No, Greenland is not approaching a melting ‘tipping point’

… study claims Greenland is perilously close to a tipping point that will destabilize the Greenland ice sheet and result in substantial ice melt and sea level rise. The ice sheet’s stability through much warmer temperatures that lasted several thousand years during early human civilization, however, strongly contradicts the assertion.

Even climate alarmists have long acknowledged that temperatures would need to continue rising for many centuries before threatening a substantial melting of the Greenland ice sheet. A new study, however, claims that analysis of fossilized sea shells off of the coast of Greenland shows sustained warm temperatures several hundred thousand years ago indicate Greenland could eventually reach a tipping point of substantial sustained ice loss. Inside Climate News reports the authors of the study claim the sea shells indicate a similar tipping point may be just a few decades away.

…scientists from the Danish Meteorological Institute recently correlated surface temperature readings and ice core data dating back to 1784 and found, astonishingly, that the last two decades of the twentieth century were colder than the previous six. In fact, Greenland temperatures in the 1980’s and 90’s were a full 1.5 degrees Celsius lower than those of the 1930’s and 40’s, thus completely contradicting assertions made by climate change proponents and their modeling
