I love it how well worded sentences make it through the
spin.
Antartica will continue to be the planet's ice box for the
next 20 years.
And then what?
It is actually a
very ominous statement. It is like going to see the Doctor and him telling you
that "you will live for 5 more years." [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Twenty years into the future?
It will be much, much longer than that.
For it end in twenty years would take an enormous warming now. If the
temperatures in Antarctica rose to 70 degrees Fahrenheit and stayed there day
and night, I would be surprised if it would melt the Antarctic Ice Cap.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Here's what I took away from it: "NASA is slowly losing satellites, as
they age and die. These satellites must be replaced, so we can continue to
monitor the state of the planet."
If that's Koch's message, then I'm backing it. The science will come out. The
program did a good job in explaining the earth as one giant ecosystem, and how
the weather is a global phenomenon, not a local one.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
