More on the spectacular Greenland fraud being published by National Geographic.
For a few days in July of 2012, it was so hot in the Arctic that nearly the entire surface of the Greenland ice sheet turned to slush.
It was so uncharacteristically warm that scientists, emerging from their tents high on the peak of the ice sheet, sank up to their knees in the suddenly soft snow. And then, that snow started melting.
Greenland’s ice is melting faster than it has in 350 years—what it means
Below are the hourly temperatures at Greenland Summit Camp during 2012. There were a total of six hours above freezing. They occurred on July 11, 2012, from 1 PM to 6 PM. The maximum temperature recorded was 0.8C.
By contrast, there were 8,754 hours recorded below freezing, with an average temperature of -29C for the year 2012.

Greenland is gaining ice.
Greenland Ice Sheet’s 2017 weigh-in suggests a small increase in ice mass | NOAA Climate.gov
Greenland’s surface accumulated more than 500 billion tons of new ice in each of the last two years.
The ice sheet is melting faster than in the last 350 years—and driving sea levels up around the world.
Sea level is rising at the same rate as 150 years ago.
Sea Level Trends – NOAA Tides & Currents
Temperatures at the Summit Camp have been averaging about -40C over the past month, and have not gotten above -20C.
This is what the meltdown currently looks like at -35C.
National Geographic describes this as “the fastest melting in 350 years.”

NGS is part of National Geographic Partners and is owned by Disney–So it’s all entertainment!!! Actually it’s good ole fake news at its worst. I suppose geysers instantly sprang up and began pumping billions of gallons of fresh water into the ocean instantly stopping and reversing the gulf stream!!! We don’t know that happened because NGS hasn’t thought to tell that lie yet but they will…..They’re like an NGO, they step up and tell a climate change lie when ever the STATE demands one.
It is obvious like so many organizations the National Geographic Society has been taken over the radical environmentalists. I learned this when I read their article on ocean acidification. The oceans are 0.1 of a pH closer to acid then they have been traditionally. Like temperature, this is something that varies all of the time and the pH has been even closer to acid in the past. Yet, National Geographic’s article treated the 0.1 of a pH closer to acid as if it was a major disaster.
Can’t you make your point in a few clear summary sentences. I have no idea what this is about. Why do I have to open numerous links in order to get it?
It is true that many articles as well as some that comment on this web site use a lot of links. I doubt that most people follow them. If something is worth saying, then it is best to use “a few clear summary sentences.”
It was so uncharacteristically warm that scientists, emerging from their tents high on the peak of the ice sheet, sank up to their knees in the suddenly soft snow. And then, that snow started melting.
These clowns expect us to believe it was so hot during the night it could turn ice into slurry but not hot enough to wake them up while they sleeping in their insulated extreme weather sleeping bags.
National geographic was good for looking at womans’ breasts in yrs. past, but has now become a very liberal mouth piece.
I remember them, all in black and white. You’ve gotta be an old fart like me. LOLLOL
National Geographic has been trying to prove this Darwinism for years back in 1999 they had FEATHERS FOR T-REX? trying to prove that the so called Archoraptor was the missing link between Birds and Dinosours it was later proven to be a total fake and the Taskada tribe in the Philapines a backwards tribe later turned out to be a total hoax Like Micheal Bellisslies and his fake anti gun book ARMING AMERICA he lost his Bancroft Prize the Money and his Career and his job as well
