Here is a good example where real world empirical data varies hugely from computer model predictions!
Extensive radar surveys on seven glaciers in the Columbia River Basin and Rocky Mountains found the ice 28-49% thicker than originally believed, according to a new study from the University of Northern British Columbia.

Why do you rightwingers cherry-pick data just to feel better? Do you think it will make climate change fake if you only believe one data point out of literally millions that contradict it?

The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets have decreased in mass. Data from NASA's Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment show Greenland lost an average of 279 billion tons of ice per year between 1993 and 2019, while Antarctica lost about 148 billion tons of ice per year.7
Kids in S.F. think we have only 12 yrs. left before the End of Days Apocalypse.
I'm not into Apocalypse and Revelations fairy tales, but planet Earth remaining livable for more than twelve years may be a wildly optimistic forecast.
Nifty, you need to get out more.
I agree.
I've got a confirmed appointment date/time for vaccination, but it's a bit down the road.
Good luck to you my friend. Come down the Cape sometime, I will take you out fishing.
Peer-Reviewed Study Confirms Antarctica Has Not Warmed in Last Seven Decades
Abstract
The Antarctic continent has not warmed in the last seven decades, despite a monotonic increase in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases. In this paper, we investigate whether the high orography of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) has helped delay warming over the continent. To that end, we contrast the Antarctic climate response to CO2-doubling with present-day orography to the response with a flattened AIS. To corroborate our findings, we perform this exercise with two different climate models. We find that, with a flattened AIS, CO2-doubling induces more latent heat transport toward the Antarctic continent, greater moisture convergence over the continent and, as a result, more surface-amplified condensational heating. Greater moisture convergence over the continent is made possible by flattening of moist isentropic surfaces, which decreases humidity gradients along the trajectories on which extratropical poleward moisture transport predominantly occurs, thereby enabling more moisture to reach the pole. Furthermore, the polar meridional cell disappears when the AIS is flattened, permitting greater CO2-forced warm temperature advection toward the Antarctic continent. Our results suggest that the high elevation of the present AIS plays a significant role in decreasing the susceptibility of the Antarctic continent to CO2-forced warming.

Agreed. I've made my arrangements. Have you?I'm not into Apocalypse and Revelations fairy tales, but planet Earth remaining livable for more than twelve years may be a wildly optimistic forecast.
Notice that none of the usual loudmouths have responded. Where's Moony, Joanie, Cypress, Arsecheese et al?

WE know the leftie libs regressives will use and abuse children - they have no qualms about it. Its good of them to stick to their stance on forcing a disabled person to the forefront regardless of the shite they spout. You can just hear them all going "aaaahh, this sweet poor child with Aspergers she must be heard" no matter the crap she says.
