In high school, the doomsday
scenarios regarding global warming were endless. Back in 2007, the
climate change cult said the Arctic Ice Cap would vanish. It didn’t.
When 2013 hit, it gained about 530,000 square miles of ice. Still, the
con is on with the Green Left, who claims they were on the verge of
total destruction.
In the 1970s, global cooling and North American re-glaciation would
imperil humanity. They were wrong then, and they’re wrong now. The Green
Movement has been exposed as a backdoor communist push, spearheaded by
the wealthy and the elites to further screw over working Americans via
intentional economic sabotage. These folks can soak up the costs, and a
great many love to hobnob at these exclusive global warming retreats,
which also gives them an opportunity to fire up those private jets.
Well,
the doomsday global warming cult’s agenda of making us poorer to
protect us against something that doesn’t exist took another body blow
this week. Antarctica gained a ton of ice (via KTVU):
A
study published this week in Science China Earth Sciences finds that
the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) experienced a record-breaking mass gain
between 2021 and 2023, largely due to anomalous increases in
precipitation. The rebound is especially significant in East Antarctica,
where four major glacier basins had previously shown signs of
destabilization.

Big picture view: Researchers from
Tongji University and other institutions analyzed satellite gravimetry
data from the GRACE and GRACE-FO missions, which measure variations in
Earth’s gravity to detect changes in ice mass.
They found that
between 2011 and 2020, the AIS was losing ice at a rate of 142 gigatons
per year. But between 2021 and 2023, the trend reversed, with the ice
sheet gaining approximately 108 gigatons per year — a historic
turnaround.
[…]
The most notable gains were in East
Antarctica’s Wilkes Land and Queen Mary Land region, including the
Totten, Denman, Moscow University, and Vincennes Bay glacier basins.
These glaciers had been losing mass at an accelerating rate from 2011 to
2020 — driven by surface melting and faster ice discharge into the
ocean — but now appear to have partially recovered.
Scientists
warn, however, that this shift doesn’t mean the climate crisis is over.
The gains were linked to unusual precipitation patterns, which may be
temporary.
The last part kills me: it’s only temporary. Yeah, that is what we
have been saying for years. It’s cyclical. It’s natural. We’ve never
been more industrialized as a civilization, and the ‘ice is melting’
narrative from said economic activity caused Antarctica to gain ice.
