Volcanoes In Antarctica May Be Cause Of Warming
Posted on January 24th, 2009 by MoverMike
In a previous post, Arctic Seabed Alive With Volcano Action, scientists may have explanation for thinning ice in arctic. Now we have antarctic volcanoes beneath the ice and could be the cause of 1 degree warming, say the NY Times!
Also, if you look at the location of the warming, it is contained in the western region by the mountain range, indicating the warmer air comes from a local source and not a global phenomena to the entire continent. And keep in mind this huge red area is only an increase in temperature of 1 degree Fahrenheit. Traditional weather maps typically show color changes for 10 degree Fahrenheit differences.
That can’t be, I read where those volcanoes don’t give off heat and the only reason the ice sheet was melting was due to humans destruction of the planet’s ecological balance. If I had a better memory of where I read that I’d list it here; but it was in the past two years when they discovered volcanic activity below the northern ice shelf. Some egg head ecological whacko scientist was dead set on pointing the blame on humans rather than admit that under sea volcanoes might be producing enough heat to change the water temperature. No, not fooling.
