Officials at Glacier National Park (GNP) have begun quietly removing and altering signs and government literature which told visitors that the Park’s glaciers were all expected to disappear by either 2020 or 2030. In recent years the National Park Service prominently featured brochures, signs and films which boldly proclaimed that all glaciers at GNP were melting away rapidly. But now officials at GNP seem to be scrambling to hide or replace their previous hysterical claims while avoiding any notice to the public that the claims were inaccurate.
Last year the Park Service quietly removed its two large steel trash cans at the Many Glacier Hotel which depicted “before and after” engravings of the Grinnell Glacier in 1910 and 2009. The steel carvings indicated that the Glacier had shrunk significantly between the two dates. But a viral video published on Wattsupwiththat.com showed that the Grinnell Glacier appears to be slightly larger than in 2009.

Yep I saw this a few days ago. It is just one more prediction of a 10 year doom scenario they make that never comes true. No worry they just reset the clock to another 10 years for their newer better bigger we are all doomed B.S...
NASA says that CO2 is a coolant not a warming gas. One part of NASA is now in conflict with its climatologists after new NASA measurements prove that carbon dioxide acts as a coolant in Earth’s atmosphere. NASA’s Langley Research Center has collated data proving that “greenhouse gases” actually block up to 95 percent of harmful solar rays from reaching our planet, thus reducing the heating impact of the sun. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitric oxide (NO) are two substances playing a key role in the energy balance of air above our planet’s surface tending to cool not heat.
Regardless of what one believes or all the myriad factors, “Solar activity has overpowered any effect that CO2 has had,” reports Dr. R. Timothy Patterson. World temperatures have been generally declining for about 10 years while CO2 is rising rapidly,” writes famous weatherman Piers Corybyn, who is an astrophysicist.

All this tells me is that we're entering a new Ice Age and that mankind is the cause of it!
Gods! WHY WON'T SOMEONE RAISE MY TAXES SO THE EARTH WILL WARM UP?????

It's because 28,000 years ago, the government refused to raise taxes!
We just refuse to learn from the past!

I would add that the whole CO2 argument was ramped up for me when I found the report on CO2 and NO spikes out of the atmosphere into Space and releases energy. Heat being energy would certainly be carried out along with the molecules of CO2 and NO.

Maybe they will study doom porn on how long we 'allow' CO2 to escape before we kill all life on Earth next?
Phage might be working on that now. After all, he can't counter with the bad NASA data since that data is in conflict about CO2 cooling the Earth data. Another win for my side in our years long discussion. /some sarc
Actually if Global warming is as rapid as we are being warned AND if it does come to pass it does not mean that EVERYWHERE is going to become a desert or that everywhere is going to be flooded.
As the sea get's less salty
So it is actually quite natural for some glaciers to grow during a period of warming as these control circulation system's slow down or are affected.

As the sea get's less salty with the melting of glaciers in arctic region's the Oceanic Conveyor a natural current that act's as a heat exchange mechanism and climate regulation mechanism in the ocean's - you will know the Atlantic stretch of it better as the Gulf Stream - will actually slow down, it will not therefore be able to warm Eastern North America and Western Europe as much as it does currently and this in turn will cause local cooling in these region's - which perversely may then initiate a climate swing into a new ice age - it was actually warmer than it is today before the start of the last Glacial period according to ice cores taken in Greenland.
Also anything that affects the Gulf stream/Global Oceanic Conveyor will also affect the Jet Stream an air current that blow's act's in the atmosphere in concert with the Ocean Conveyor.
So it is actually quite natural for some glaciers to grow during a period of warming as these control circulation system's slow down or are affected.
This does not mean that there is no Global warming however or that the THEORY is wrong but rather it mean's that a localized area is cooling while other area's are getting hotter AND it can also signal the start of a new ice age OR mini ice age.
Once again it does not mean that the THEORY of global warming is wrong but rather that nature may heal itself by FREEZING a lot of water, those budding lex luthor clone's could even be buying up the wrong real estate if that happens' as instead of land now far from the sea becoming tomorrow's beach front property it could actually leave many city's high and dry BUT at first they may indeed experience a sea level rise before the ice age climate trigger activates.

You do know that this information has been around for decades. Anyone who actually looked at the co2 studies has understood this from the beginning.
