However the explosion of the Tambora volcano in the 1815 caused global cooling and 1816 was dubbed “the year without a summer”. In any account, Al Gore’s dogma of man made global warming is pure bunk.

So lets recount - last month scientists reported a large magme chamber that was heating Greenland and possible might be the cause of Ice melts there, and now they have found evidence of a possibly active volcano under Antarctica.

And still we have idiots like McCain spewing the GloBULL warming shiite.

“Another factor might be contributing to the thinning of some of the Antarctica’s glaciers: volcanoes.”


THE FACTOR contributing to melting icecaps is an increase in temperature.

THE FACTOR contributing to Humidity turning into icecaps is a decrease in temperature.

THE FACTOR contributing to an increase or decrease in temperature is the output from the SUN.

“there are also volcanoes melting ice in greenland”

Inactive volcanoes cause the ice to melt.

Active volcanoes cause the ice to freeze.

Global (well, it’s really local, but the word GLOBAL is scarier) WARMING and COOLING is all the fault of volcanoes.

BAN THE VOLCANOES.

Therefore, if GW® gets TOO far out of hand, we can induce one of these babies to go off - VIOLA!! - and it's COOL again!

There was an article in Science Daily regarding the action of volcanoes in Greenland and how they are responsible for most of the observed thinning of the ice.

Look, all the land and sea we live on is a thin plate of cooled rock trapped between the extremely hot sun above and the extremely hot lava below. All the continents, and all the seas, are FLOATING on a huge underlying sea of lava.

To think that when I start my SUV and head for the freeway onramp that I am actually COMPETING with all the sun’s fire and all the earth’s lava as an actual DETERMINING FACTOR in the earth’s climate is a thought that is quite beyond ludicrous.

LMAO - Just now on Letterman they did the top 10 - it was top 10 things heard at the Giants Packers game (3rd coldest in history) - #10 was ‘National Anthem sung by the global warming “genius” Al Gore’
