Every few years, we hear about someone who is convinced they can travel by sea to the North Pole. Depending on which source you consult, that hasn’t happened for over five million years, but thanks to the media charlatans hawking the prognostications of quacks, some are convinced it can be done.
Take a Number and a Seat
There were arboreal forests in northern Greenland 5.3 million years ago, so it can happen, but you’ll have to swallow a big reality sandwich. No one was burning fossil fuels back then unless you could tree, and you’d need to wait another four million years until the best guessers postulate common use. This ‘suggests’ that anthropogenics has nothing to do with it, and it “might be” celestial mechanics.
Similar expeditions include the privately funded search for the floating island of plastic debris in the ocean. It’s a big ocean, but neither Google Earth (which only exists thanks to DARPA and the CIA) nor well-meaning investors have been able to find it. Likewise, there isn’t much evidence of accelerated sea level rise, an increase in the frequency or severity of weather events, or that increased funding is capable of either finding some? More money can heighten awareness of the lies and, at some future date, claim that all the things it said that were happening (that were not) have been fixed. Just stop lying, and ta-da!
Global Fascism, led by the WEF, WHO, and UN, fixed it (and stop asking how that happened while India, China, and Africa exponentially expanded their coal-burning economies). Some coal is more equal than others – and I ranted about that to wonder about this.
Stranded Hikers Rescued
New Hampshire Fish and Game had to rescue a pair of hikers in the White Mountains. They call the Mountains that (not because of racism But) because well into the Spring, they are covered with stuff children were not supposed to have known or seen for going on two generations. Snow. It snows up there as late as June and as early as September.
I don’t recall any July snowstorms on Mt. Washington, but I suspect they’ve had a few, even in the fairy tale era of cataclysmic anthropogenic climate disruption.
“The hikers did not take into account winter conditions with below-freezing temperatures and rain,” the release said. “They also were not prepared to deal with deep snow.”
Conservation officers reminded visitors that winter conditions persist in the White Mountains, the release said.
They were from Canada, Eh? Nice folks, I’m certain, who may have been convinced that in mid-May, way down south in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, it has to be warm enough to hike without an adequate understanding of the risks.
The hikers, who were wet and tired, called for rescue after they couldn’t continue in the deep snow at 5:18 p.m. Thursday, May 9, New Hampshire Fish & Game said in a news release.
Three conservation officers met the hikers at 10:10 p.m. and guided them to a road, where they were driven down the mountain, the agency said.
About two dozen hikers get rescued in the Whites annually, and every now and again, someone dies on a mountain in New Hampshire, but Climate Change didn’t kill them. Being unprepared is typically the culprit. You need to do a bit of research. Actual research.
They have mountaintop forecasts, live webcams, and current and expected conditions. But just like the rest of New England, the weather can change quickly, and there’s nothing you can emit (or stop emitting) that will change that
