Warming Scare Tactics | Ice Sheets

"Great masses of ice have now been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, ...at many points well-known glaciers have entirely disappeared."; - The Washington Post, 1922

"What If All the Ice Melts?" Myths and Realities (Wm. Robert Johnston, B.A. Astronomy, M.S. Physics)

QUOTE (Wm. Robert Johnston)

Arctic Ocean pack ice = 0.01 % Fraction of world ice - The melting of floating ice will not change sea level: the mass of this ice is equal to that of the water it displaces (watch the water level in a cup of floating ice cubes as they melt).

QUOTE (Wm. Robert Johnston)

Based on what we know now, in the next 100 years a rise in sea level of 0.1 meters (4 inches) would not be surprising; those predicting changes of 0.5-2 meters (1.5-7 feet) are using flawed models.

Icebergs - Keeping Tabs on Icebergs (National Geographic)

QUOTE (National Geographic)

Icebergs have been common in the North Atlantic since the early days of ocean travel, long before global warming was an issue. And Antarctica’s ice sheets have been observed retreating and advancing as far back as 1841 [...] Icebergs won’t cause sea levels to rise. Because they were part of ice that was floating to begin with, they will not add volume once separated.

Global Warming Fact...

Global warming alarmists would have you believe that a rise in CO2 causes temperature rise. However, this is exactly the opposite of what is actually happening. In general temperatures have risen 400-1000 years BEFORE CO2 starts to rise
