Ice Caps Thickening Whilst Offsets Destroy Rainforest

Here are the real research facts about Global warming and climate change :-
During the last decade, East Antarctica thickened at an average rate of about 1.8 centimetres per year. The Antarctic is so cold that even with increases of a few degrees, temperatures would generally remain below the melting point of ice. Warmer temperatures are expected to lead to more snow, which would increase the amount of ice in Antarctica, offsetting approximately one third of the expected sea level rise from thermal expansion of the oceans.

Antarctica’s Ice Cover Thickens
The lowest recorded temperature of any location on Earth surface was −93.2 °C (−135.8 °F) at 81.8°S 59.3°E, which is on an unnamed Antarctic plateau between Dome A and Dome F, on August 10, 2010. The highest temperature ever recorded in Antarctica was 14.5 °C (58.2 °F) in two places, Hope Bay and Vanda Station, on 5 January 1974.

The West Antarctic ice sheet has warmed by only than 0.1 °C/decade in the last 50 years, and was strongest in winter and spring of the 1980 & 1990s . NOT NOW! Although this is partly offset by fall cooling in East Antarctica, this effect is restricted to the 1980s and 1990s.
The British Antarctic Survey, which has undertaken the majority of Britain's scientific research in the area, has the following positions:
• Climate models predict more snowfall than ice melting during the next 50 years,
• Antarctica seems to be both warming around the edges and cooling at the centre at the same time. Thus it is not possible to say whether it is warming or cooling overall.
• There is no evidence for a decline in overall Antarctic sea ice extent.
• The area of strongest cooling appears at the South Pole, and the region of strongest warming lies along the Antarctic Peninsula only
Yet the global warming mob ignored all these findings and promoted the only 2 that suited them
• Researchers reported December 21, 2012 in Nature Geoscience that from 1958 to 2010, the average temperature at the mile-high Byrd Station rose by 2.4 degrees Celsius, with warming fastest in its winter and spring. The spot which is in the heart of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet beyond the arctic peninsula - is one of the fastest-warming places on Earth. but it must be remembered that this sheet is not static and is slowly moving into warmer seas all the time

Don't let these facts be selectively promoted and misconstrued by our politicians for the sole purpose of introducing new taxes and policies that are in reality destroying our planet - IE Carbon credits that allow big companies to buy Amazonian rain-forest to off set their tax and then they use it as a toxic waste dump that destroys the forest - These same hypocritical governments hamper the alternative fuel industries due to their loss in fossil fuel industry taxes - Change to alternative fuels is what we want along with a lowering of our cost of living. Real pollution reduction by big business should be rewarded - not individuals taxed for the air they breath....

More than 20 billion gallons of toxic drilling waste and 17 million gallons of oil have been dumped into the soil and waterways of the Amazon rain-forest -
Will dumping mining waste in peat-lands in Indonesia help mitigate climate change?
