I said in my rant "Ice shelf break-offs with all of the experts giving their dire predictions..... only to find the following week, that the Australian antartic division reported that ice load is actually increasing, not decreasing as it was supposed to be the week before.....(Those boys will lose their funding, or be forced to recant)
http://bigpondnews.com/articles/Environment/2009/04/18/Study_says_Antarctica_growing_323242.htmlI have no doubt that the greens among us will see this as proving their case?
?"
And 4 days later we see once again on the ABC news site we get this little pearl.... you'll love it Tomw
"The landmark British study has found that contrary to popular belief, sea ice around Antarctica is increasing at a rate of 100 thousand square kilometres a decade.
Drilling has also shown that the ice is the most dense its been for 10 years.
But the team are quick to point out that the findings don't disprove climate change, in fact, quite the opposite.:
They say changes to the ozone layer strengthened surface winds, leading to more ice production."
Surprise Surprise..... they said it was getting thinner because... (prediction and theory from cereal packet inserted here)... but no!! contrary to that well supported and promulgated theory, it turns out to be the opposite....and of course... we naturally support that outcome too.... based on the same model I guess.
So what is truth..... well it's not green.... and thats the truth.
I wish I was surprised by this high speed double speak,.... but I'm not.
