Gosh, if they were a real ice-coring drill team, and they studied the CO2 levels in previous epochs, they would learn that it doesnt matter how much CO2 is in the air, the oceans would act as a sink, absorb it all, (and some would freeze, leaving us a trail of info to know this) and we dont have to worry about spiking greenhouse gasses.But unfortunately, seems their team is funded by the liberal media. Oh well.
My own personal belief is that harm has been done to our earth because we have removed so much oil from the ground. From my limited understanding of how a transformer works, oil acts as an insulator. In the “Big” picture how do we know that by removing so much oil it hasn’t affected the temperature of the earth? With less oil in the ground how does it affect the way our sun heats our earth? Has oil removal affected changes on how it insulates us from earth’s core? I don’t know, and I’m clearly not a scientist, but it seems like common sense that it has to have made a difference.
I’m not a climate change denier. But I also have a friend who’s a scientist. He says to get funding he constantly has to start with at least a partial conclusion where climate change is concerned and work up hill to dismiss it instead of the other way around. I’m being a bit facetious but something like: “Given human-caused environmental impact, I am setting out to prove how ancient sloths evolved to have an extra vertebrae”. Add into this that whoever is reporting the news is adding their own spin, now I take all “scientists say…” headlines with a grain of salt.
I knew a guy who said the coldest job he ever had was ice core-sampling. The helicopter would land on remote ice floes and you did not dare shut down the motor or get too far away, so you were always working in freezing wind.
Must also be one of the politicians who just approved the second major Russian-EU oil and gas pipeline along with saying that the Russian threat to the Ukraine is only bluffing.

So anything an oil company says is a lie but anything a government employee says is true?

I’ll believe Big Oil over Big Pharma. At least Big Oil doesn’t want to give me a jab…(maybe a suppository, but not a jab).

Exxon and Mobil have been the same company since 1999, so apparently Professor Knülklhedd is double-dipping his sponsors …..

We can always use a fresh opinion. It helps us to sharpen our own thinking.
What is Prof. Knüklhedd’s nationality and what language is his native tongue? (He seems kinda half-French, half-Danish….)

And remember, Antarctica is not melting, only West Antarctica is, and its melting precisely where the 91 known active underwater volcanoes are.
