ARCTIC SEA TO BE ICE FREE NEXT SUMMER

Don't let this scare you. This article (click here) makes it seem that this has not happened in recent history. Not true. Journals of explorers working for the Hudson's Bay Company in 1789 noted with surprise that the Arctic Sea was still frozen in July. This seemed unusual to them since earlier explorers found it to be ice free most of the year. Native legends also spoke of a passage by water through the area North of present day Canada. Part of what these explorers were looking for was the fabled "Northwest Passage'. Was it a myth? No, indeedy. Remember, as presented elsewhere on this blogsite, that the Little Ice Age began around 1600-1700, peaking in the late 1800s. Previously that sea was not frozen for most of the year. What about the fear that certain animals are now endangered by the melting ice? Five hundred years ago North America was still in the grip of the Medieval Warm Period. The Arctic Sea was ice free then. So...how did the animals survive that? If Polar Bears were around 10,000 years ago they must be pretty durable and pretty adaptable to have survived those changes. More Green Hysteria! Most of these folks don't believe in God so think they must take the place of God. Also, they use faulty science to gain your support. Instead of an "Inconvenient Truth" if they find an "Inconvenient Fact" they simply ignore it. Where is Joe Friday when we really need him? "Just the facts, sir. Just the facts."
