Dubious prediction isn’t even expected for 1,000 years
Scaremongering headlines about the “collapse” of the the Antarctic ice sheet omitted the fact that such an event isn’t predicted to happen for as much as 1,000 years, underscoring once again how the mass media grossly exaggerates the threat posed by global warming.
On Monday, the Guardian reported that the “Western Antarctic ice sheet collapse has already begun,” prompting the likes of NBC News, the New York Times, the LA Times and CNN to hastily regurgitate the alarmism.
It isn’t until the third paragraph of the Guardian article that the true context of the story becomes clear, when Suzanne Goldenberg acknowledges that the potential loss of the ice sheet along with a 13ft sea level rise “is still several centuries off, and potentially up to 1,000 years away.”
The article also failed to mention that Antarctic sea ice expanded to record levels for April, growing by more than 110,000sq km a day last month to nine million square kilometers.

Just a bunch of idiot followers , and tree huggers.
Complete desperation on the part of the redistribution crowd
Are we still arguing against global warming. Are you all that ignorant to listen to science

Perhaps you should actually study the science and quit listening to the rhetoric about man made global warming.
I think you would find that there any no science to back up the claims outside of computer models that have been horribly wrong so far.
Note: ALL, that is 100% of the computer models that predicted run away global warming going back to 1980 have been wrong!
There hasn't been any warming for 17 years.
Now, what about the science? Hmmm?
