Real Life Antarctica Sea Ice Not Cooperating With Global Warming Hoax
Cultural Limits
05/13/2015

In yet ANOTHER case of the “experts” were oh, so wrong, it seems that the research stations in Antarctica are in danger of being stranded due to the presence of too much sea ice. From The Guardian:

Sea ice around Antarctica is currently at record levels for May, part of a trend of increasing ice around the frozen continent making it harder to resupply and refuel research stations….

Rod Wooding, from the Australian Antarctic Division, said last year ships “couldn’t get anywhere near” the Australian research site, Mawson station, requiring a year’s worth of supplies and fuel to be flown in by helicopter.

“[That] is inadequate for the long-term sustainability of the station,” Wooding said. “Other national programs have had similar problems, the French in particular, the Japanese also.”

Whoops. It seems that the forecasters didn’t see this coming, because according to all the climate models all that sea ice was supposed to be gone by now, or at the very least, thinning as a number of scientific papers posited in the last year.

The current theory on why there is so much sea ice in Antarctica when CLEARLY there shouldn’t be per Global Warming, is that there was a change in wind patterns or something. Wouldn’t be that it’s been colder on this planet of late, would it? Well, according to the “experts” there’s an explanation for that, too.

Tony Worby, the chief executive of the Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems Cooperative Research Centre said, “Those changes of wind are driven by the depletion of ozone in the stratosphere and the increasing greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.”

The El Nino phenomenon, too, “drives changes in pressure which drives changes in wind which drives changes in sea ice”, he said.

Oh, that’s right, it’s an El Niño year. (Wrote about that yesterday. “Is 2015 FINALLY an El Niño Year?” The answer is yes.) As Matt Vespa over at Townhall put it, you mean this is a natural phenomenon???? Gee, imagine that. There’s a record amount of sea ice in an El Niño year – just like the other El Niño years. More greenhouse gases have been blamed on human activity, but so far, no scientist, researcher or climate change “expert” has been able to pin El Niño or his sister La Niña on people.

There are a number of scientists gathered in Hobart in Tasmania this week to discuss better sea ice predicting because at this point, the only way to get to the research stations is via helicopter and that is just too expensive for maintaining the global warming research facilities in Antarctica long term. Plus, the Antarctic researchers want to avoid the debacle of the Akademik Shokalskiy, the research vessel caught in a sudden freeze in December 2013.

Given that the other end of the earth – the Arctic circle – also is seeing record ice in a less than active period of hurricanes and tornadoes, maybe the lack of cooperation from Mother Nature and the sea ice in Antarctica is trying to tell the climate change movement something that would impact us more than anything else they could do: give it up.

NW doesn't seem to understand the difference between the north and south poles.

The only thing about NW that amuses me is how he signs up for brainwashing without giving any thought to what corporations are pumping the soap suds into his head. Your web sites reveal you.

When you guys don't like opposing facts, you go after the source, classic, cheap, and very worn out.

When you have neither the facts nor a clue, you post something from a lunatic that is lying to you. Not surprising.

Opposing facts? It's more like disinformation. There's a lot of difference between what NASA has given us on their website versus that of Cultural Limits, whoever that is. The only reason I highlighted Cultural Limit's bio, which was offered at the end of the article, was for the laugh. Sorry if you missed the humor in all that.

Ampulex Dementor: Wasp Discovered in 2014 Turns Cockroaches Into 'Passive Zombies'
The ampulex was one of 139 species discovered in Asia's Greater Mekong region in 2014. It was named after the dementor monsters in the "Harry Potter" book and film series.

Now I see why you believe big government lies Mac. Zombies only votes for D's who offer them birth to death mind and even climate control.
