Safe Mode: On
Greenland Glaciers "Nearing a Catastrophe"




Greenland's Climate Becoming Milder

Is the Arctic climate becoming more temperate? Remarkable new information given by the famous Swedish authority, Professor H.W. Ahlmann in a lecture to the Swedish Geographical Society, suggests that this may be the case.

Professor Ahlmann was speaking on the collated results of his expedition to north-east Greenland, and he stated that the glaciers there shoed clear signs of a change towards a warmer climate. As had been observed in other parts of the Arctic, especially in Spitzbergen, the melting had increased rapidly.

By far the largest number of local glaciers in north-east Greenland had receded very greatly during recent decades, and it would not be exaggerating to say that these glaciers were nearing a catastrophe.

      Not really. Consider it a history lesson.

      That was when the first liberals emerged from their caves.

      And they've been dragging their knuckles ever since.

      No, time did not reverse. I posted it for fun. Peruse some of the comments here and you will see quite clearly who actually reads the posts on which they comment. Qwerty comes to mind.

  • Maybe that's why they called it Greenland because the place used to be green and warn. It's returning to normal from a long period of global cooling.

  • Call Al Gore. he will save us!

    Well, if he will answer his phone...at his recently-purchased beach house.

    Wait, didn't he tell us that we should listen to him or sea levels were going to rise to catastrophic levels?

    Why did he buy a beach house then?!?!?!


    lol...stupid liberal morons.

      Screw yourself Q. It was a news article published in 1940. I posted it "as is." Everything else is your own interpretation. Take it or leave it. Its a bit of history. Everything else amounts to your own delusions.

      No. No. No!

      Back in the 70's we were heading for another ice age. Remember?

      If not, then just ask the prior generation of liberals.

      That is, if they're able/willing to tell you the truth.

      And yes, I do know it was from 1940. That was the point. The doomsayers have been genuflecting for quite a while. The fun comes in watching LL twits like you take it for recent developments.

  • i read this article from the huffington post the other day after someone posted it to facebook. If you read it you will find out this happens every 150ish years. Its not unprecedented. you know they called it Greenland because it was once GREEN.

  • One advantage to biking or e-biking to work is you could feel the changes year on year.

    I certainly can. The last ten have been progressively milder this year just a dusting of snow and hardly any ice at all.
