    Well that charge is a big unsubstantiated claim with no supporting evidence at this point, unless you find something specific.

    A convenient way to deny what is globally recognized.
    LOL you warmers eat up propaganda like it's candy. All the glaciers were supposed to be gone already according to your propaganda less than 10 years ago, you dumb fuck. Now you want to act like the one time your prediction came true out of a thousand other proclamations, you're suddenly vindicated? LOL you fuckers are insane and dunning kruger allstars all wrapped up in one.

    Ok, first of all, I don’t think these people fully understand how glaciers work. They are almost entirely driven by precipitation, not temperature. The process of ice loss in a polar glacier is mainly two things, with temperature coming in last.

    o Calving into the sea (not applicable on this glacier).
    o Ice loss through sublimation.
    o In some cases, melting due to elevated temperature.

    Al Gore made the mistake of blaming ice loss at Mt. Kilimanjaro on “global warming”, when it turned out to be entirely due to less precipitation, thus allowing the ice to sublimate.

    In the case of Iceland, the glaciers there are dependent on precipitation just like any other glacier, and changes in the North Atlantic Oscillation could easily explain the change in precipitation.

    Then there’s the inconvenient truth that the glacier likely didn’t exist a few hundred years ago, according to a paper by the U.S. Geological Survey:
