Antarctic Peninsula Greening Linked to Subglacial Heat, Not Climate Change
by James Edward Kamis, guest post  Oct 23, 2024 in Bipolar, Geology, News and Opinion, Science Reading 

A recently released research study concluded that several small, scattered areas in the northern portion of the Antarctic Peninsula have lost all their glacial ice from 1986 through 2021.

This ice loss exposed subglacial rock and soil layers, providing an environment where green vegetation has begun to grow (Figure 1 below) (see here and here).


Based on this data, the study’s authors concluded that this melting and greening process is further evidence of climate change negatively impacting many aspects of the planet.

However, the study’s authors failed to incorporate significant amounts of relevant atmospheric and geological information into their analysis.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

It really makes no difference why.

What is important is that more green is good for the world.

There is an effin' VOLCANO under that ice!  We've known that for a long time.

Dozens.

That's right. And they act like we don't know that.

Just like when the Arctic Sea Ice diminished (submarine volcanism), only this is just subglacial, and may just be high heat flow from rising magma.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
