So determined and so willing to believe the AGW hype that is promoted by groups who gain political as well as financial reward to promote and exacerbate the effects of any global warming, that naïve and opportunist people still attempt to circumnavigate the Polar Ocean. Another (yawn) group has set sail to prove the Arctic ice has disappeared; but yet again the 'useful idiots hit the cold ice wall of reality

Here straight from the distressed Polar Bears mouth

We have this report from David Hempleman-Adams


"So we are in Murmansk. Last night was the survivors dinner for the crew that brought the yacht from Bristol. Lots of Vodka and lots of relief

Now Northabout is in the Commercial dock. A small yacht surrounded by huge container carrying freighters.

Our latest news is we have problems on two fronts

Ironically whilst the NW passage is now nearly open way ahead of schedule on the north east passage the route is Solid ice right up to the land and is the worst for many years. We are trying to predict when to leave as it will take 10 days to get to that point. Will it have changed by then. We don’t want to be stuck in the ice waiting. We also don’t want to miss an opportunity when we are sat in Murmansk. What to do !"


I have to ask: Is the bandwagon of dangerous AGW just another Ponzi scheme?
