Media Falsely Grouse That ‘Climate Change’ Melted Venezuela’s ‘Last Glacier’
by John Robson, Ph.D. 11 hours ago
Did you know that Venezuela’s last glacier was just demoted to an icefield? Or that this tropical, nearly equatorial, nation even had glaciers? [emphasis, links added]
Well, it was and it did.
And a reader asked us how to answer an alarmist claim that the demotion proves there’s a man-made global heating crisis, which of course is being bleated in unison by the herd of independent media minds around the world, none of whom of course hitherto knew or cared that said glacier even existed until it afforded this week’s opportunity to bang the climate apocalypse drum.
To which we said, as we usually do, check how long it’s been melting, because as a rule, the shrinking of glaciers demonstrates not that man is warming the planet but that the planet is warming man.
