Mount Shasta glaciers growing, despite warming

The Russians don’t believe the IPCC forecasts, but they do believe their own eyes.

In 2002, a 22-million ton piece of ice broke off the gigantic Maili Glacier and crashed down a steep gorge into the village of Kami. It killed more than 150 people and injured hundreds more.The 500-foot wall of ice had been growing for six years. The Maili Glacier is just one of several glaciers in the North Caucasus Mountains that have been expanding at an alarming rate.

Other towns in the region have been partially buried by these advancing walls of ice. One local scientist in southern Russia said, “We may be seeing the beginning of a new great ice age!!!”

IT'S A CATASTROPHE!

Must be one of those obstinate right-wing glaciers.

Global warming is shrinking glaciers all over the world

I don't bother reading an article that starts with a lie.

Because invariably, what follows is crafted to support said lie.

The new economic machine of Global Warming will kill us all!
AL GORE, YOU LIE.

Now where is that cfc thread that “creates” warming. Dots Dots Dots

[Fred Nerks]

thanks, you’ll love this 1975 article on Global Cooling!

Glaciologists say most glaciers in Alaska and Canada are retreating, too, but there are too many to study them all.

Climate change is causing roughly 90 percent of the world's mountain glaciers to shrink, said Thompson, the Ohio State glacier expert.

Uh huh. Too many glaciers to measure in North America, but they know 90% are retreating world wide.

Global warming is shrinking glaciers all over the world,

They start off with a lie, giving credence to global warming and telling a lie about shrinking glaciers. At least they told the truth about Mt. Shasta.

"It hasta be Shasta"

Tx for the pic.

[marsh2]

I have it on good authority that the phenomenon is attributable to the Lemurians

[steelyourfaith]

Thanx !

 

Beam me to Planet Gore !

[steelyourfaith]

Awesome !

Global warming is shrinking glaciers all over the world, but the seven tongues of ice creeping down Mount Shasta's flanks are a rare exception: They are the only long-established glaciers in the lower 48 states that are growing.

Samantha needs to examine her sources of information.

"When people look at glaciers around the world, the majority of them are shrinking," said Slawek Tulaczyk, an assistant professor of earth sciences at the University of California, Santa Cruz, who led a team studying Shasta's glaciers. "These glaciers seem to be benefiting from the warming ocean."

Slawek needs to do the same.

From Mt. Shasta and south into the Mayacamas, that area is filled with bizarre cults like I AM and Bhagwan followers. They’re buying up land and building barbed-wire compounds. When I lived in the area, I always carried a pump shotgun and strapped a magnum on my hip, in case I met feral dog packs or feral hippys. So not only are glaciers growing, so are the number of brainless robots as they migrate in.

That would be a great area to go into and write a book about these cults, but you’d probably disappear within weeks.

Isn't this an old story?

But still true. I posted this pic before...Mt Shasta taken in June of 2006.

It's a nice place, but some real weirdo’s live there as mentioned...

The high mountains have a special place in my bosom as having skied the west years back....deep powder, spectacular views.
Obviously Shasta is one heck of a great mountain massive. Nice to see it is being used to demonstrate the falsehood regarding ABW and GW in general.

Thanks Ernest_at_the_Beach and aquila48 for the pings. But of course, now I'm thirsty...

Lemuria...Good grief!!! Forgot about the precurser to Atlantis.
I’m slipping in my history of the world.

Thanks for refreshing me.

Did you hear what Madam Blavatsky said about Lemuria?
