Sea ice grows. What do alarmists say now?

[nero_bolt]

If vanishing sea ice was evidence of global warming, what does increasing ice mean? Can’t wait to hear the scaremongers explain this away:

ANTARCTIC sea ice has expanded to record levels for April, increasing by more than 110,000sq km a day last month to nine million square kilometres.

The National Snow and Ice Data Centre said .... “This exceeds the past record for the satellite era by about 320,000sq km, which was set in April 2008,...”

Increased ice cover in Antarctic continues to be at odds with falling Arctic ice levels, where the summer melt has again pushed levels well below the average extent for 1981-2010… [But] the April Arctic minimum was 270,000sq km higher than the record April low, which occurred in 2007.

Together, that leaves us with above-average sea ice:

 Alarmism has been refered to as religion.........giggle.....

being aware of what goes on around you is not would I'd call 'religion''

I call it being aware of the facts. 

but I've always wondered if being in denial of global warming is a weird religious belief??

Is it???

“No matter if the science of global warming is all phony…climate change provides the greatest opportunity tobring about justice and

equality in the world.”- Christine Stewart,former Canadian Minister of the Environment

Huh?

[siggie-reported-by-alarmists]

“We’ve got to ride this global warming issue.Even if the theory of global warming is wrong,we will be doing the right thing in terms of

economic and environmental policy.“- Timothy Wirth,President of the UN Foundation

There are so many quotes.......how embarrassing for the alarmists........lol...

Siggie, did you read this?

Nazis, shoddy science, and the climate contrarian credibility gap

Climate contrarian reputations seem invincible; will Nazi comparisons undermine Roy Spencer's credibility?

 Spencer is also on the advisory board of the Cornwall Alliance, a group with 'An Evangelical Declaration on Global Warming' claiming that

"Earth and its ecosystems—created by God's intelligent design and infinite power and sustained by His faithful providence —are robust, resilient, self-regulating, and self-correcting, admirably suited for human flourishing, and displaying His glory."

The declaration also has a section on "What We Deny,"

and 

Spencer recently wrote in The Christian Post,

...we deny "that most [current climate change] is human-caused, and that it is a threat to future generations that must be addressed by the global community."

Thus it's rather hypocritical of Spencer to complain about the use of a word meaning "a person who denies" when he has expressly admitted to denying these climate positions.

Big surprise: Ken Ham’s creationism extends to climate change denial Creationism and climate denial go hand-in-hand VIDEO

LINDSAY ABRAMS

Following up on his impressive rebuke of evolution/science during last night’s debate with Bill Nye, young-Earth creationist Ken Ham appeared on CNN to explain how global warming isalso a lie, and that climate change, as we’re observing it, can all be explained by original sin.

The extreme weather patterns we’re seeing, Ham told Piers Morgan, are occurring because all of creation is currently winding down, thanks to man’s fall. “There’s been climate change ever since the flood of Noah’s day,” he asserted. And anyway, he said, the climate’s currently in a state of cooling.

Bill Nye looked on, horrified, throughout all of this (or, as Morgan described it, with “a look of vague bafflement” on his face). Morgan then attempted to explain to Ham that, by not believing in global warming, he was in the massive, if vocal, minority.

“I didn’t even tell you what I believe about global warming,” Ham interrupted to say. “I didn’t say I believe in global warming. I believe in climate change, because we see that and have records of that.”
