Greenland’s Melting Glaciers Is Totally Terrifying Or Something

Remember the old saying about “liberalism being a mental disease”? What about for the Cult Of Climastrology? It seems that their mental disease is self imposed, as they have constant mental breakdowns over a minuscule bit of warming, just a shade over 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit over a 165 year period of time, warming that is consistent with a low level Holocene warm period. Here we have Damon Beres at the Huffington Post

Drone Footage Of Greenland’s Melting Ice Sheet Is Stunning, Terrifying[1]
It’s beautiful and depressing, all at once.

Terrifying! Depressing! In fact, the rate of retreat[2], 164 feet per year, is the same as back during the 1930’s, when CO2 was well below the “safe” level of 350ppm. Some, let’s be honest, are retreating faster. Which in no way proves anthropogenic causation. Just warming/melting. Let’s not forget that Vikings made a pretty good living in the nearby island of Iceland, farming and stuff in a green paradise during the Medieval Warm Period, and were wiped out during the Little Ice Age. If we go back over 100,000 years, the temperatures[3] in Greenland are postulated to be 14F higher than today. Were cavemen driving fossil fueled SUVs?

Climate change is one of the biggest problems facing humanity, but it’s not always the easiest to visualize. A dreadfully skinny polar bear[4] is a powerful symbol that might shock you in the moment, though it’s hard to understand what it might say about our changing planet overall.

The New York Times on Tuesday presented an innovative new approach[5]: Footage shot via drone that shows the melting Greenland ice sheet.

So, they took a fossil fueled trip to Greenland, and then a fossil fueled trip to areas of Greenland, to obtain these drone shots, which are 100% anecdotal? Awesome.

This is all about the Narrative, which seems to be turning Warmists into complete mental messes. It’s no wonder there are so many stories and studies linking ‘climate change’ with mental health: Warmists are bat guano insane, and they’ve done it to themselves.

It is incredible video, though. It took a long time to write this post because I watched it.
