Subject:* Global Warming

The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in
some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a
report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate at Bergen
Norway

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a
radical change inclement conditions and hitherto unheard-of
temperatures in the Arctic zone.

Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as
far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100
meters showed the gulf stream still very warm.

Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and
stones, the report continued, while at many points well known
glaciers have entirely disappeared.

Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic,
while vast shoals of herring and smelts which have never before
ventured so far north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing
grounds. Within a few years it is predicted that due to the ice melt
the sea will rise and make most coastal cities uninhabitable.

apologize. I neglected to mention that this report was from November
2, 1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post -
94 years ago. This must have been caused by the Model T Ford's
emissions or possibly from cattle flatulence?
