News flash: The Ice Age ended about 10,000 years ago. The glaciers have been shrinking ever since.

Or maybe you'd rather have them grow and run over your house ?

What do you want the glacier to do ?

"TheRealNews" is socialist propaganda (it's even more like the MSM than the MSM is).

LOL. I just clicked on their streaming player - and this guy is complaining: "OMG!!! Corporations can go to where the labor is cheapest! This is terrible! Goods will be made cheaply!! High skilled labor will be freed up to do other things! I hate comparative advantage and freedom!"

[pcosmar]

Good.
Does this mean that the Ice Age is finally over?

Glaciers on California's Mt. Shasta keep growing (http://www.usatoday.com/tech/science/environment/2008-07-08-mt-shasta-growing-glaciers_N.htm)

Mount St. Helens’ Glacier Growing (http://geology.rockbandit.net/2008/04/23/mount-st-helens-glacier-growing/)

It also means less available drinking water, O'Neel said, pointing out that Anchorage's drinking water is derived from runoff from Eklutna Glacier. There's little threat to Anchorage's water supply, but Bolivia's Chacaltaya Glacier disappeared this year, earlier than predicted. Its disappearance worries scientists that other glaciers in the region could be melting faster than expected, potentially threatening water supplies for millions of people in South America.

Glaciers are melting faster so there is LESS available drinking water... hmmm...

In any event, might want to look at CNFO.

The Real News is completely biased. I've been a subscriber of theirs for a while, and they have always bought into the global warming hysteria and skew the facts to fit their purpose. GW is bullshit, I don't feel like giving all the links but the information is out there and man made GW and Gore's Church have been certifiably discredited.

I read all the replies to this thread...let me just add that i love the group of people on this forum. It is good to be home. :)

BREAKING NEWS!!!

Ice Melts!

"TheRealNews" is socialist propaganda

The Real News does a great job covering some stories and yes they also tend to present only one side of story on other issues, just like every other organization.

This is not reason enough in my book to label them and toss them into the nearest garbage bin.

If you are holding out for a perfect news agency you will die unhappy.

I firmly believe in absorbing information from as many sources as possible as I believe that this allows the agenda material to be relatively well canceled out.

Also, don't mistake my posting of a link as promotion of the idea, most of the time if I have posted a link without adding a personal comment it is because I have not made a concrete decision on the topic and are currently in the process of collecting more information from more sources.

As always, I do enjoy intelligent analytical responses and skip the status quo one sentence responses.

:cool:

Are the glaciers in the southern hemisphere getting larger?

Those damn seasons are always trying to pull a fast one.
