Global Warming Study Cancelled Because of ‘Unprecedented’ Ice

DELINGPOLE: Ship of Fools III – Global Warming Study Cancelled Because of ‘Unprecedented’ Ice

A global warming research study in Canada has been cancelled because of “unprecedented” thick summer ice.

Naturally, the scientist in charge has blamed it on ‘climate change.’

According to Vice:

 

The study, entitled BaySys, is a $17-million four-year-long program headed by the University of Manitoba. It was planning to conduct the third leg of its research by sending 40 scientists from five Canadian universities out into the Bay on the Canadian Research Icebreaker CCGS Amundsen to study “contributions of climate change and regulation on the Hudson Bay system.”

But it had to be cancelled because the scientists’ icebreaker was required by the Canadian Coast Guard for a rather more urgent purpose – rescuing fishing boats and supply ships which had got stuck in the “unprecedented ice conditions”.

“It became clear to me very quickly that these weren’t just heavy ice conditions, these were unprecedented ice conditions,” Dr. David Barber, the lead scientist on the study, told VICE. “We were finding thick multi-year sea ice floes which on level ice were five metres thick… it was much, much thicker and much, much heavier than anything you would expect at that latitude and at that time of year.”

Clearly not one to let a crisis go to waste, Barber seized the opportunity to perform the usual alarmist clown dance for the media, explaining why this incident definitely shows that global warming is a major problem and deserving of our urgent attention.

He told Vice:

“It was clear it was from the Arctic, I just needed to be among the ice to see it,” said Dr. Barber. “What was also clear to me was that climate change has caused this event to happen.”

[Don’t you just love that “I just needed to be among the ice”? I think what he’s trying in his subtle way to tell us is: “Not all superheroes wear capes”]

Warming to his theme, he told Global News:

“This is climate change fully in action – affecting our ability to make use of marine resources and transport things.”

and

“This is a wake-up call for all of us in the country.”

Of course it is. Now Barber has the perfect excuse to share his war stories with all the other global warming experts who have had their research expeditions/publicity stunts stymied by unseasonal bouts of global warming.

There was the Ship of Fools expedition in which an Australian climate researcher called Chris Turkey had to call an expedition to the melting Antarctic after his ship got stuck in the ice.

The Caitlin Expedition – supported by the Prince of Wales – in which Pen Haddow and his team had to abandon their trip to the North Pole because it was colder than they’d expected.

Most recently there was Ship of Fools II, in which a global warming research voyage by David Hempleman Adams had to be curtailed because of unexpected ice.

What on earth can Mother Gaia be trying to tell them?

Possibly the same message she’s trying to send out to the Greenies in California with this unexpected fall of white global warming.

A rare winter-like storm brought more snow to the Sierra Nevada on Monday, giving skiers the opportunity to enjoy the slopes as summer gets underway.

At Squaw Valley, the storm dropped four inches of snow at the upper elevations and two inches at the base, delighting skiers and snowboarders who will be on the slopes past the Fourth of July for a first time in history.

“It’s definitely unique,” Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows resort spokesman Sam Kieckhefer said. “We are seeing bathing suits and costumes on the slopes. The skiing has definitely been extremely festive.”

Apparently, she didn’t get the famous memo from the Independent a few years back.

What amazes me most is the people on the left that want to line up to take it up the ass on this scam

They really don't or they would be changing their lives without the govt forcing them to do it.   No different than paying more taxes than you owe.  Its a sickening connection to govt.  If the world was really in the dire trouble it was people wouldn't bitch about climate change then hope on their sled for a 200 mile ride.

Never understood why scientist who are pro global warming would run internal combustion engine machine that breaks up a delicate ice pack just to study the shrinking ice pack...  that is equivalent of killing the last black rhino to study how to save the last black rhino.

Hey stupids....the ice shouldn't have been floating where it was...it should have still been frozen in place in the Arctic.  

Read the article again

:lmao:

 

Which part of the ice is much thicker at that latitude for that time of yr didnt you understand?

Oh I get it but you obviously don't.  It means the exact opposite of what you think it means FFS.

:lmao:

There shouldn't be massive ice floes of multiyear arctic ice there.  They are there because they broke up in the high arctic and floated down to a lower latitude like icebergs.

Ice shelves break all the time.

Nothing says you're a mouthbreathing stupid fucker like someone who denies global warming is being accelerated by human activity.  One has to be dumber than a femce post to be a denier and look - you even have a Flat Earther in your corner :lmao:

And there were crocodiles at the noth pole, wonder how much ice was around back then :lmao: 

a lot less than when Wisconsin was under 100feet of ice and the weight of the advancing glacier gouged out all the Great Lakes basins. that was all caused by Freed and Barney eating to many brontosaurs burgers and farting causing climate change. they then had to move to  south America and from there I lost track of the documentary
