Bering Sea Ice Extent Breaks Records
The Arctic has crossed the threshold from winter into spring. Scientists at the National Snow and Ice Data Center announced last week that Arctic sea ice reached its maximum extent on March 18 and is slowly beginning its summer retreat.

More cute ****! NSIDC Press Room: Thawing permafrost 50 million years ago led to global warm events
yep. So are you denying that carbon dioxide has anything to do with warming? Or what?
How do human CO2 emissions compare to natural CO2 emissions?Before the industrial revolution, the CO2 content in the air remained quite steady for thousands of years. Natural CO2 is not static, however. It is generated by natural processes, and absorbed by others.
As you can see in Figure 1, natural land and ocean carbon remains roughly in balance and have done so for a long time – and we know this because we can measure historic levels of CO2 in the atmosphere both directly (in ice cores) and indirectly (through proxies).
Figure 1: Global carbon cycle. Numbers represent flux of carbon dioxide in gigatons (Source: Figure 7.3, IPCC AR4).
But consider what happens when more CO2 is released from outside of the natural carbon cycle – by burning fossil fuels. Although our output of 29 gigatons of CO2 is tiny compared to the 750 gigatons moving through the carbon cycle each year, it adds up because the land and ocean cannot absorb all of the extra CO2. About 40% of this additional CO2 is absorbed. The rest remains in the atmosphere, and as a consequence, atmospheric CO2 is at its highest level in 15 to 20 million years (Tripati 2009). (A natural change of 100ppm normally takes 5,000 to 20,000 years. The recent increase of 100ppm has taken just 120 years).
Human CO2 emissions upset the natural balance of the carbon cycle. Man-made CO2 in the atmosphere has increased by a third since the pre-industrial era, creating an artificial forcing of global temperatures which is warming the planet. While fossil-fuel derived CO2 is a very small component of the global carbon cycle, the extra CO2 is cumulative because the natural carbon exchange cannot absorb all the additional CO2.
Ah ****in bullshyte it does.EVERYTHING you are bringing up right now all hinges on IPCC bull**** so either **** or get the **** off the pot.
Scroll back and hit a link.Show the peer reviews quantifying everything you are trying to say is quantifiable and you'll get a nod of approval from me.
I don't think you did. Or else you didn't click on the one I referred to.I did. You never read what you posted which BTW wasn't peer reviews. It was a blog.
Post some peer reviews. Come on Les, you can do it..... or can you?
I have no idea what a perr review is.I don't think you did. Or else you didn't click on the one I referred to.
Do you even know what the peer review process is? Or what perr review means?
It's a typographical error, moron.I have no idea what a perr review is.
Is it a review system comparable to real science? Nope
"All the responsible people are aware of this weakness in the fourth
assessment. All are aware of the mistakes made," he said. "If it had not been
the focus of so much public opinion, we would have said 'we will do better next
time'. It is clear now that working group II has to be restructured."
What lead to this statement Tonington?
