2007 Earth Keeper Energy Summit: Hundreds reduce power use
November 14th, 2009 | by cmotel |(Marquette, Michigan) – Business owners, clergy and homeowners from across northern Michigan were given numerous tips on reducing their utility bills during the 2007 Earth Keeper Energy Summit including the latest on an upcoming vote in the state legislature that would send wind-generated electricity to all residents. About 100 people attended the day-long conference on Wednesday June 13, 2007 in Marquete, Michigan sponsored by the Superior Watershed Partnership in cooperation with the Cedar …

A great initiative. How can you set up conferences to repeat the concepts and ideas in other places around the world ?

There you go again making false accusations.
You have to click on “view all comments”.
This is what always happens when the posts go this long.
It’s the you tube program – not me.
I am not afraid of anything I said – nor would I muzzle you – even if I disagree.
The more you post – the more you make my points.

Concern is also raised that new observations linked with the Greenland and possibly Antarctic ice sheets may mean that the rate of ice loss will increase above previous forecasts.
The Greenland Ice Sheet has experienced record melting in recent years and is likely to contribute substantially to sea level rise as well as to possible changes in ocean circulation in the future.

ScienceDaily (Nov. 20, 2007) — The challenges and opportunities facing the world as a result of climate change have been distilled into a concise and sobering guide by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
This fourth IPCC report raises serious concerns of species extinction as well as arguing strongly in favor of stepping up support and action on adaptation to the effects of global warming.

You are misleading people about IPCC report.
People can easily find their homepage doing search since you tube won’t allow links in these messages.

I also condemn them – AND you for using it for your own purposes.
Shame on anyone who brings Holocaust into debate.
Plus – Radicals on both sides – (like ELF & ALF and any environmentalists who use violence or inflame) – and those like you who claim there is no problem – cheapen the debate.
Radicals on both sides should stop their cheap tactics.

IPCC 2007:
“Antarctic sea ice extent continues to show inter-annual variability and localized changes but NO STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT AVERAGE TRENDS, consistent with the LACK OF WARMING reflected in atmospheric temperatures averaged across the region”

It is the deep green movement that has introduced the word “Holocaust” into the debate. They deserve utterly to be called on making such a contemptible comparison. For you to then falsely accuse me of claiming “the Holocaust did not happen” merely shows how twisted and illogical is the mentality that pervades climate alarmism.

As you admit you didn’t even watch the video. If you had you’d know that my argument is with those GW propagandists who cheapen the murder of European Jews, by comparing those who challenge their skewed conclusions with Holocaust deniers.
You would also see the words “Holocaust denier” written by Greenpeace propagandist Susannah Bailey, and spoken by GW alarmist Bill McGuire- THEIR choice of words, not mine.

Back on topic – I suppose you think NASA is lying.

And even if the title is misleading – you did it on purpose – and that is at the very least passive aggressive if not worse.
But you know that too – and that’s why you put Holocaust in the title.
I don’t waste my time watching your videos because you are hostile and angry – like many of the same ilk who dislike anyone who wants to protect the planet.

It is in the title of one of your videos.
But you already know that.
The title of that video is: “Climate Denial = Holocaust Denial?”
Even a comparison or premise like that is antisemitic because you want to leave that impression.
To put that human tragedy in the title of one of your videos – railing against those who want to protect the environment – is wrong in so many ways.

I challenge you to post evidence of your assertion that I “…claim the Holocaust did not happen”.
You can’t do it can you? Because it is an absolute falsehood.
But hey, why worry about something as inconvenient as the truth?

I see you are also one of those who claim the Holocaust did not happen.
Your own words are the reason you are not taken seriously.

Rignot said scientists are now observing these climate-driven changes over a significant fraction of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, and the extent of the glacier ice losses is expected to keep rising in the years to come. “Even in East Antarctica, where we find ice mass to be in near balance, ice loss is detected in its potentially unstable marine sectors, warranting closer study,” he said.
By YOOPERNEWSMAN on Nov 14, 2009 | Reply
The team found that the net loss of ice mass from Antarctica increased from 112 (plus or minus 91) gigatonnes a year in 1996 to 196 (plus or minus 92) gigatonnes a year in 2006. A gigatonne is one billion metric tons, or more than 2.2 trillion pounds. These new results are about 20 percent higher over a comparable time frame than those of a NASA study of Antarctic mass balance last March that used data from the NASA/German Aerospace Center Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment.

In a first-of-its-kind study, an international team led by Eric Rignot of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., and the University of California, Irvine, estimated changes in Antarctica’s ice mass between 1996 and 2006 and mapped patterns of ice loss on a glacier-by-glacier basis. They detected a sharp jump in Antarctica’s ice loss, from enough ice to raise global sea level by 0.3 millimeters (.01 inches) a year in 1996, to 0.5 millimeters (.02 inches) a year in 2006.

Today NASA said the melting is speeding up.
Antarctic Ice Loss Speeds up, Nearly Matches Greenland Loss
PASADENA, Calif. — Ice loss in Antarctica increased by 75 percent in the last 10 years due to a speed-up in the flow of its glaciers and is now nearly as great as that observed in Greenland, according to a new, comprehensive study by NASA and university scientists.

Melting ice caps?
According to the IPCC’s 2007 report there is no evidence of loss of Antarctic ice mass, or overall cooling. Inform yourself.

You are entitled to your opinion no matter how uninformed it is.
I am amazed on how many people want to ignore the loud signs from nature like the melting of the ice caps and so many more examples.
Have you seen how many species went extinct in the past decade?
I can tell by your message that you won’t be convinced until a major disaster – and probably don’t care because it will be the hardest on those humans who are very young now – long after you and I are gone.
