Subject: Wilkins Ice Shelf: More Barefaced Lies From Alarmists



27 Mar 2008

From the Great North to the great south, Antarctica, the media has been
making a big deal of the potential calving of the Wilkins Ice Shelf. It
is cited as yet another example that global warming is happening and we're
all going to die unless we stop driving, shut down all the utilities and
manufacturing plants in America, begin to live in tents and cook our
meals over an open fire.



A fact that is inconveniently ignored by the media is that the vast
majority of Antarctica is in a decades-long cold spell. It has been
cooling since around 1979. Indeed, the majority of Antarctic and the
Southern Ocean is accumulating ice, not losing it. So, if the Wilkins
Ice Shelf should experience any loss, it would run counter to the trend
there.



Joseph D'Aleo, executive director of the International Climate and
Environmental Change Assessment Project, points out that, "In reality,
the Wilkins Ice Shelf and all the former shelves that collapsed are
small and most near the Antarctic peninsula which sticks well out from
Antarctica into the currents and winds of the South Atlantic." It lies
over a tectonically active region with surface and subsurface active
volcanic activity. If Wilkins breaks up, it will eventually do what
other ice masses do. It will refreeze.



The media, besotted and enthralled by the global warming lies, continues
to inaccurately report the truth of events like the Wilkins shelf
because they just don't care about the truth any more. They, like their
fellow Greens, have an agenda and if that means telling big fat lies by
leaving out key elements of a story, that's okay by them.
