Ancient microbes frozen for thousands of years in Siberia’s permafrost are thawing, researchers have warned – and could pose a ‘disastrous’ threat to the human race. Virologist Jean-Michel Claverie has warned that as global warming defrosts ice which has remained frozen since tens of thousands of years before the dawn of civilization, ancient viruses could…

The Global Warming Narrative Just Hit a Literal Iceberg
Global warming is not a serious topic. No one cares, but the left wants us all to suffer in order to drop the Earth’s temperature by less than a degree or whatever. Let’s cannibalize future economic growth, curb population growth while we’re at it, and declare war on burgers. These are the most miserable people…
Humpback whales face a major setback from climate change
After largely recovering from decades of overhunting, one of the most iconic whale species may be at risk from climate change, as warming waters could force it away from its traditional breeding grounds in the tropics. According to a new study , projected sea surface temperature increases mean that many humpback whale breeding areas would…
New data on Earth’s youngest glacier reveals a healthy fellow, while Earth’s ice elsewhere is losing its battle against global warming
No one in the world has seen a glacier grow from virtually the very first snowflake. The 25-year-old Tulutsa Glacier is the fastest growing new glacier in the world. While most of mountain glaciers are shrinking or disappearing because of global warming, this US glacier keeps advancing at an accelerated pace. TULUTSA GLACIER Tulutsa…
