Antarctica Ice Sheet is Thickening

Global climatists are trying to explain a new curveball in their global warming thesis, in which the polar ice caps are going to melt and cause chaos. The problem is that in Antarctica, the opposite effect is occurring - the ice sheet is actually thickening.

And surely enough, global warming theorists have an explanation:
"The changes in the ice look like those expected for a warming world," said glaciologist Richard Alley at Pennsylvania State University. "The new result in no way disproves global warming; if anything, the new result supports global warming."

It's not too hard to find global warming theorists for a good reason - scientists who oppose the theory of manmade global warming are often fired from their jobs.

The bottom line is that scientists have no more clue today about what causes global climate change than they did 10,000 years ago - despite what the looney Left might say.
