Re: the source of your OP:

IceAgeNow

Background

IceAgeNow is a website originally located at iceagenow.com and now iceagenow.info. It describes itself as “a Web site dedicated to showing that our climate is driven by natural cycles, not by humans” that fears that “one of those cycles – the Milankovitch Cycle – is leading us into the next ice age right now” and that “this nonsense about 'global warming' will leave us blindsided and unprepared. [1]

IceAgeNow regularly publishes articles skeptical of climate change by its author, and sole employee, Robert Felix — a former architect. George Monbiot at The Guardian describes IceAgeNow as primarily serving to promote Felix's book about the “coming ice age.” Monbiot says that Felix selectively picks evidence in his attempt to disprove man-made global warming. [18], [2]

“Is Felix a climatologist, a volcanologist or an oceanographer?” Monbiot asks. “Er, none of the above. His biography describes him as a 'former architect'. His website is so bonkers that I thought at first it was a spoof. Sadly, he appears to believe what he says.”

As the title of the website suggests, IceAgeNow regularly posts articles suggesting the possibility of global cooling. It often posts articles on localized weather events like low temperatures and snowfalls, implying that these are signs of global cooling. Skeptical Science has a comprehensive article on global cooling here.

Not by Fire but by Ice

Robert Felix uses his website to promote his books Not by Fire but by Ice (Sugarhouse Publishing, 2000) and Magnetic Reversals and Evolutionary Leaps. His general theory is that the reversal of the poles will lead to environmental changes and a coming ice age. [6], [7]

IceAgeNow publishes “news” related to climate change skepticism and documenting heavy snowfalls and instances of cool temperatures as evidence for our descent into another ice age. In 2015, it also began promoting presidential candidate Donald Trump's positions on climate change and the EPA, as well as those of other conservative politicians such as Ted Cruz who has described climate change as a “religion.” For example: [5]

October 30, 2015: Trump vows to cut funding for EPA
October 29, 2016: “This is why the American people don’t trust the media” – Thank you Ted Cruz!
October 28, 2015: Trump – ‘We could use a big fat dose of global warming’
October 27, 2015: Trump on climate change – Video
October 26, 2015: Where do candidates stand on global warming?
Stance on Climate Change
March 2009

IceAgeNow described itself in a pamphlet for the Heartland Institute's Second International Conference on Climate Change (ICCC2):

“[O]ur climate is driven by natural cycles, not by humans. We fear that one of those cycles – the Milankovitch Cycle – is leading us into the next ice age right now. We also fear that this nonsense about 'global warming' will leave us blindsided and unprepared.” [1]

Funding

Funding details are not available for IceAgeNow, however appears the website's primary purpose is to sell Robert Felix's book and DVD, Not by Fire but by Ice.

Key People

Robert Felix appears to be the only employee of IceAgeNow.

According to WHOIS records, he registered the domain iceagenow.info on July 24, 2011. The previous website, IceAgeNow.com, was originally created on April 29, 2002. [3], [4]

My God, even Rana has stopped using DeSmogBlog. The attack dog website started by a convicted money launderer and run by a very dodgy PR company in Canada. As for George Monbiot, I like that he is now an advocate of nuclear energy but that's about it. He is too sandals and hairshirt for my liking. If he is going to attack someone then we might want to ask what climate qualifications he has, the short answer is fuck all!!

Here is the original article (in Icelandic) which was picked up by IceAgeNow.

Why are you so attached to Ice Age Now?

So when are you going tell us what all the other former architects' views on climate change are???

What about former architectural draftsmen? I was one of those, so according to your standards, my views are worthy of quoting as source material too!!!

Which group will you be quoting next.... building inspectors? Drywall hangers and finishers? Plumbers? Electricians?

Goofball.

So why are you using an extremely dodgy website like DeSmogBlog, run by a PR agency, and quoting George Monbiot who has a degree in zoology? Monbiot also pontificates about economics and he knows fuck all about that as well.

Another point, Moon doesn’t like money launderers, but he’s a Trump supporter, that’s hilarious!

The guy who started DeSmogBlog went to prison, Doris. As for Trump, I have said on numerous occasions, that as a person he is a first class shit. However I like that he is not Shrillary Clinton and most of his policies especially sticking it to the EU and China, North Korea and stopping the EPA from becoming a government branch of Greenpeace. WOTUS was a potential disaster and canning that was profoundly good sense.

They get their "wisdom" from Trump's "gut".

Oh, oh, "fogcatcher" forgot to ban people, but I can show you why he does ban individuals. His source;

"Iceagenow was constructed by a man called Robert W Felix to promote his self-published book about "the coming ice age". It claims that sea levels are falling, not rising; that the Asian tsunami was caused by the "ice age cycle"; and that "underwater volcanic activity - not human activity - is heating the seas".

"Is Felix a climatologist, a volcanologist or an oceanographer? Er, none of the above. His biography describes him as a "former architect"

https://web.archive.org/web/2015103...nvironment/2005/may/10/environment.columnists

No, the WP, NYT, BBC, nor Guardian will report this "remarkable event" cause its' source is a nut case

No didn't forget and as usual you behave like an arsehole. The original source for the news about those glaciers in Iceland is an Icelandic magazine. Now you'll moan and groan that I'm calling you names again, but that's because you're a fucking cunt par excellence. Here I am in Manchester talking to a geriatric Septic, waiting for a plane to Dubai. You can be sure that you'll always be on my ban list from now on, you can depend on it.

"Icelandic magazine?" As best one can tell the only source mentioned is "Christian" from "Ice Age Farmer," which seeminly is a self promoting podcast

And now I'm a whatever cause I point out the shortcomings of your posts? It is so easy given that the majority of what you post is something you copied and pasted off of a recognized climate change denier, or, an individual as "Robert Felix," who has little creditability to be commenting on climate change.

And if that is not weak enough, as I've noted before, you create a false paradigm, as if one article balances or invalidates all the umpteen reports of the contrary

Just pointing out your shortcomings, not my fault you can't recognize reality

God you're a seriously dopey fucker, I even posted the link, you dozy cunt. Use your new found skills to translate it with Google Translate!!
Here are the first few paragraphs, now fuck off and bother some other poor cunt!!


The largest glaciers in the country remained in place and even expanded in the last twelve months, from autumn to autumn, according to the latest measurements. This is the first time in a century that the Icelandic glaciers do not deteriorate. A glacial specialist considers this a natural deviation from global warming that can be seen by colder waters south of the country. This was stated in the news Stöðvar 2.

The performance of the Icelandic glaciers is a strong indicator of climate developments in Iceland. The glacial investigators of the University of Iceland Earth Sciences Institute conducted an annual survey on Vatnajökull and Langjökull, and now the results of these two largest glacier areas
