Global Warming Propaganda from CNN

in the teaser to this segment, CNN says scientists say they know less about antarctica than the moon, but in the package they are sure an antarctic lake is caused by global warming... a lake that's under 2 MILES OF ICE.

also in this package they claim that the increased snowfall and growing ice shelf in other parts of antarctica are caused by global warming as well.

what a joke.

Wingham 2007:

"As global temperatures have risen, so have rates of snowfall, ice melting, and glacier flow. Although the balance between these opposing processes has varied considerably on a regional scale, data show that Antarctica and Greenland are each losing mass overall. Our best estimate of their combined imbalance is about 125 gigatons per year of ice, enough to raise sea level by 0.35 millimeters per year.”

Sorry but your data is out of date

@cthulhu11111111 I can go on and on, but you get the idea. Your word parsing does not change the scientific evidence. Nice try lying AGW propagandist. XD

@cthulhu11111111 Dr Duncan Wingham, Professor of Climate Physics at University College London and Director for Polar Observation and Modelling, presented evidence that showed that 72 percent of the Antarctica ice sheet was growing at the rate of 5 millimetres per year. Most significantly, Dr Wingham "That makes Antarctica a sink, not a source, of ocean water. According to their best estimates, Antarctica will 'lower global sea levels by 0.08 mm' per year."

@cthulhu11111111 This paper, published in 2006, shows that the Antarctic ice sheet is gaining enough ice to lower – lower! - global sea levels by 0.08 mm year. The paper, entitled Mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet, was written by UK scientists Wingham, Shepherd, Muir and Marshall, was published online in Phil. Trans. R. Soc. A (2006) 364, 1627–1635, doi:10.1098/rsta.2006.1792,

@cthulhu11111111 Ice core drilling in the fast ice off Australia's Davis Station in East Antarctica by the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Co-Operative Research Center shows that last year, the ice had a maximum thickness of 1.89m, its densest in 10 years.

@cthulhu11111111The vast East Antarctic Ice Sheet — a 2-mile-thick wasteland of ice larger than Australia, increased in mass every year between 1992 and 2003 because of additional annual snowfall, an analysis of satellite radar measurements showed. said David Vaughan, an independent expert on the ice sheets at the British Antarctic Survey in Cambridge, England.

NASA: "Antarctica has been losing more than a hundred cubic kilometers (24 cubic miles) of ice each year since 2002."

NSIDC: "Overall, scientists believe that Antarctica is starting to lose ice"

NOAA: "The mass balance for Antarctica as a whole is close to equilibrium, but with a likely net loss since 2000 at rates of a few tens of gigatonnes per year."

it's a conspiracy isn't it?

[cthulhu11111111]

@bluegsp

so you *are* throwing the NSIDC under the bus.

There aren't overwhelming and numerous reports that the ice sheet is growing. Quite the contrary. Most reports say it is shrinking. We've already established you were talking about sea ice not the ice sheet. If you still think they are the same thing google it.

@cthulhu11111111 Any thoughts on what "Overall, scientists (BELIEVE) that antarctica is(STARTING) to lose ice..." in the face of the overwhelming and numerous reports that that the ice sheet is growing?, yes, many AGW alamists have abandon science and embraced their "faith" in the religion of AGW. The facts are undeniable and liars like you age going no where. XD
