Frostbite ends Bancroft-Arnesen trek
A North Pole expedition meant to bring attention to global warming was called off after one of the explorers got frostbite. The explorers, Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen, on Saturday called off what was intended to be a 530-mile trek across the Arctic Ocean after Arnesen suffered frostbite in three of her toes, and extreme cold temperatures drained the batteries in some of their electronic equipment.
Moonbats. Arctic. Mid-Winter. Frostbite.
Could there be any other result?
Moonbats never let reality get in the way of their fondest fantasies.
They were experiencing temperatures that weren't expected with global warming," Atwood said. "But one of the things we see with global warming is unpredictability".
Naturally. Severe cold is a sure symptom of gerbil worming.
I think a wake up call is in order.
Which brings us to the comment of the day from ErnieG
They probably had to abandon their sunscreen and scuba gear, too. What a waste.

OMG!
After posting my snarky comment about scuba gear, I went back and read
the news item. To demonstrate that the ice is melting and we’re all
gonna die, they were actually planning to don wet suits and go
swimming.
These people are dumber than a Yugo full of anvils.
