    Default Ultimate Irony

    An expedition to the summer Antarctic to gather evidence of global warming is...wait for it...STUCK IN ICE!

    This should win the "You can't make this stuff up" award for 2014.

    sarcasm alert
    It's "climate change" DUUUH!
    Of Course there's to much ice, that's what climate change predicts, annnnd if the polar bears are drowning because there's not enough ice then THAT'S what it predicts too. And it all Mans fault.

    Should win the award for the entire decade IMHO.

    So, you're saying that there shouldn't be ice in Antarctica?

    No, that would be the expedition's expectation though...summer time in Antarctica with their supposed global warming going on. It kind of like getting eaten by a polar bear when trying to prove their extinction.

    So Global warming is a Myth?

    When some country towns are now recording temperatures of 54C in a Neutral (not El Nino or La Nina) year, something is amiss with our climate.

    This is one of the headlines from last night's News.

    100 years of measuring the weather patterns is just a blip on the radar.

    Trigg. Next month, I will be 67. And, for as long as I can remember being aware of what the Weather was. EVERY year. We have had a COLD Winter, HOT Summer, and mixed FALL, and SPRING.

    The Earth has been doing this kind of stuff longer than the number of Human beings on Earth.

    Anyone who needs to blame our WEATHER on human beings...for the ALMIGHTY BUCK is either dumb, stupid, or both.

    You need to get out more...cause yeah...it's a myth. They had to rename it to Global Climate Change when the cooling trend of the last few years occurred.

    2013 was the hottest year on record for us. Some of our inland towns are posting record highs. They had to redo temperature scales on maps last year to take into account increased temperatures. Some of our farmers are going bust due to the drought.
    Global WARMING is a very real thing for Australians.

    There is a difference between a regional hot spell and global warming.

    Righto - global warming is systemic, chronic - not accute. People can cherry pick instances, yet deny the trend data.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    jafar. Since you claim to be so highly intelligent. Demonstrate some of that knowledge, and backup your claims Historically by remembering something WE, here in the U.S. experienced many years ago called..."THE DUST BOWL".

    Then try to tell all of us how terrible the temps were down there in OZ.
