Usually in mid-August, Greenland’s surface mass balance (SMB) is LOSING 4 Gigatons of snow & ice a day. Not yesterday, however — on Aug 10, 2020, the ice sheet GAINED a record-smashing 4 Gigatons of global warming goodness (and just listen to the silence coming from the MSM, it has so much to say).

Before this year, the Greenland ice sheet had never grown anywhere-close to 4 Gigatons in any of the months of June, July, or August, according to DMI records (which go back to 1981). In addition, the DMI record books also reveal that yesterday’s 4 Gt GAIN smashed the previous mid-Aug record by over 2 full Gigatons.

Butt, butt, butt.............. Since this is from a couple weeks ago I'm sure it's all melted off in an attempt to cover NYC in water. Liquid water that is. Maybe some Indian Summer (can I say that?)warming will help the melt. Ecotossers. What don't they know?

For those that don’t know yet, there is TONS of information here from a rational viewpoint: https://realclimatescience.com/

also, the Tony Heller youtube channel is extremely informative. Go to the Climate Playlist there: https://www.youtube.com/c/TonyHeller/playlists

Bone up on his stuff and climate alarmists won’t have a prayer when you debate them.

A couple of months ago the tiny violins were playing for Greenland’s Ice Melt in a USA Today article.

“Since this is from a couple weeks ago”

The Rats’ convention pre-empted this, so Big Media added GIGATONS to the vocabulary — of the reporters not yet qualified and trusted to handle the job against Trump and his family.

That’s because the Erf has tiled and the Tropic of Capricorn is now running through the Northern states, so we are all going to die ipso facto

Once again, a few simple questions for the ecowankers:

1. Define the “correct” temperature range for the planet.

2. Define the “correct” humidity range for the planet.

3. Define the “correct” mean sea level for the planet.

4. Define the “correct” amount of precipitation for the planet.

5. Define the “correct” makeup of the atmosphere.

6. Define the “correct” amount of sea ice at the N/S poles.

7. Define/explain past glaciation and subsequent warming without any input from humans.

Should be fairly easy for their brilliant minds.

This is horrifying news!

The weight of all that snow is certain to force more of the glaciers into the ocean causing a rise in sea level and inundating all of the Pacific island chains.

Please send Greta and AOC there with snow shovels to help remove this excess snow!
