Global warming is causing more snow to fall on Antarctica - has slowed rising sea levels by a THIRD
(UK) Daily Mail ^ | December 10, 2018 | Joe Pinkstone

Global warming is causing more snow to fall over Antarctica and it is stunting the surge of rising sea levels.

Scientists have discovered that the increased amount of snow on Antarctica has helped offset rates of twentieth-century global sea-level rise by up to a third.

Since the start of the 20th century the snow on the frozen continent and the Antarctic ice Sheet have played a pivotal role in governing sea level change.

The delicate balance between ice sheets melting and increased snowfall has a major part to play on sea levels around the world.

Warmer air is capable of holding more water vapor....which will precipitate out when cooled.

I don’t know all the details, but I have been led to believe that if we pay more taxes and donate money to the 3rd World, we will be alright.

How did those oh-so amazing climate models miss this? I thought they knew everything and were infallible.

So, what the article is really saying is that the Earth is a auto-correcting closed-loop feedback system.

I thought global warming was going to melt the ice pack. Now it’s going to increase it? Do these idiots really expect to be taken seriously when they can’t keep their story straight?

These people completely ignore water vapor and focus solely on CO2. They’re so stupid.

The oceans are warm, this causes higher moisture in the air and warmer low temperatures - especially in arctic regions. The moisture is transferred into snow because there’s more water vapor in the air, which draws more ocean from the sea. Eventually the cycle will break down and we’ll have colder air in the arctic again that generates less snow.

It all has to do with water vapor and the sun’s activity.

Right, its downhill all the way.

Reminds me of a conversation I had with my first wife about the fact that I had to drive from NH to Va. She remarked that I should save on gas mileage because it is downhill all the way.

These people are pathetic. Every prediction and EVERY MODEL from the past 20 years has been proved wrong. You would think these fools would be too embarrassed to show their ugly heads, but in the Liberal world failure is a resume enhancer. Just ask Beto!

Rapidly rising sea levels = bad.

Sea levels not rising fast enough = bad.

I’m getting dizzy.

All of the predictions of the AGW models are now reversed by side effects of AGW — all to preserve a flawed theory.

  1. War is peace
  2. Freedom is slavery
  3. Ignorance is strength
  4. Global warming causes cooling.
