Greenland is Not Melting

Greenland is still cold... Unfortunately for the global whining crowd, the latest peer-reviewed data shows that - wait for it - Greenland is still cold.

From the US Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works (Sen James Imhoff’s team), here’s the latest:

Latest Scientific Studies Refute Fears of Greenland Melt

Ilulissat, Greenland – The July 27-29 2007 U.S. Senate trip to Greenland to investigate fears of a glacier meltdown revealed an Arctic land where current climatic conditions are neither alarming nor linked to a rise in man-made carbon dioxide emissions, according to many of the latest peer-reviewed scientific findings.  Recent research has found that Greenland has been warming since the 1880’s, but since 1955, temperature averages at Greenland stations have been colder than the period between 1881-1955.

A recent study concluded Greenland was as warm or warmer in the 1930’s and 40’s and the rate of warming from 1920-1930 was about 50% higher than the warming from 1995-2005. One 2005 study found Greenland gaining ice in the interior higher elevations and thinning ice at the lower elevations. In addition, the often media promoted fears of Greenland’s ice completely melting and a subsequent catastrophic sea level rise are directly at odds with the latest scientific studies.  These studies suggest that the biggest perceived threat to Greenland’s glaciers may be contained in unproven computer models predicting a future catastrophic melt. 

Unfortunately, there’s so much money to be made in perpetuating global warming fears that any real scientific evidence that goes against GW dogma will be painted as “big oil propaganda.”

    This website’s claims re: global warming are completely false and also very un-Christian. By denying what is happening you perpetuate it and condemn people to death - which is murder. If there is a Hell, you will surely go there!

    How is denying propaganda un-Christian? And how does that warrant hell?
