Professor Robert Correll, chairman of the Arctic Climate Impact
Assessment

http://www.acia.uaf.edu/

said that newly invented ice penetrating radar showed that the melt
water was pouring through to the bottom of the glacier creating a melt
water lake 500 metres deep causing the glacier "to float on land.
"These melt water rivers are lubricating the glacier, like applying
oil to a surface and causing it to slide into the sea. It is causing a
massive acceleration which could be catastrophic."

Correll stated that one particular glacier puts enough fresh water
into the sea in one day to provide drinking water for a city the size
of New York for a year.

Correll believes that the estimates of a 20 to 60 centimeter sea level
rise this century from the IPCC report in February had been
"conservative" and feels that it would be at the upper end of this
range at a minimum. Some scientists fear that number could be 2 metres
(200 centimeters), which would obviously have catastrophic effects for
European and U.S. coastlines.

Howash. This has all happened before and is part of a very large cycle.

Take your man-made global warming on a long hike.

To late DxAce, Al Gore turned man made global warming into a religion.

Had an interesting discussion with some friends Friday nite about Gore
winning the Nobel prize. I'm still not sure what he won for. My
friend was contending that he increased awareness of global warming -
my question was - so has the hole in the ozone gotten smaller - are
emissions down by any noticiable percentage.?? And I followed with "
if we were going to award the ENVIRONMENTALIST OF THE YEAR to
someone, I'm sure there are others out there more deserving. He
wanted to know who I had in mind - and was blaming my dislike on Gore
as a REPUBLICAN/DEMOCRAT issue. Trouble is: I do know someone who has
done more to promote environmental health than Gore ever will be able
to do. He finally told me he was bored by the discussion. But I'm
still wondering why GORE got the award. Maybe someone can help me
with that?:?

Simple. Liberal man of the year.
