Al Gore trumpets the latest conclusions of Climate Change Advocate David Barber. "Sea ice in Canada's fragile Arctic is melting more quickly than anyone expected," says University of Manitoba Prof. David Barber, the lead investigator of the Circumpolar Flaw Lead System study released Friday. Barber is the lead investigator in the largest climate change study done in Canada. Barber said before the expedition, scientists were working under the theory that climate change would happen much more slowly. It was assumed the Arctic would be ice-free in the winter by 2100. "We expect it will happen much faster than that, much earlier than that, somewhere between 2013 and 2030 are our estimates right now. So it's much faster than what we would expect to happen. That can be said for southern climates as well." "We're seeing it happen more quickly than what our models thought would happen," Barber said. When you read the article, notice a few things: 1) The conclusions are ALL Based on CLIMATE MODELS. 2) Canada Government paid $156-million to Barber et al for the study. 3) The Inuit population are starting to chase the cash cow as well: "There's also the need for economic development," Hmmmmmm. |
