There will be no "stopping" GW.
That boat left a while ago.
Adapt or die.

So we're going to have to learn to breathe hydrogen sulfide?
Giant sheets of ice totaling almost eight square miles broke off an ice shelf in the Canadian Arctic last week and more could follow later this year, scientists said on Tuesday.
In a development consistent with climate change theories, the enormous icy plain broke free sometime last week and began slowly drifting into the Arctic Ocean. The piece had been a part of the shelf for 3,000 years.
...Ellesmere Island was once home to a single enormous ice shelf totaling around 3,500 square miles. All that is left of that shelf today are five much smaller shelves that together cover just under 400 square miles.

Nah, that's Mr. Sarcasm. Or so I hope, right???

I am referring to the two adjacent news articles, the first claiming disaster because eight square miles have dropped of Canada and the next one saying Bangladesh as grown by eight square miles.
Is this a result of the physical property that energy (in the form of mass) can never be lost? This also is against the mantra of algore that the oceans will rise 20 feet. Eight square miles of ice melt and yet Bangladesh is now higher out of the water? Give me a break.

That ice is 3000 years old. That's the significance of it.

What curbing of oil usage?
