Nova Extreme Ice (1974– ) watch online HD

Amazing photos of melting ice in Greenland and other polar regions.

However, it was funded by mining billionaires the Koch brothers and by ExxonMobil--who seem to have exercised editorial control.

The quoted scientists say only, "we don't know what will happen:" how fast the ice will melt and how fast sea levels will rise. They don't say, "here's what we think will happen."

Also, too much focus on the cameramen themselves; too little on the subject.

Reveals that the last time half of Greenland went ice-free, sea level was ten feet above current levels.

Great footage of meltwater lakes atop the Greenland ice sheet quickly draining through kilometers-deep cracks through to bedrock, speeding the slide of the sheet into the sea.

This episode of Nova, which is generally quite good is junk science on steroids. All through the episode facts which are not known are assumed to be true, and facts that might disprove the underlying ideas behind the show are ignored. What the show says is that during the summer the ice sheets covering Greenland melt and the run off water flows into the north Atlantic. What they don't say is that during the winter it snows and the snow is compacted into new ice, and there is no real indication that the amount of ice on Greenland is decreasing.

The show was shot in 2009 so it is not reflective of what has happened since then. But this year a group of global warming enthusiasts traveled to the Antarctica to demonstrate that there was no more ice and were stuck in the nonexistent ice. So much when ideologically generated pseudoscience conflicts with actual fact.

They can't tell us what the weather will be like next week, but they can tell us that in 2100 the sea level will be three feet higher because Greenland is melting.

There is not enough space here to give a full critique of all that is wrong with this leftist propaganda, but it is utterly rotten.
