ANTARCTICA – UNDATED:***EXCLUSIVE*** An iceberg floating off the Western Antarctic peninsula, Antarctica, Southern Ocean. Humans may have spent thousands of year perfecting art and architecture but these incredible photographs of spectacular icebergs show they are no match for nature’s grand designs. Captured off the Western Antarctic peninsula the colossal ice carvings have been whittled away by biting polar winds, water, and chilling sub-zero temperatures to form incredible mega structures that take the breath away. In the vast array of jaw-dropping shapes some icebergs feature towering pillars of ice while others appear to have had bridges and tunnels masterfully bored into their huge floating masses. Some even take on the form of gigantic frosty bridges of ice and snow with intricate ‘arches’ carved out by the harsh Antarctic conditions. Photogrpaher Steven Kazlowski, 40, witnessed the amazing sights as he toured the world’s most southerly continent on a 62-foot engined sailing boat. Against the jaw-dropping Antarctic background each paints a magnificent picture – and even caught the eyes of passing Gentoo penguins and humpback whales.

From NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was away when this was published, so I won\u2019t do a full analysis. There are, however, a few items I wish to highlight:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drought in India:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As far as global food production is concerned, cereal production hit an all time record in 2021, as it did in Asia and Africa. Whether 2.3 billion are facing food insecurity or not, it has nothing to do either with climate change or the weather:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, they claim that crop yields in India suffered because of the drought in spring last year. The reality is that weather is never perfect, and sometimes it is too hot, too cold, too wet or too dry. To cherry pick a couple of months weather and call it climate change is fraudulent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In any event, drought or no drought, both cereal and horticulture products set record high outputs in the July 2021 to June 2022 period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Moreover this year\u2019s spring harvest in India is expected to be at or close to record levels, following a plentiful monsoon last summer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floods, Droughts & Heatwaves<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report is, of course, full of weather disasters, to give the impression that they are getting worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The reality is somewhat different, with the number of deaths from natural disasters in 2022 amongst the lowest on record:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Antarctic Sea Ice<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/nsidc.org\/data\/seaice_index<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the claim of record low sea ice, the WMO fail to point out that the long term trend is flat, and that Antarctic sea ice extent reached record highs just a few years ago. Was that due to global warming as well?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is clear from the data that there are often wild swings in sea ice extent form year to year, so plainly there are natural factors at work here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Climate Change Continues To Advance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to the WMO:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From mountain peaks to ocean depths, climate change continued its advance in 2022,<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
