Antarctica 2.0 - 16

Fig. 1 Recent Antarctica Ice Shelf History
Once upon a time detractors thought that this Dredd Blog series was mythical.

The graph at Fig. 1 shows that to the contrary it was prescient as was pointed out "before the blue line" in that graph existed.

Sometimes Dredd Blog graphs are printed a bit early eh?

But I digress, so let's review:

"The graphs in today's post illustrate what has been repeated from time to time in this series (Antarctica 2.0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 [& supplements A, B, C, D, E, F], 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12). 

To begin with, the Sahara desert receives more precipitation per square mile than Antarctica, the Earth's largest desert, does.

Many textbooks were written before those factors were known, so they set forth erroneous factors and figures.

Those errors in textbooks and published papers led to various myths about Antarctica, which are still being perpetuated by some in one sector of the media (The Warming Science Commentariat, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)."

(Antarctica 2.0 - 13). And here we are a short time later, and the blue line has appeared below the 2022 black line and the 2021 red line (Fig. 1).

The previous post in this series is here.
