"This is a major issue because declining ice caps mean the water tap is effectively going to be turned off and that is a major concern."

This makes absolutely no sense. If the "water tap" depends on melting ice, guess what that means? The ice cap has to melt, ergo, disappear at some point.

I guess all the snow got shifted to Chicago today, anyway.

Planting 2 million trees in 4942 acres over 30 years equals
7.721 square miles of trees. That should take care of "Global Warming"!

<<< Dr. Vincent Keipper was in the right place at the right time to get this photo of the crumbling Furtwängler Glacier on Mt. Kilimanjaro. The photo is dramatic evidence of the glacier's recession. Room-size blocks of ice tumbled across the trail Keipper had hiked the day before. >>>

If he hadn't been there, it wouldn't have happened!!!!!

Conveniently for the faux-scientists, they won't be around when this is proven false.
