Thule Hunter

What I can not believe is that it is already getting cold in August. I have a bad feeling about this to.

 

70 Degrees West

We want to begin today by thanking all of our followers who have been with us from the beginning. It is with your encouragement, faith, and continued interest in our project that keeps us heading south along the 70 degrees west longitude. To our new fans, you give us inspiration and the reminder that people are listening, and these stories need to be shared.

After two months in the arctic circle, months of editing still photographs and video footage, we are pleased to release our Greenland trailer, THULE HUNTER. Stay tuned for the Greenland documentary short in the coming months!

‘Skeptical Science’ Says Concerns About Dangerous Global Warming are Unimportant

 

 

English: "Stop Global Warming And Save Th...

 

Yes they are skeptical alright, and not very smart either. Global Warming is not a myth, it’s happening. Here are some examples: 2009 I saw an Aurora in the sky, with purple, blue, and red colors. I had no way to get that shot because there was no place to stop, but last year there was another one with yellow and orange colors. We are not supposed to have them here. How about the fact that Saturn was aligned with the North star for 2 1/2 weeks, and I did get a shot of that. The rivers and streams still dry with all the rain we had, leaves on trees still white, or brown because there dying. Three years in a row we went right into summer, without spring, and this year it has been cold right up to June, and had four cold days in July. I can go on but there is so much more…

 

 

 

 

Watts Up With That?

Guest essay by Brandon Shollenberger

We can pack up our bags and go home.  The global warming debate is, except maybe as an academic curiosity.  I know this to be true because Skeptical Science says so.  And if they say so, it must be true.

Don’t believe me?  I understand.  It’s hard to believe.  But it’s true.  You may remember a post I wrote a couple days ago.  In it, I called Skeptical Science dishonest for repeatedly promoting a tweet from (not quite) Barack Obama that said:

Ninety-seven percent of scientists agree: #climate change is real, man-made and dangerous. Read more: http://OFA.BO/gJsdFp

As Cook et al’s study said absolutely nothing about whether or not climate change is dangerous.  Barry Woods followed up on this point at Skeptical Science in a few comments.  That’s when the Skeptical Science crowd said concerns about dangerous global warming are unimportant.

The WUWT Hot Sheet for Wednesday July 31st, 2013

This is a radar animation image of lake effect...

Now this a really big change. Here in NY we had 4 days of cold weather, where it was 68 degrees at night and 63 degrees by morning

Shocker: Global Warming Kneejerker Admits It

You can go wading in the lake at the North Pole – Boing Boing

At Climate Central, Andrew Freedman provides some really fascinating context that illustrates the changing nature of, well, nature … and draws a big, heavy underline on how difficult it can be to make assumptions about what is and what isn’t an effect of climate change. Arctic sea ice is melting in concert with rising global average temperatures, but (contrary to the knee-jerk assumption I made about this story) the lake at the North Pole may or may not have anything to do with that.

What? Global warming true believers making knee-jerk assumptions? Perish the thought.

Kudos for owning up, though.   http://www.dailypundit.com/?p=74441

Global warming- the earth is like an engine

Earth's Core

The Earth is like and engine, and if you drop something in the engine it will stop right. This will also explain where we get our resources from and how far down they have to dig to get these resources.  So think about this when we are actually digging into the Earth, or cutting the trees down. One day that nail will get stuck and we wont be able to fix it. I also came up with a saying that, “If you cut yourself you put a Band- Aid on it, if you slice yourself you get stitches, well if we do this to the Earth, we cannot put a Band-Aid on it or stitch it up”, so think about this. I’ve been wanting to talk about this topic for a while now and I had to do a lot of research on it in order to start it. The reason why I want to blog this topic is because I want people to see what the earth is actually made out of, and why we are causing Global Warming and what is causing it. The Earth actually has four cores and the first core has actually two parts to it. So you can see from the picture exactly what the core looks like and this will explain where and how far we have to dig down to get our resources. I will define the first part of the core and some definitions for you. the rest would be a very long topic so I will only do the first core and link the rest, where everyone can see it. This is why we are killing the Earth, along with many other reasons, but we all what they are.
So the first layer of Earth is actually consists of the Crust, Granite, Basaltic Rock, and the Ocean.This is called the Lithosphere Layer, it is very rigid, and is (80 km down or 50 miles) to be exact. This layer is hard, not flexible. The Crust is a hard surface made of igneous and Metamorphic rock. Now this first layer is used for buildings and monuments. Granite is a very hard Igneous rock, with Quartz, Orthoclase and Microcline. Granite which is a hard Igneous rock with Quartz, Orthoclase and Microcline. Then we have Basaltic rock which is either dark gray/ black dense, fine-grained Igneous rock consisting of  Plagioclase, Augile, and sometimes Magnetite. The Lithosphere is generated by radioactive heating of the interior core, and is believed to cause lateral movement of the plates. It shifts at a rate of several inches per year, and it is a Rigid and Rocky layer. The Igneous is formed by solidification of Magma and the Metamorphic rock produced by Metamorphism. Quartz is a mineral consisting of silicone dioxide, colorless, transparent hexagon or Crystalline masses. Orthoclase is Monocline mineral of feldspar group, and consists of Silicate of Potassium, Aluminum and Plagioclase, a Tri-clinic feldspar having Calcium, Sodium. Augite usually black or dark green mineral consists of rocks found in Igneous, Aluminous Pyroxene, and the Magnetite is important for Iron Ore. It is usually black isometric mineral of Spinal Groups, and is an oxide of Iron. Triclinic is a system of Crystallization by three unequal Axes intersecting at Oblique angles, which means they are not parallel, having no right angle and not perpendicular to each other. Aluminous Pyroxene is a Silicate Mineral with Calcium Magnesium iron rich, and Spinel is a mineral composed of Magnesium Aluminum Oxide, colors from Blood Red to Blue, Green, Brown and colorless, found in igneous rocks lie Granite, Metamorphic Limestone deposits, Minerals of Magnesium, Iron, Zinc or Manganese with a combo of Aluminum, Chromium or Iron. Supposedly this was used in early 20th Century for imitation of Gemstones. Then of course there is the Ocean which covers nearly 70% of the Earth’s surface divided into major oceans and smaller seas.

Now, if you look at the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Core you can see what it is made of, and like they say. A picture is worth a thousand words. What I mean by that is if you look at the picture you can kind of see how far down they have to go for all our resources we use.

I did forget to mention that the 1st core is 80 km (50 miles down), 2nd Core is 700km (430 miles down) 3rd core 2885 km (1793 miles down) and 4th core is 6371km (3960 miles down)

This is why we need to stop drilling, digging and cutting so much, because there will not be anything left one day. It is time we put our heads together and come up with a plan.

The Truth Be Heard

Now here is another smart person along with a few more I would mention

I have to mention a video I wish I could find it was done on National Geographic for a kids contest on who could do the best video on global warming and this little girl was 5 yrs. old who won the contest. She made a cartoon video of a women sitting on a park bench drinking a bottle of water and when she was done she chucked the bottle to the garbage can and missed it, and then she showed how the bottle ended up in the water and cycled it’s way around the world 5 times before it came back to where it started from and lo and behold, who picked the bottle up, was a Seagull, and he put it in the garbage can. I really wish I saved that video, it would have been worth a 1000 words

Watts Up With That?

By STEVE GOREHAM

In President Obama’s remarks to the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, he stated, “… My plan will continue to reduce the carbon pollution that is heating our planet — because climate change is not a hoax. More droughts and floods and wildfires are not a joke. They’re a threat to our children’s future. And in this election you can do something about it.”

The president’s remarks support the ideology of climatism — the belief that manmade greenhouse gases are destroying Earth’s climate.

Who is Scared of Warmth and Moisture?

English: Global warming comes to Finchampstead...

Dude sorry to ruin your day but this is man-made Global warming and you should be scared

Watts Up With That?

By Viv Forbes

A scheming cabal of green bureaucrats, academics and corporate speculators is trying to scare us into a mess of energy taxes, subsidies and rationing in order to combat what they call “catastrophic man-made global warming”.

Climate alarmists speculate that if the level of harmless carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is doubled (which may or may not happen in a century or so), world temperature may be one or two degrees warmer than it would have otherwise been.

Global warming- Myth Or Truth

The Discovery of Global Warming

It is not a myth, it is a fact

OK, it is time I finished this article, because we are seriously in trouble. So in the last 4-5 Years we have had major changes in weather. I don’t know if anyone has been paying attention. But like the fact that we have very little snow which is needed to kill off the old and bring in the new and this why we have been invaded by ants, and stink bugs and the ticks were high this year to. We have had very little rain up until this year, and as much as we have had the streams, rivers and lakes and more… are still losing water or are dried up. Within this time frame NY has never had Tornadoes, and now we are getting more than our fair share of Tornadoes now. We even had a few Earthquakes to at the rate of 7.5 – 8 on the Richter scale but these happened like 4-8 years ago. We have barely had Spring for the last for years and we had our heat on until June of this year and even a couple of summers we have missed to. but now we are getting down in the 40’s at night and even getting cold by the day.

The Antarctic and Arctic Ocean are melting fast, Animals are trying to find food, and a home to live because of the changes. If the Ice caps melt you do know that NYC will be underwater right. And because I said this is my biggest article, I have some pictures I will post later, but I wanted to mention that 2 times in 2 years I have seen an Aurora color in the in the sky. I thought that only happens in North Pole, but apparently not. The first one had some colors in it but couldn’t get a good spot to stop and get the photo, but I did get the second one that I just saw this week. Another odd thing about 3 months I noticed something odd and it had been aligned with the North Star for 2 weeks straight in the same spot every night and I did get a shot of what turned to be Saturn aligned with the North Star. More hurricanes than ever before out of  nowhere. Please people we really need to try to fix this because if we don’t we will have nothing. We can do our part in this if we really want to, and if not think about your kids. Trees are peeling like bananas because they don’t have enough water. The deer are eating out of garbage cans and coming in to Rural and Urban areas to find food. A squirrel stole my stuffing out of my chair to make his nest. This can not be anymore explanatory than this, and I can go on but it would take a lot of time.

I just wanted to give you an idea of what is happening. Also when you through your garbage on the ground it does have an impact on the environment so think about that next time someone throws their garbage on the ground. I am also going to post a video I want you see to, made by a child in a contest on National Geographic. On that note I will end this here and hope I have said enough. Oh one more thing I need to mention, is that we are cutting way to many trees down,they are a huge impact on our planet, because not only do they protect the earth from flooding, they also protect the plants and animals to and they are 99% of our Oxygen we breathe. I saw a saying a child said, and it goes like this, “Trees are like our children, we take care of our children, so take care of our trees.” (Unknown)

Watts Up With That?

PRESS RELEASE – U.S. Temperature trends show a spurious doubling due to NOAA station siting problems and post measurement adjustments.

Chico, CA July 29th, 2012 – 12 PM PDT – FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

A comparison and summary of trends is shown from the paper. Acceptably placed thermometers away from common urban influences read much cooler nationwide:

A reanalysis of U.S. surface station temperatures has been performed using the recently WMO-approved Siting Classification System devised by METEO-France’s Michel Leroy. The new siting classification more accurately characterizes the quality of the location in terms of monitoring long-term spatially representative surface temperature trends. The new analysis demonstrates that reported 1979-2008 U.S. temperature trends are spuriously doubled, with 92% of that over-estimation resulting from erroneous NOAA adjustments of well-sited stations upward. The paper is the first to use the updated siting system which addresses USHCN siting issues and data adjustments.
