The Arctic circle was probably never touched by humans until the 1930’s.
For over the past decade and longer, the Arctic circle has been traveled via ice breaking ships on a regular basis. This IS man-made melting…. and is more than likely increasing the surrounding land temperature as the Arctic Ocean continues to heat up from getting more and more exposure to direct sunlight instead of having the light reflected off the ice.
More than anything done by man, the breaking up of the ice cap has had the most effect on climate. “Global warming” from natural gases like CO2 is primarily a hoax that has been politically manipulated with half-truths and money while combined with scenes of the north pole arctic melt as was broken up. When you remove the ice from an ocean and allow an ocean to increase in temperature…. how can you not expect an increase in land based temperatures as the ocean is the buffer?
The melting of the ice in the Arctic Ocean will likely result in a net decrease in ocean levels as ice occupies more space than liquid water – and the bulk of floating water is, in fact, underwater. I expect the runoff of ice from the surrounding land to compensate for the net decrease as land surface temperatures continue to rise… thus leaving the ocean levels exactly as they are. This would be an entirely different scenario if Antarctica was melting as it is not at sea level.
The breaking up of the ice cap is also very likely the cause of the shift in the magnetic north pole as the weight imbalance shifts the iron core of the earth. – note – the magnetic south pole has remained primarily stationary.
Antarctica remains solid…as it is a land based continent. Over a mile thick of ice despite it being the driest continent on earth. Its a very comfortable -107 F (-77C) right now.
Aaron, congratulations, that is one of the most incoherent posts I’ve ever read.
“The Arctic circle was probably never touched by humans until the 1930′s.”
Seriously? Amundsen reached the pole in 1926, and people have lived within the Arctic circle for millenia.
The rest of your post just goes downhill from there, can’t even figure out what you are trying to say. Are you saying ice breakers have broken up the ice and caused all the change??
Norway, Sweden and Finland are partially above the Arctic circle. Coast of Norway has been settled for at least thousands of years.
Europeans first visited Spitsbergen in 1596. Due to whaling there are fairly good ice records for this area going back to the 1600’s.
Amundsen was the first to fly over the North Pole. Robert Peary was less than five miles from the North Pole in 1909, at minimum, based on photographic evidence. His navigation wasn’t that good, but wasn’t that bad either.
1930’s???
CO2 warming the surface is basic physics. How much warming is complex, but 3C warming for every doubling of CO2 is realistic and well supported by the evidence.
