I had expected to see more snow on the mountains but I guess the glaciers really are disappearing fast.
ETA: Despite the ridiculous 'Climategate' discovery that the prediction of Himalayan glaciers disappearing by 2035 was made by an environmental group and not by scientists, I expect it will prove to be substantially true. Certainly I expect that by 2035 so much of those glaciers will have disappeared that no one (except the obviously obstinate deniers) will doubt that the rest is going to go very rapidly. (May 2010)

Guest opinion by David Archibald The global warming hysteria was reaching a crescendo in the lead up to the climate confab in Copenhagen in 2009 when a civic-minded person released the Climategate emails, deflating the whole thing. Those emails demonstrated that the science behind global warming was more like science fiction, concocted from the fevered…

Rick Perry's Galileo Metaphor Is Totally Backwards
By Adam Clark Estes | The Atlantic Wire – Thu, Sep 8,
When the subject of science came up during last night's Republican debate, all eyes drifted to Rick Perry. "Just recently in New Hampshire you recently said that weekly or even daily scientists are coming forward to question that human activity is behind climate change," John Harris from Politico asked the governor of Texas. "Which scientists have you found most credible on this subject?" Perry only named only one scientist: Galileo.
It was a metaphor to be sure, one meant to illuminate the idea that it took a while for science to agree that the Earth spins around the sun, instead of the other way around. "Galileo got outvoted for a spell," said Perry, in attempting to argue that the issue of climate change remains "unsettled." But what Perry fails to realize is the fact that the scientific community actually agreed with Galileo. It was the clergy who outvoted him, accusing him of being a heretic. "By the time Galileo was publishing on heliocentrism, the idea was already circulating and widely accepted in scientific circles, including Jesuits," explains Joshua Rosneau from the National Center for Science Education. "He wasn't outvoted by scientists, he was outvoted by the political and religious leadership of his country."

The example of Galileo would actually make a great metaphor for climate change scientists, not the deniers. Following his Galileo blunder, Perry parrots the familiar political reasoning behind brushing off the theory of climate change, one supported by the vast majority of environmental scientists--97 percent of them, in fact. Perry warns of putting "America’s economic future in jeopardy, asking us to cut back in areas that would have monstrous economic impact on this country." But a study by the National Academy of Science and funded by Congress said bluntly that the "the environmental, economic, and humanitarian risks posed by climate change indicate a pressing need for substantial action to limit the magnitude of climate change and to prepare for adapting to its impacts." Despite what Perry claims, climate change continues to be debated not by scientists but by politicians.

For what it's worth, the Catholic Church has apologized (many times) for their mistreatment of Galileo 400 years ago. The Vatican is even building a statue in his honor in their gardens. We can only hope that politicians don't wait that long to reach a consensus on the climate change debate.

13 December 2009 Fraudespecialist Rörsch dat de emails van Climategate de intentie tot bedriegen bewijzen. Het is helemaal niet waar dat de aarde opwarmt.
Here it is two years in a row and we have snow in Houston. It's the earliest we have had snow on record, yet Al Gore and the nutjobs in our government are trying to pass the largest tax in world history to fix something that is not broken and couldn't be fixed by man anyway. With the release of the Climategate e-mails and shockingly cool global weather, the kool-aid drinkers plan to fly their carbon spewing private jet to Copenhagen to discuss what the world can do (really what the US tax dollars can do) to prevent us from burning up from global warming. They're all lairs!
