Antarctica
On Sunday, CBS claimed that Antarctica is melting. In fact, once small
portion of the Antarctic peninsula is warming and may be losing snow, while the
rest of Antarctica has not been warming and in fact has been gaining ice cover.
The show visits an island off the Antarctic Peninsula which has about as much
weather relevance and predictive power to the rest of Antarctica as Key West has
to the rest of the United States. Absolutely absurd.
Unfortunately, I have a real job and I don't have time to restate all the
rebuttals to the CBS show. However, I took on the Antarctic
issue in depth here, and this post at NC Media
Watch has more.
