So what do you think is the real reason the Antarctic is melting.
A: the huge super volcano under the ice sheet
B: humans

So when will the rip off taxes imposed on us stop?

To be fair AFAIK that only covers the melting of a part of Antarctica - though funnily enough it is one (of several) of the areas that images of receding ice have been used in connection with climate change.

Z: We're slowly being pulled into a massive black hole, so the evil alien overloads are stealing our wimins and gummie bears.

I guess this explains why the oceans have record levels of acidity due to carbon dioxide pollution?

Nope

LabR@t in 'not reading links and making wildly inaccurate, ignorant conclusions based on a headline' shock.

Colour me surprised.

Heat bloom under Antarctica you say?

We may never know.

I'll go for an educated C option, bit of both bit mostly humans and co2.

At least Labr@t isn't blaming foreigners for once

Second Stargate discovered?

 

[Dirk Diggler]

If NASA and their massive resource of time and money can't be sure, then what's the point in asking us?

Well that volcanic plume damn well isn't British is it??????

 

[Vonhelmet]

The warming is occurring everywhere. If it were coming from under the earth you'd need all the magma and warmth to be moving out from the centre of the earth, which doesn't make sense in terms of either mavity or thermodynamics.

Isn't it Alien vs Predator ? If I'm right i''m in two minds as to whether knowing the reference is a good thing or not.

I think it might be, i just remembered the stargate being found there too

You are kidding?!

This is why i don't agree with home schooling.

Least it keeps the crazy away from the other kids

 

[Avenged7Fold]

So after this one, are we going to get a thread on vaccines causing autism or are we just going to skip straight to homeopathy?

Do you really believe that like Highlander "there can be only one". It's a curious worldview where everything is binary, it's either a this or a that but never could the truth lie somewhere between the extremes.

I don't think there's any reason to assume that both humans and the natural environment can't have an impact on the climate. You can possibly argue about the level of impact that humans have but that they are having an impact is pretty well undeniable based on the evidence. In light of that why shouldn't we try to minimise the impacts that humans have as far as we reasonably can - I am making the presumption that we quite like the climate the way it is and the longer we can preserve that the better.
