Washington Post - Climate Change
06/19/17 at 04:48:36
 
    The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulafft, at Bergen, Norway.

   Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

   Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds.



   I apologize, I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 1922. As reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post — 88 years ago!

Best regards,

Well, since it was That Bad all those years ago, and since we know what the end result of such horrific climate change is, the only rational conclusion is, We're all dead.

port by Australian researcher John Cook.

Cook’s paper found of the scientific study “abstracts expressing a position on [manmade global warming], 97.1% endorsed the consensus position that humans are causing global warming.” But Cook’s assertion has been heavily criticized by researchers carefully examining his methodology.

A paper by five leading climatologists published in the journal Science and Education found only 41 out of the 11,944 published climate studies examined in Cook’s study explicitly stated mankind has caused most of the warming since 1950 — meaning the actual consensus is 0.3 percent.

I've never seen the original study with the questions listed that produced the 97% figure.

Ask the average person what % of the population is gay and they'll probably say 10% because that's what has been repeated over and over. Yet the actual % is between 2 and 3%. There was one flawed study  ,conducted in a prison I think, and that figure is repeated for political purposes.  If 10% of the population were really gay, they would be a voting block that would control elections. If 97% of scientists really were totally on board with global warming in the Al Gore sense of the phrase, coal plants would have been burned down and we'd all be paying $25 for a gallon of gas!
