Some excepts..

"THOUSANDS of penguin chicks are freezing to death as Antarctica is
lashed by rain and scientists say Adelie penguin numbers may have
dropped 80 per cent."

"Scientists say if the downpours continue, the species will be extinct
within 10 years."

"Temperatures in the Antarctic have risen by 3C in the past 50 years
to an average of -14.7C and rain is now more common than snow."

"Such rain in Antarctica was a new phenomenon, and penguins were
freezing to death, said explorer Jon Bowermaster."

Just think.. 10 years and Emperor Penguins will only exist on film.

Shame on All AGW deniers, who pollute these news groups with mindless
drivel.


Makes one wonder how they survived the Medieval Warm Period, The Roman
Warm Period, and other warm times. Especially the Eemian Interglacial
125,000 years B.P. when global average temperatures were anywheres
from 3 - 8 degrees warner then now. Even our caveman ancestors
survived that, as well as the Ice Age.

Just how did those pesky Polar Bears, Penguins, Reindeer and Coral
Reefs etc. etc. survive all the previous Warm Times ???????

Funny also how latest studies show the Antarctic for the
most part is cooling.
Climate keeps changing but you guys want to stop climate change
and keep some sort of artificial man-controlled stable climate. At
what cost?
