SHHHHHHHH!!! The National Park Service has quietly removed all the signs put up by the Obama administration that told visitors that the glaciers would “all be gone” by the year 2020 due to global warming… because… it’s 2019, and the glaciers are all still there and have been growing.
Glacier National Park quietly removed a sign at its visitor center saying the glaciers will disappear by 2020 which were originally placed because former President Obama believed the predictions pushed by the left’s climate change hypothesis.
According to federal officials, several years in a row of high snowfall and cold temperatures totally obliterated a computer model that authorities relied on to claim that the glaciers would all be melted by 2020, Daily Caller reported.Despite reality making a joke of the former computer model that made such a foolish forecast, the signs still hold to the global warming theme. The segment that once said the glaciers would for sure be gone by 2020 now reads, “When they completely disappear, however, will depend on how and when we act.”
The USGS still insists, “The overall picture remains the same, however, and that picture is that the glaciers all continue to retreat.”The signage alteration was first noticed by climate writer Roger Roots who wrote last week, “As recently as September 2018 the diorama displayed a sign saying GNP’s glaciers were expected to disappear completely by 2020. The ‘gone by 2020’ claims were repeated in the New York Times, National Geographic, and other international news sources.”
“Almost everywhere, the Park’s specific claims of impending glacier disappearance have been replaced with more nuanced messaging indicating that everyone agrees that the glaciers are melting,” Roots added.
Dr. Roots explains how the government skews the truth:
A major flaw in the government’s ‘before’ and ‘after’ approach is the omission of precise calendar dates. Every Montanan knows that mountain glaciers grow for 9 months of the year and then melt for 3 months. Thus a picture of a glacier taken in June or July will always show the glacier much larger than will a photo taken in early September. Comparing one year (“circa 1952”) to another year (“2005’) can be highly manipulative. Only a year-by-year, date-by-date comparison of photos taken at the end of the melt season (generally around the second week of September) will establish whether a glacier is growing or shrinking.
This year (2018) it quickly became clear that the glaciers have grown substantially in recent years. A startling example is seen at the Jackson Glacier overlook on the Going-to-the-Sun Road. The government has erected a sign with two photos: (1) the Glacier in 1911; and (2) the Glacier in 2009. The display shows the Jackson Glacier melting away to perhaps 10 or 20 percent of its 1911 size. But visitors to the marker in 2018 are able to look up above in the distance and see that the Jackson Glacier has grown significantly since 2009. The Glacier’s growth may be as much as 30 or more percent since 2009.Since September 2015 Roots has offered to bet anyone $5,000 that GNP’s glaciers will still exist in 2030, in contradiction to the reported scientific consensus. To this date, no one has taken him up on the bet—I certainly won’t.
The Daily Caller notes:The total area of Glacier National Park covered in its iconic glaciers shrank 70% from the 1850s to 2015, according to USGS. Melting began at the end of the so-called Little Ice Age when scientists believe 146 glaciers covered the region, opposed to just 26 in 2019.
Glacial melting is nothing new, they have been receding before this country had a president and long before the global warming hypothesis became popular Let’s go back in history…take a look at this news article from 1952 which talks about different glaciers, claiming the ones in Norway and Alaska had already lost half their size:
The computer models need to stick with…
I’m a model you know what I mean
And I do my little turn on the catwalk
Yeah on the catwalk on the catwalk yeah
I do my little turn on the catwalk
Im to sexy for that sign….
And I’m too sexy for this song.
Ive heard these explanations for UFOs its swamp gas and Venus, Bigfoots snowblower broke a belt.

He may soon be un-appointed by President Trump for straying off the reservation.
Reality: glaciers are growing. Climate alarmists’ explanation:
No, it’s not going that fast. In fact, it is going in reverse of the direction you predicted. Perhaps they need to tweek their tape measures like they tweek their computer models to produce the desired results.
Like most things leftist in nature, it’s all a huge lie based on lies.
@Greg: Humans adapt, climate changes, taxing the life out of the economy solves nothing. We are as likely to die from an asteroid strike or Yellowstone erupting, or old age
@kitt: But liberals can’t get filthy rich and the world turn to socialism if the global warming scam is ignored.
@Deplorable Me: Sure they can https://www.redstate.com/streiff/2019/06/11/nearly-two-hundred-corporate-ceos-declare-killing-babies-makes-business-thrive/
According to current political thought, only the Democrat Communist Party can save the glaciers. Socialism polluted Lake Baykal and ruined the Aral Sea, but Democrats promise they’ll do it better this time. The problem: nasty people with 2nd Amendment guns are in the way and they keep having babies.
