Icebergs Sailing Past New Zealand

An anonymous reader writes "A fleet of icebergs is heading north from Antarctica and at least one has reached New Zealand, an event that has not occurred in decades. While not necessarily a consequence of global warming it is very cool!"

Rely on lack of knowledge to spread fear.

because someone from an organization will claim it does. As with much in the way of such publications they will rely on the general lack of knowledge of the public. If not now I bet there will be some group that references "iceburgs off of NZ a few years back" in some passage as justification for "their" view of global warming.

Too much of the Global Warming hysteria, and yes a lot of the pronoucements are bordering if not crossing that line, follow the same pattern. Have an official sounding name, employ a few government scientist who have no other opportunity for work, and set a deadline likely not to be seen in many's lifetime.

Works wonders for many subjects. Dire predictions and such make headlines. Headlines garner attention. Attention can lead to money. Somehow I think underwear is involved.
