So...flying to Greenland (making CO2) to watch ice melt is a good idea for rich vacationers? Am I the only one seeing this as stupid? Of course, most are trying to cash in on the hysteria. Remember Greenland wasn't originally named that because it was covered in ice peeps!!!!!

PT Barnum was right...there's a sucker born every minute. Even more so with this AGW hooey.

Greenland???....hahahahahahAHHAHAHAHAAHA!....It's cold enough in Pittsburgh! If I am going anywhere, it won't we anywhere north of hear. NEVER! Not even for the polar bears! But naturally there will be a bunch of melon heads out there that will buy into this latest notch in the farce. Hey, I have an idea. Maybe Ozone Al can have his Stop Global Warming Concerts up in Greenland while the ice caps melt! Gee, wouldn't that enhance his arguement moreso than holding it is someplace where summer happens every year???....oooh no, can't do that...It would be too cold for poor old Al and his minions!

As the ice melts during the current warming, more of the farms buried in ice after the Medieval Warm Period will become exposed and we will remember that this isn't the first time it has warmed up in "Green"-land.

As much fun as it is to live in a continuously frozen wasteland with no way to make a living, I think the locals may be enjoying some tourist dollars from concerned citizens pumping large amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere on their environmentally conscious vacation.

 Is New York new? Is Buffalo full of cattle? Is Washington clean?
Did wine grapes once grow in Iceland? Same latitude same climate, different name, same story

There are many reasons for place names. Greenland was named because an explorer wanted to share the good fortune of finding a huge Iceberg stuck on a rock. Imagine sailing in freezing waters avoiding ice bergs only to discover that one had a rock underneath it. Worth a look, but how would you attract interest?
Ice cores from the surviving glaciers show that the Ice has been there for thousands of years, no shock, so why do sceptics try to deny global warming and insist the island once had a thriving farming community. Recently average temperatures have increased by 5 degrees in the region while global temperatures show only a 1-2 degree rise in the last century. Alaska Siberia the Arctic and Antarctic also confirm a 5-7 degree increase in temperature. The ice is thundering off land and crashing into the sea at speed and it�s caused by global warming.
