On December 13 & 14, 2009, professor, prophet, and soothsayer Al Gore predicted the North Polar Ice Cap could be completely ice free within the next five to seven years.

Gore made his prediction at COP15 Copenhagen which ran from Dec 7 – Dec 18, 2009, where he repeatedly referenced “state-of-the-art” computer modeling to suggest that the north polar ice cap may lose all of its ice by 2014.

“Some of the models suggest that there is a 75 percent chance that the entire north polar ice cap, during some of the summer months, could be completely ice-free within the next five to seven years,” Gore claimed.

“Join me in asking president Obama and the US Senate to set a deadline of 22 April for final action in the US Senate,” he said. “I do not believe we can wait till next November or December.”

I just saw something the other day about the polar ice caps will melt and 400 million people will be flooded.

Back in November Al Gore and Climate Reality Leaders delivered over 1,600 presentations in communities around the world for 24 Hours of Reality: Truth in Action.  Apparently they don't mind continuing to lie to people.  As long as they have an audience who will listen, they will carry on.

I post from a lot of blogs and I always excerpt from  them. So to see a Blog Pimp, look in the mirror. It ain't me.

Ice displaces it's own mass of water.  If every cubic meter of Arctic Ocean ice melted in an instant, ocean levels would not rise a single millimeter.

A prerequisite of a blog pimp is that he owns the blog, linking thereto rather than excerpting, in order to drive up hits, 'pimping' his blog to make money.

If it is the message more than the money, an author would be happy to excerpt, or even post the whole article.

But at least AlGore got it right about the polar bears being extincted, right? 333cleo

Ice displaces it's (sic) own mass of water.  If every cubic meter of Arctic Ocean ice melted in an instant, ocean levels would not rise a single millimeter.

Ninety percent of the earth's ice is around the South Pole, where it sits high above the ocean.
A great deal of ice also sits atop the world's mountain ranges where it does not displace its own mass of water.

And the Antarctic polar cap is growing in size.
