Heat flow from Earth's mantle contributes to Greenland ice melting
I think it's pitiful to have to post things over, and over, and over, because small minds cannot remember.
Contributes to. Yes. So?
Greenland ice sheet
[h=1]Study: ‘accelerated melting of the lower Greenland ice sheet’ due to bacteria darkening the surface albedo[/h]From RESEARCH ORGANIZATION OF INFORMATION AND SYSTEMS and the “dirty snow” department. Factors promoting growth of cryoconite granule formation and glacial/ice sheet melting Cryoconite granules (see Figure 1) are dark, millimeter-sized aggregations of bacteria and algae, mineral particles and organic matter that form on the surface of glaciers. They are also known to be a significant…
Free for all time. Deniers will deny; realists will say, Holy ****!" And alarmists will want to immediately impose a Carbon Tax.
If it didn't "contribute to," then maybe the ice would be increasing, at least shrinking less.
There is more than just man's activity going on here.
Do you "deny" nature?
Ah. A denier.
I've literally explained this about a hundred times in this subforum. If you're still attacking this straw man, you're beyond help. You're a partisan hack who pays absolutely no attention to what people are actually arguing.
Nobody in history has ever argued mankind is the only influence on climate. If you cannot see this, stop discussing this topic because you're comically uneducated on it.
Lying or full of ****. I could not care less which it is. But, that he's a denier of facts is self-evident.
That is the same as calling him a liar.
Please show what science he is denying or retract that. (LoP)

Evidence for global warming
Weasel words.Can you actually manage to say what exactly he is denying? He, and I, and others, do not deny the fact that the world has got warmer. We do not deny the science. What we question is the none-science none-sense doom mongers who drivel on without any reference or understnding of the science. Such as you it seems.
Show what he denies or retract with an appology.
1) Evidence is not always fact.
2) Global Warming does not mean AGW.
3) Last updated by MichaelK... who is that?
4) Archive shows by:
James Wight
James Wight is a Science student with Macquarie University, Sydney, intending to major in climate science. He has been passionately interested in climate science for several years.
Why does he have more credibility than Watts?
Has he graduated yet?
Weasel words.
The science has been posted. Denial runs deep. And, if you want nonsense, nonsense is saying the glaciers all over the world are melting because of volcanic soot and not global warming. What a crock of **** that was.
If you cannot link to that you should retract it as nobody has ever said that.
This subject is clearly far too complex for you. Leave it to those who can hold two ideas in thier head at once.
Yes.
Only where exposed to soot of the ring of fire.
Yes.
sheet ice is diminishing, the ocean has thermal expansion, water is being pumped out of aquifers ending up in the sea, and silt continues to add to the sea content.
Yes.
Yes, man's encroachment on the land in ever increasing. Do you advocate population control?
Especially from over fishing.
How did you come to that conclusion?
Wow..
You are so blinded by your confirmation bias, you fail to understand other people's viewpoints.
Read it and weep
So in post 18 LoP said that he agreed with you that the world has and is warming, that forrests are being cut down etc.. and you say that he has denied that these things are so and badly quote the bit where he said the opposite.
You are clearly unable to comprehend stuff other people write at all.
If you agree with him that soot from volcanoes is the cause for glacier retreat, please provide proof. He certainly has not.
