In 2008 Al Gore prophesied that the North Pole would be ice free within 5 years because of man-made global warming. Interestingly, now 6 years later, the latest satellite data show that not only is there plenty of ice, but that the ice cover has actually expanded by 50%, compared to 2012 levels. At the same time, sea ice levels in Antarctica have expanded to record levels and the southern hemisphere now has 19.5 million square kilometers of ice cover, more than at any point since records were first kept in 1978. And back home 86% of the country experienced colder than normal temperatures this winter so it won’t surprise most to learn that the earth’s temperature has not risen in 17 years amidst the huge global warming hype.
As the evidence mounts that global warming is not advancing as predicted, many global warming propagators have changed course to say that instead of warming, carbon emissions will lead to more “climate change” and that this change will result in increased hurricanes, tornadoes and flooding.That may sound plausible, except that it too is not backed by the data.Even the liberally minded United Nations noted that current data shows “no robust trends in annual numbers of tropical storms, hurricanes and major hurricane counts have been identified over the past 100 years in the North Atlantic basin.”
Yet Al Gore calls climate change realists “immoral, unethical and despicable” and we only call him ‘wrong’. Anybody else see the disparity?
