Sattelite imagery shows rapid melting of the ice sheet in Greenland.

Strewth!

Hmmm if you read the article this happens once every 150 years. Your post here could be read as this is being blamed on climate change. The rag you are quoting is suggesting this but the NASA site suggests this is a normal cycle.

Paul,

I read both articles and posted them both to encourage debate. The fact is that the overwhelming majority of people get their news from a newpaper, news website or the idiotbox. I first saw this article on the Guardian website but I then checked the sourse of the story. In that spirit I placed both links so people could read for themselves.

But I do get your point, the way I constructed the post was probably not particually skillfull. Anyway, live and learn.

Just for the record I am am concerned about AGW!
