Seismic shifts in human consciousness actively happening -- eyes and minds are opening all around, and conversations are happening, where there was before no receptivity! Record colds, record snows, global temps dropping. Yet the media flogs the dead horse of Global Warming and now publicly advances geoengineering . It will get stranger yet. And you must prepare.

According to NASA, the increased rate of thickening of sea ice in the Arctic is due to Global Warming.

Wintertime Arctic Sea Ice Growth Slows Long-term Decline: NASA

Dec. 7, 2018

New NASA research has found that increases in the rate at which Arctic sea ice grows in the winter may have partially slowed down the decline of the Arctic sea ice cover.

As temperatures in the Arctic have warmed at double the pace of the rest of the planet, the expanse of frozen seawater that blankets the Arctic Ocean and neighboring seas has shrunk and thinned over the past three decades. The end-of-summer Arctic sea ice extent has almost halved since the early 1980s. A recent NASA study found that since 1958, the Arctic sea ice cover has lost on average around two-thirds of its thickness and now 70 percent of the sea ice cap is made of seasonal ice, or ice that forms and melts within a single year.

But at the same time that sea ice is vanishing quicker than it has ever been observed in the satellite record, it is also thickening at a faster rate during winter. This increase in growth rate might last for decades, a new study accepted for publication in Geophysical Research Letters found.

This does not mean that the ice cover is recovering, though. Just delaying its demise.

"This increase in the amount of sea ice growing in winter doesn't overcome the large increase in melting we've observed in recent decades," said Alek Petty, a sea ice scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and lead author of the study. "Overall, thickness is decreasing. Arctic sea ice is still very much in decline across all seasons and is projected to continue its decline over the coming decades. "

...

It seems counterintuitive: how does a weakening ice cover manage to grow at a faster rate during the winter than it did when the Arctic was colder and the ice was thicker and stronger?

"Our findings highlight some resilience of the Arctic sea ice cover," Petty said. "If we didn't have this negative feedback, the ice would be declining even faster than it currently is. Unfortunately, the positive feedback loop of summer ice melt and increased solar absorption associated with summer ice melting still appears to be dominant and continue to drive overall sea ice declines."

IPCC climate confab seeks to stampede the world into adopting destructive energy policies

Any blizzards that blanket Poland this winter can't compare to the massive snow job climate campaigners are trying to pull off.

Some 30,000 politicians, activists, computer modelers, bureaucrats, lawyers, journalists, renewable energy sellers and a few scientists are in Katowice, Poland December 2-14, for another Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change conference. Four issues will dominate the agenda.

* Proclaim that humanity and planet face existential cataclysms, unless fossil fuel use and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are slashed to zero by 2050 - to "prevent" average planetary temperatures from rising more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 F) above what they were in 1820, when the Little Ice Age ended and the modern industrial era began.

* Finalize 300 pages of "guidelines," to implement the Paris climate agreement - by driving the switch from coal, oil and natural gas to wind, solar and biofuel energy.

* Reach a binding agreement that wealthy countries (excluding China and other newly rich nations) must transfer at least $100 billion annually to poor countries.

* Ensure "transparency" on discussions, disclosures and treaty compliance.

This entire agenda deserves skepticism and ridicule.

A volcano in northeastern Tanzania is showing signs it may erupt.

The Ol Doinyo Lengai - called as the 'Mountain of God' by the Masai people - is the only known active volcano with a type of lava that can move faster than a person.

It's now threatening nearby villages and three major sites of early human development.

Al Jazeera's Catherine Soi reports from the foothills of Ol Doinyo Lengai.

The Robeson County Sheriff said an elderly woman was killed Monday night after a dog attack in the 2200 block of Olivet Church Road in Marietta.

Sheriff Burnis Wilkins said deputies found the woman dead outside near the roadway and two children badly hurt.

The sheriff said four Rottweilers were shot by deputies who were under attack while trying to render aid.

Originally, officials said the dogs were Pit Bulls, but later determined they were Rottweilers.

Six people including four pupils at one school died after they were struck by lightning over the weekend.

The fatalities were recorded in Matabeleland South's Umzingwane District and in Chinhoyi.

The Civil Protection Unit (CPU) has said communities should be empowered with scientific knowledge about lightning strikes to save lives.

The Meteorological Services Department had predicted last week that there would be heavy rains coupled with violent thunderstorms.

Disaster officials in Vietnam say that at least 2 people have died in flash floods that have affected central parts of the country over the last few days.

The victims died in Quang Tri Province on 08 December after they were swept away by flash floods triggered by prolonged downpours, according to Vietnam's disaster agency, the Central Steering Committee on Natural Disaster Prevention and Control.

The disaster agency also said that flooding had damaged around 4,000 houses, including 2,052 in Binh Dinh, 730 in Nghe An and 544 houses in Quang Tri. Around 400 families have evacuated their homes in Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh.

At least three people have been killed and hundreds of thousands were without power as a heavy snowstorm slammed into south-eastern US states.

Snow, sleet and freezing rain battered states from Georgia to West Virginia with temperatures expected to plummet further, bringing more treacherous conditions.

The storm has been blamed for at least three deaths in North Carolina and a state of emergency has been declared in the region amid the extreme weather.

Thousands of flights were cancelled across the region, and scores of schools, businesses and government offices were closed as the severe conditions worsened on Monday.

Winter Storm Diego dumps a years worth of snowfall in a single day in the South East USA, hundreds of thousands without power, while in Europe blizzards rage as an extra tropical low collides with a cold air front dumping three feet plus of snow across France, Italy, Austria, and Russia with its own blizzard burying herds of animals. Interestingly the global main stream media does not want to talk about low solar activity as a possible cause for the extreme weather as predicted by solar forecasters to start now. 2+2 =3.33 in the world of mind control.

The United States Geological Survey reports a preliminary magnitude 7.3 earthquake struck near Bristol Island, South Sandwich Islands on Tuesday.

The quake hit at 12:26 AM local time at a depth of 176 kilometers.

There was no initial word on damage or injury resulting from the quake. More information on this earthquake is available on the USGS event page.
