We will soon learn from Algore that atmospheric carbon dioxide causes the earth's mantle to melt.

“However, to effectively separate and quantify human impacts on climate change, we must understand the natural impacts, too.

And there, my friends is the $64 question.

Unfortunately this poor fellow didn't get the memo about not mentioning such a thing, so expect him to lose his grant funding very shortly.

[ari-freedom]

I guess this means we’ll just have to tax the earth.

Cool! Soon we may be able to farm Greenland!

“Ice streams have to have some reason for being there. And it's pretty surprising to suddenly see one in the middle of an ice sheet,” von Frese said.

The newly discovered hotspot is just below the ice stream, and could have caused it to form, the researchers concluded. But what caused the hotspot to form?

“It could be that there's a volcano down there,” he said. “But we think it's probably just the way the heat is being distributed by the rock topography at the base of the ice.”

No...no...no...the Goracle said it's Global Warming, and Bush's fault, AND that the debate is over - so it can't be...

However, it could also turn out to be Bush's fault in another way...perhaps this is the long lost "secure" location for the Bush Administration...

Didn’t AlGore invent magma?

[darkwing104]

We are doomed.

[Publius6961]

Another classic scientific D'OH! moment...

[Steve_Seattle]

Just the other day, someone posted a graphic of Greenland showing that the ice has actually THICKENED in recent years over most of the central land mass. Around the periphery, there were a few isolated areas where the ice was diminishing. Perhaps this story explains the graphic; subterranean hotspots are causing localized melting.

Naw. It's because we're taking all of the oil out of the ground. removing a layer of insulation or sumthin

[Paco]

Well this just can’t be! Because if it is, that would mean that science doesn’t have all the answers when it comes to global warming! And Algore and a huge consensus of scientists have said that the debate is over and it’s clear - the earth is warming and we’re the cause. Someone needs to get fired over this...that or committed to a mental hospital because this report is just crazy I tell you, crazy! ;o)

[Optimus Prime]

I remember something about a silver mine becoming uncovered which showed that, in the early AD or even the BC era, the Earth was as warm or warmer than it is, today. Anyone also hear the same? If so, can you please provide a link? I’m trying to dig up that story. Thanks.

Nope. It's a leftover from Karl Rove's irresponsible use of earthquake machines.

“We will soon learn from Algore that atmospheric carbon dioxide causes the earth’s mantle to melt.”

Not at all, I am sure it is something that Bush did.. OR whoever the Republicans pick for their Presidential candidate... lol

[Texaspeptoman]

Come-on you guys.... It’s, it’s the spacer scientists from the planet Aurora activating and increasing earth’s radioactivity. You see it IS humans that’s causing global warming. Asimov told us so!!!

[PeteB570]

These Earth Firsters really need to watch “Dangerous Catch”.

Last winter the skippers were complaining that the ice was way farther south than they had seen in decades.

[theBuckwheat]

While pondering the meaning of just how fast Greenland’s ice is melting and what it means for the climate, recall that in July of 1942 a flight of US aircraft being ferried to England for use in the war had to make a forced landing on Greenland.

Some 50 years later one of these aircraft was recovered. It was BURIED IN 268 FEET OF ICE. No, it hadn’t sunk, that was how much had accumulated. Even a graduate of public schools in the US can figure out that much ice would have to melt to take us back to the level it was back in 1942.

This magma-made meltdown must be mitigated, stopped and reversed. Can't we throw
the ultra-cool Al Gore (and the ice-cold Hillary Clinton) down a volcano tube somewhere?
Sure, I know a lot of Nobel, Oscar and Emmy award-deciders might object, but look on
the brighter side: This way they could get rid of their embarrassment once and for all.

[Verginius Rufus]

We knew that Karl Rove could make hurricanes change course, but who would have suspected that he could cause a thinning of the earth’s crust? What a guy!

[vpintheak]

I can guarantee this will not be in the MSM.
