Antarctic Crew Build Ice Helipad To Help Rescuers

They went in search evidence of the world’s melting ice caps, but instead a team of climate scientists have been forced to abandon their mission … because the Antarctic ice is thicker than usual at this time of year.

The scientists have been stuck aboard the stricken MV Akademik Schokalskiy since Christmas Day, with repeated sea rescue attempts being abandoned as icebreaking ships failed to reach them.

Now that effort has been ditched, with experts admitting the ice is just too thick. Instead the crew have built an icy helipad, with plans afoot to rescue the 74-strong team by helicopter.

I heard someone say they should rename the ship 'The Inconvenient Truth'

Have no fear, Al Gore is on his way to prove global warming. Another Democrat full of horse hockey.

It;s summer down there! This global warming thing is really needed now! Hey, Big Al! Pay your climate tax to free the ships!

I hope the 3rd rescue ship gets stuck as well!

Meanwhile, back at the North Pole, where it really is winter, there is 30% more ice so far, and it's building as well!

We'll have another ice age on our hands if we don't start burning some more coal!

No one should lift a finger to help these complete idiot. May their deaths be a reminder to all Who is really IN CHARGE!
