Well... The USGS knew 40 years ago that the park's glaciers would eventually melt due to Earth's natural warming trend.

Now, the USGS is feeding us a bunch of AGW BS, claiming that the glaciers are melting because of man's activities.

And, whereas they once wouldn't put a time frame on the glaciers' melting, they now jump on the sinking ship that is AGW, and proclaim the park's glaciers will be gone by 2030:

What a bunch of freakin' ecotards!

The fact that mountains north of the park don’t have glaciers anymore should be enough to knock the warmists on their rearends. Why haven’t the Park’s glaciers melted too. Another “inconvenient fact” that they choose to hide from the public. There have been other mountains around the world that have been losing their snowcaps for hundreds of years well before the dawn of the industrial revolution. I believe Kilimanjaro is one of those.

Glaciers are supposed to melt.

Just like they always have been since the end of the last ice age.

when glaciers melt in volcanic regions, it is not because of SUV’s.

Any first-year college-level geology student knows these facts. The AGW scenario is the most flagrant pseudo-scientific/political hoax ever perpetrated in human history.

The greatest scandal of all, IMO, is that the "respectable" scientific establishment has allowed it to proceed almost uncontested for the past 30 years.

What’s the status of the glaciers now, BTW. I was there in ‘65, haven’t been back since ( sob).

It’s another taxation ploy. Marching orders issued are followed by any government funded or related entity ie NASA, EPA, windmill manufactures, etc.....The talking points don’t have to make cents just dollars.
