Meltdown in Antarctica - where and why (Jan. 2008)

Climate changes are melting large ice sheets in areas of Antarctica once thought to be relatively unaffected by global warming.

what a terrible news but it is really happening. let's be involve with the campaign against climate change!

[blite13]

@aiyonadessi How can you stop it? It isn't manmade, this is universal, all planets are going through this change. People like Al Gore know it and use it against us to make us feel guilty and to steal our money. The media reports falsely on it to promote fear and anxiety, it's going to do what it is going to do, nothing you or I or anyone else does, can change it.

Let's stop global warming!!

Lets all do moleculatr nuclear fusion, and live.

[JonThm]

God makes the climate, scientists just use it as a way to get at your money! They don't understand it, but that does not matter.

[JonThm]

The easiest way fro man to do it, is via a steam cycle. And we all get ot live! Cheaply.

[JonThm]

To see how to do molecular nuclear fusion, surf my blog! I put it ll out there.

[JonThm]

The big ball of fire in the sky gives us weather. THe 0.00037% CO2 is of interest only to the stupid. You must be facinated!

[JonThm]

We should do nuclear fusion from water, like the deep sea does: Safe, clean, cheap power. Uranium fisison kills, and we should not allow!
