mainstream media is ignoring the melting arctic ice situation and it's shocking
and i talked to about it and again this is this was but i wouldn't
god bless them
and you know i don't use that term wallis
forest bradford david back and show member various duly pointed out sent me
a ton of great information about this and pointed out but this is not being
covered by mainstream media and i'm wondering if it's because it's not
really uh... italian ratings driver
or again whether
that mainstream media in this incredible fear of being perceived as a liberal for
reporting faq
is choosing not to report on the story
you're asking me
i don't know they're there
i mean i i feel like there
other issues at hand right now i mean it was talking about our country right i
mean what's what's coverage like in other countries i don't know i mean
were pretty preoccupied here at the moment with their status because that
does because american media is dropping the ball on the melting arctic ice
doesn't mean that
around the world media's dropping the ball bright by can speak to the rest of
the world but i mean i will say that often there are distractions here in
their issues there
being talked about the most important because they have higher ratings well
the situation in the arctic and everywhere like such as is as follows
by uh... within a decade we could see summer days that are completely ice free
according to a british scientist doctor seymour waxing at the university college
london center
for polar observation and modeling told bbc radio that early satellite data
suggest that arctic ice is actually melting at a rate even faster than
scientists had previously
war let's put up the satellite images thandi compilation image
this is a combination of data from masses i sat
as well as pro preliminary results from european space agency satellite cry of
sat too
were finding a fifty percent in greater rate of life loss than in past estimates
now if you look at this
the orange line that you can see around here and hopefully you can see that
that was the median ice coverage from nineteen seventy nine to two thousand as
you can see drastically reduced ending that looks to me was like a thirty-year
or even close to thirty five forty percent reduction in the median ice
coverage there
and in his head tube two points of view on that some will say okay
we can't deny that this is what it looks like right now
we reject that changes over a thirty-year period
are even
valuable long-term we're talking about the earth being around for a really
really really long time assuming you're not one of those people who thinks it's
only six thousand years
therefore
this we we just don't know if this equivalent changes ever happened in any
other thirty-year period maybe this is normal
rate army uh... there are many scientists who claimed that
it is almost impossible to know if the weather patterns were experiencing are
normal
as are part of the or non eleven flow in the stars melting is also uh... normal
occurrence uh... as if you go in the opposite direction at some point to what
we do know however that counteracts that and it's pretty significant is another
in a lot of different stuff including the fact that
we we can measure how long a lot of the space has been frozen and some of it
would be indicative of the fact that it's not really that common okay that's
number one and number two that work very very much aware
of the immediate effects that significant ice not would have
particularly through the d brides
in the levels of water in different places around the world and what effect
that would have because of where cities are located
because of work at a record revoking added so on
and so forth so again nasa stomp tom wagner saying specific melting events
could be part of natural variation we have abundant evidence that greenland is
also losing eyes probably be club because of global warming and it is
significantly contributing to sea level rise which would be a huge problem
yesterday huge problem for him
coastal communities all over the world by the way as the ice melts what's shell
doing shell is trying to do more drilling in the arctic they're saying
hey
we gain access some of uh... because of the ice not yet we have access to more
areas now let's just start uh... getting more that all about
which of course
that the consumption in drilling for fossil fuels is spoke big part of the
problem that we're having
but of course they're gonna capitalism
