Greenland Ice Melting – AGAIN!

-
Roanoke Times, 7-4-11, Pg 3: Warm seawater melts ice from below while global warming melts it from above and the polar ice is melting faster than had been expected,  says Yianjun Yin and associates of the Univ. of Arizona
(And as Gore and his AGW-Alarmists have repeatedly told you: the warm air and the warm water is your fault!)
-
However, Yin forgot to mention that:
The Arctic has been relatively free of summer ice in the past and it appears that will happen again. Just 3,000 years ago Greenland was 3 degrees C warmer than it is now. Clearly the satellite images from that period would have shown the Northwest Passage far different than it is today!

Apparently Yin also hasn’t been looking at the data that describes the massive volcanic structures below Greenland and much of the Arctic ice near there.
Perhaps he could visit Wikipedia for some great photos and descriptions of underwater and under-ice fumaroles:

Since Yin is quite close to Yellowstone, perhaps he could visit Glacier National Park and reflect on how Old Faithful and thousands of fumaroles melted those glaciers from the bottom while the warm air of the Medieval Warm Period melted them from the top.  They sure are gone and apparently it's NOT our fault!  Apparently Mother Nature has done this many times and in many places before and she has a way of repeating earth’s cycles.

Isn’t it time to stop looking for ways to support Gore and his Alarmist Associates and just relate today’s observations to the earth’s history? Of course you can’t get government taxpayer grant money for doing that!  Don’t they cover this material in 8th Grade Earth Science classes? Apparently they’re too busy hyping Gore’s Alarmist Inconvenient Untruths and don’t have the time or motivation to teach students about the natural order and history of the earth.
If you really want to worry about earth’s climate variations, worry about the next “Little Ice Age” and the impacts that will have on all of earth’s creatures and plants.
