disagree. Where did you get that info.? Quote from "the geologic story of cape cod" "The continental ice sheet advanced across Cape Cod to the islands about 23,000 years ago. Its maximum advance is marked today by gravel deposits on the continental shelf and by the outwash plains and moraines on the Islands."

[Steiner1515]

Rich people cause global warming more than normal people because they have bigger houses, better cars etc and have the lights on constantly take baths every day and more things. Besides its october there will be many bonfires which will fuck it up more by setting more gases in the air like wtf nobody cares. They dont understand what they are doing.

[jhg3]

GW is a natural process and we cannot influence this natural process to any real degree.

[jhg3]

In China each night 1.2 bil. people light their coal stoves and coal furnaces to cook dinner and heat their homes. No filtering emissions. Even Al Gore does not generate that much dirty air.

[tymmur]

The ice melts like it always has. It's completely naturally for a glacier to melt during the summer and freeze during the winter. The real question is if it melts more ice than it would naturally and that's really hard to tell.

If you look at the ship logs telling about ice in the waters from the 19th century until today, you will notice a pattern indicating the amount of released ice follows a sine curve with a period of 70 years. (continues)

[tymmur]

This means that not only should we be at a peak right now (telling that the ice should start to return shortly), it also means that changes comes really slowly in large systems like this.

Now I want to know how these people can look at ice for less than a week and tell that it melts due to global warming.

We should still care for the environment, but we should put our resources in places where real science can tell that it matters. (continues)

[tymmur]

It looks like the public forgot about acid rain (which is caused by burning sulfur, which is an impurity in oil and coal), issues regarding nuclear waste, loss of rain forest, growing deserts... the list is long. If you want to do something for the polar bear (it was mentioned once), then how about stop filling the seas with waste from the industry that ends up in sea animals that the polar bear eats and accumulates and giving it problems reproducing.

P.S. damnt that 500 char limit

[starryhawk]

I liked these videos. Thanks for making them.

[dmvsi]

This film keeps mentioning "research" and I am not seeing any real research presented here. This is an attempt to play on the emotions of those watching without presenting any scientific evidence of anything. Was all the real research removed for easier viewing by the uneducated public? I wasted my time watching this in hopes of some real scientific information, not just "teary eyes."

[tojo1200]

While I cant believe the human race can be arrogant enough to think we can't afect the climate after 100 odd years of burning fossle fuels,the making of this film has done more harm to the enviroment than will ever do good! In Australia we call this type of trip a junket

[nintendoXO]

i was thinking the EXACT same thing....

[PlanetThoughts]

Nicely filmed, but... there is no scientific information to help the viewer understand what is happening. One of the videos mentions ice slipping 2 meters per day... but is that faster than it used to be? No mention of that. All those bare areas they show over 4 days... no one says whether they were bare 20 or 40 years ago. I do believe that we are causing warming, and have done temperature modeling (star modeling for astrophysics) so I do understand that science is clear on this.

[ocbeachman]

This has got to be the weakest piece of propaganda I have seen! Just plain ignorant. LOL

[drmyi]

The oil and gas industries do more than refine

and sell their products. They also MANUFACTURE

UNCERTAINTY with the help of Big Oil politicians like Senator Inhofe. Inhofe has a whole staff of people whose job it is to fill up comments on blogs and YT manufacturing uncertainty which is one of the goals

of good old Exxon PR.

[drmyi]

I can see the YTer's here really are

demanding lot, searchers for truth and the cold hard facts. Rupert Murdoch has said it's man made. Mr conservative right wing vampire himself is going to clean up News Corps pollution footprint. RNC talking points memo..."he's just saying that to make a

buck by going green" or "he's no scientist".

Even THE INSURANCE COMPANIES are saying it's

man made and they would love to pass the

buck to God or sun activity.

[sparticus411]

its accepted by all major scientists to be a ligitimit problem that needs attention...

[sparticus411]

global warming does happen naturally all the time, but we are speeding the process up with the huge amounts of co2 being pumped into our atmosphere.

[sparticus411]

This vid sucks, but i can not believe what i'm reading. "Global warming is a non-issue"...??? Damn, please take your head out of your ass.

[nzoomed]

global warming is natural and is not caused by man check out "the great global warming swindle" and get all the facts predictweather dot com has great info too, total co2 is only 0.54% of the atmosphere, and only 0.2% of that in total is from us, co2 increases after the earth heats up, greenland expands and melts all the time

[awksedgreep]

I've seen enough facts to strongly suggest global warming has nothing to do with CO2.

I watched this video to hopefully prove me wrong and there are NO FACTS in this video.

Just a lot of very compassionate people who love life.  While I appreciate that, I'm still not convinced one way or the other.

This video was a complete waste of time.

[captnvince00]

YO DOUCHE BAG !!! If everyone one the planet lived like people in the west (U.S,Canada,U.K and emerging countries such as China and India...) we would need about 5 to 6 planets. Go on the internet and look your ecological footprint. Just type ecologial footprint on google and you can calculate yours and make some changes to your lifestyle.

(P.S: The harsh title is only to catch peoples attention! otherwise none will read this and nobody will change the world.)

[Literatus29]

There seems to be an endless supply of nutty feel-good people. Mouthing off the Gore church of Gaia doctrine. Makes me puke!

[kheao]

Quite obvious that you should close your mouth and swallow! You haven't the slightest idea what Gaia Theory is all about. Suggest you read some of James Lovelock's latest writings on Gaia. I doubt you would find Mr Gore in Lovelock's camp.

[gimplar]

Yeah I guess the panel responsible for awarding Nobel peace prizes is pretty nutty!

[mindlobster]

Global warming is a non issue, however pollution is a problem and it should'nt be fixed with MOAR FUCKING TAXES.

[Grey80002]

Could of at least showed the lakes forming on top of the glacier... nothing... no melting glaciers except for the intro, no lakes, no nothing... a village of 45 people with fishing problems. Where is the stuff on global warming?

We don't give a crap how a nice a time you had. The non-stop flight, the nice van, the nice boat... what about global warming?

[TailChasser]

If the sizes of halibut are shrinking, it's not due to a rise in global temps but rather due to over fishing.

[slowhandchad]

The previous video they are talking about the dog sleds and such. If any of them really gave a crap what's up with the helicopter.

[BlindDogFulton]

I feel like catching myself a n00b.

Let's see how many respond. Time to use the old n00b caller! (It also seems to work on liberals...) -

"Global warming is not, repeat, NOT humanity's fault. It is a natural climate cycle and we are simply warming up, probably from the last ice age."

*cracks knuckles* Now we wait. N00bs come a-runnin' when they hear stuff like that.

[glenntroyer]

The world has been going through warming and cooling cycles since the beginning of time. How arrogant of humans to think that they have the power to change the climate! This global warming issue is the biggest hoax of the century. These alarmists even travel the globe in helicopters and private jets...lol...all the while telling me that I am the one who needs to shrink my "carbon footprint".

[Vuylbeek]

Totally lacking in any interest. A soppy waste of time. Not one shred of intelligent argument. Pathetic!

[Camo4x4s]

Yeah, I agree... that was even more boring than Al Gores arguments. No itelligence in the video. It was like, we saw this and that this is so beautiful I love this place blah blah blah it makes we want to shed a tear. Makes me want to cry it's soo boring!

[jonpoh0402]

So let me understand... they can fly planes and helicopters up there to look around and produce this meaningless video that shows no proof of anything, sounds to me like they are part of the problem. Why don't they try electric airplanes or hybrid helicopters. The earth goes thru many natural changes over the course of thousands of years. Ever think this is just another one of those natural changes?

[GuitarBob6]

Still no proof. Blah blah blah. Happy Birthday! What a freaking waste of a video. Looked like a nice trip of sight seeing but I was really thinking they would show something like where the coastline used to be and where it is today - something like that. Just more hot air from the snobs.

[dlpine]

agreed, guitarbob6. i was expecting to see examples, measurements, etc.

[OverHillOverDale]

I watched the 4-day series. The series would have been more effective with a bit more support for the argument that global warming is occuring rather than rhetoric and a percieved "vacation" in Greenland. YouTube is an excellent media, but was not used effectively for the series.

[raist2]

Scientists worldwide supports the existence of man-made global climate change, period. And this is the consensus of real scientists across the worlds, not a handful of misinformed and/or politically motivated posters on Youtube. But please, don't take my word for it; google the IPCC and read the reports.

Global warming in Greenland my arse. Planes crashed in Greenland 60 years ago and have recently been dug up. Have a guess how deep they had to dig considering global warming etc. They where on top of rocks? 5 feet? NO 260 FEET!! thats right in the last 60 years 260 feet of ice was deposited on top of those planes. Explain that MR Global warming. Google- ww2 planes found in greenland under ice

I just can't believe a person with an American accent. Go home, septic and make something you can export. You have no credibility left in this world. And get rid of your depleted uranium bullets and humvees, creep.

Most of the people who put negative comments on this page either work for big gas and oil firms, are shareholders in these types of firms, don't love their kids, or don't have any, or are the type of person that if given the chose between saving a persons life or making loads of money would take the money. If everyone just did a little bit to stop global warming we could slow it down and stop it all together. I can hear their voices 20 years from now "O'no where's all this water coming from"

that would be a good point if global warming existed, but it doesn't... the ice caps have been melting and sea level rising miniscule amount (a few centimeters every couple decades) but snowfall on the icecaps is also the highest its been in a while... icecap disappearance is an illusion, its growing up, not out

ecoy is so right.. i think the whole birthday cake thing is the perfect example of it. wat a bunch of hippie wannabies

[ecoy75232]

don't ya hate it when stupid rich folks act like they're really interested in our planet when they're only there for the freebie trip and don't have a clue about hardship or life? (not all of em in the film fit into that category...1 or 2 sound sincere but the rest ....sheesh....

[Iphylm2]

Am I to understand, then, that you belong to the bright poor folks who really care about the planet and that really know about hardship in this life?....So what are you doing about life on this planet or, for that matter, life in the U.S.?

[jonpoh0402]

Were you speaking to me or to the video's producer? What is your point?

[whatifi]

It was a reply to ecoy75232....this reply is to jonpohO402.

[Iphylm2]

It was directed at ecoy75232. ....I know, this gets confusing..The "rich folks" reaction by a lot of people is missing the real point of the debate, which is not so much about whether global warming is a fact as it is about who is partially to blame. Curiously, the debate gets political. It shouldn't be.

We need to also think about polar cities for the future, year 2500 or so. Google the term or Wikipedia it or look for my blog of same name: polar cities. We need them.

Nice to see the NWF adressing global warming.
