The Truth Behind the Shrinking Arctic Ice Cap — The Patriot Post
Over the past 30 years there has been a rise in the southern ice cap! One would never know it given all the hysteria about the northern ice cap, or some spots on Antarctica being warmer than normal ( it can't be cold everywhere).

I spoke on this matter at the Heartland conference ICCC7. Because the southern hemisphere ice cap is surrounded by ocean, the implication of an expanding southern hemisphere ice cap, even though it appears smaller than the northern shrinkage, is that there is no net change in the overall heat capacity of the entire ocean/air system. This would imply the northern shrinkage is simply a cyclical event.

Readers interested in the truth behind the science, rather than the falsehoods and smears perpetuated by dishonest individuals like Mr. Burns, should consult scientist-run websites like www.realclimate.org and www.skepticalscience.com, and scientifically-based books on the topic like my “Dire Predictions: Understanding Global Warming.”

It’s nothing short of madness that oil companies drill for the fossil fuels that got us into this climate change mess in the first place
That confuses me.  If no one drilled for oil, where would we get the diesel to fill up the 508,000-liter fuel tanks on Greenpeace's 163 foot steel luxury yacht?

Michael Mann calls skepticalscience.com a "scientist-run" website, but Bob Tisdale just published a blog entry revealing that John Cook who runs skepticalscience.com admits right up front that he is not a scientist, but a cartoonist. The whole purpose of skepticalscience.com is to be a joke at the expense of true skeptics.
