    1930s photos show Greenland glaciers retreating faster than today.

    I would not worry, I do not think the governments will care about this and will continue to keep upping the taxes for global warming.  


    Recently unearthed photographs taken by Danish explorers in the 1930s show glaciers in Greenland retreating faster than they are today, according to researchers.


    We're not worried about rising sea levels. Well, we are in a seaplane.


    The photos in question were taken by the seventh Thule Expedition to Greenland led by Dr Knud Rasmussen in 1932. The explorers were equipped with a seaplane, which they used to take aerial snaps of glaciers along the Arctic island's coasts.


    After the expedition returned the photographs were used to make maps and charts of the area, then placed in archives in Denmark where they lay forgotten for decades. Then, in recent years, international researchers trying to find information on the history of the Greenland glaciers stumbled across them.


    Taken together the pictures show clearly that glaciers in the region were melting even faster in the 1930s than they are today, according to Professor Jason Box, who works at the Byrd Polar Research Center at Ohio State uni.

    The planet is one tuff cookie and it has been fighting back temperature changes forever now. We have bigger issues to face but as humans they are too hard to look at so we focus on things like global warming.

    the government has made a lot of mileage over global warming,there are many global cycles of warming and cooling and we happen to be on a warming cycle at the moment.there is no argument that the earth is warming to what extent we are to blame is the big question.

    I like these cow taxes they dream up and then the governments go out and buy brand new fighter jets with the money.
