Was there anyone here 34,000 years ago to check to see if there was ice in the arctic during summer? How about 675,896 years ago?

The Greenland glacier was on a rapid decline near the end of the 1990s (which prompted Rev. Al to become hysterical) but for some odd reason it stopped. Are you sure the Arctic will be ice free in a few years during summer?

South Pole is getting colder with ice sheets getting thicker in the middle. How do you explain that?

Half of Colorado is buried under snow, in May.

I have not noticed the temperature in my city to be any different over the past 25 years. Some summers get hot and some winters are cold.

If it's "global" warming, why are there places getting colder?
