Funny how the Antarctic ice is on another earth, not this one,








The Antarctic ice is on another hemisphere, not another earth, and not


where




most of us live.








Cheers, Alastair.






We the Arctic isn't where most of us live either Alastair




No, we live in the Northern Hemisphere, where the Arctic acts as the main

air conditioner. Without the ice, we will swelter or bake :-(



Cheers, Alastair.


I thought the oceans and atmosphere were in a constant state of trying to reach equilibrium (lovely old Roman town)and hence couple with the earths rotation the atmosphere and oceans were always moving so of course what happens at the south pole has just as much influence on global condition and nay the Arctic as well.

So if the Antarctic has no bearing on us in the NH (which is nonsense)) why do the AGW acolytes keep banging on about -or did, until the ice just kept on growing so they decided its the Arctic that important not Antarctica.

By what you're saying Alastair if all the Antarctic land and sea ice were to melt although it would greatly impound on the sea side arcades and fish and chip shops as they would be under water , it still wouldn't have any effect on the sea side weather. No need for Blackpool to worry then , just break out those canoes
