Ice Levels Dramatically INCREASE In Antarctica!

from The Jimmy Dore Show · host Wase History Club

The Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) has historically lost mass, significantly contributing to sea-level rise, with intensified losses in West Antarctica and parts of East Antarctica, particularly from 2011–2020.  However, between 2021 and 2023, driven by anomalous precipitation, the AIS experienced a record-breaking mass gain, even reversing trends in critical glacier basins like Totten, Moscow, Denman, and Vincennes Bay. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss whether all this hullaballoo about climate change and melting ice caps may be so much hot air. Plus segments on Israeli police beating up Hasidic Jews in Jerusalem for protesting the Gaza genocide, Donald Trump signing a ban on gain of function research and former congressman and presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich discussing the condescendingly warmongering ways of Arkansas senator Tom Cotton. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Aaron Maté!
