## Chapters 1–10 of 10

### Sea Level Rise, Barometric Pressure Metrics, Hurricane Categories

- **Episode:** [1702: Sloppin' Hopper](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1702-sloppin-hopper.md)
- **Published:** 2024-10-10
- **Time:** 25:13–28:47
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1702-sloppin-hopper/chapter/sea-level-rise-barometric-pressure-metrics-hurricane-categories.md

Climate scientists claim that melting ice sheets in Greenland are contributing to rising sea levels and higher storm surges in the Gulf of Mexico. There is a noted shift in meteorological reporting toward using millibars instead of inches for barometric pressure to make data seem more dramatic. Additionally, the wind speed ranges for Saffir-Simpson hurricane categories are scrutinized for being inconsistent, particularly the 27-mph range assigned to Category 4 storms.

### Antarctic Sea Ice, British Antarctic Survey, Climate Modeling

- **Episode:** [1662: Rousting Granny](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1662-rousting-granny.md)
- **Published:** 2024-05-23
- **Time:** 1:04:25–1:09:15
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1662-rousting-granny/chapter/antarctic-sea-ice-british-antarctic-survey-climate-modeling.md

Caroline Holmes of the British Antarctic Survey reports that Antarctic sea ice reached record lows in 2023, an event her team calculates would only occur naturally once every 2,600 years. Critics argue that Antarctic ice levels are highly variable and that computer simulations are being used to force a link to human-caused climate change. The discussion questions the validity of these long-term models and the funding behind them.

### Polar Bear Attack in Alaska, Climate Change Narrative

- **Episode:** [1522: Boiling Ocean](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1522-boiling-ocean.md)
- **Published:** 2023-01-19
- **Time:** 34:34–36:06
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1522-boiling-ocean/chapter/polar-bear-attack-in-alaska-climate-change-narrative.md

A rare polar bear attack in the village of Wales, Alaska, resulted in the deaths of a woman and a young boy. Media reports and experts attributed the encounter to decreasing sea ice, which supposedly forces bears further inland. The hosts express skepticism toward the immediate linking of this specific tragedy to the broader climate change narrative.

### IPCC Special Report, Monaco Ocean Cryosphere Findings

- **Episode:** [1176: Soest Piet](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1176-soest-piet.md)
- **Published:** 2019-09-29
- **Time:** 13:39–18:01
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1176-soest-piet/chapter/ipcc-special-report-monaco-ocean-cryosphere-findings.md

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a special report on the ocean and cryosphere following a meeting in Monaco. The report claims with "very high confidence" that ice sheets are shrinking and ocean warming has doubled since 1993. Critics argue the terminology of "confidence levels" indicates the findings are based on consensus opinions rather than absolute scientific facts.

### Arctic Warming Report, 1922 Climate Predictions

- **Episode:** [1159: Showly](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1159-showly.md)
- **Published:** 2019-08-01
- **Time:** 1:53:28–1:56:21
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1159-showly/chapter/arctic-warming-report-1922-climate-predictions.md

A report from November 1922 published in the Monthly Weather Review described radical changes in the Arctic, including disappearing icebergs and rising water temperatures. The text predicted that the ice melt would soon make coastal cities uninhabitable. The hosts use this to argue that dire climate predictions have been a recurring theme for over a century.

### Antarctic Ice Growth, NASA Study

- **Episode:** [771: Hunger Winter](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/771-hunger-winter.md)
- **Published:** 2015-11-05
- **Time:** 1:40:40–1:45:40
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/771-hunger-winter/chapter/antarctic-ice-growth-nasa-study.md

A new NASA study reveals that the Antarctic ice sheet is gaining more ice than it is losing, contradicting previous reports from the IPCC. The hosts highlight the media's tendency to ignore this data while continuing to report on melting ice in the Arctic and Greenland to support the global warming narrative.

### Antarctic Ice Sheet Melting and Sea Level Rise

- **Episode:** [617: Climate Chaos](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/617-climate-chaos.md)
- **Published:** 2014-05-15
- **Time:** 1:51:29–1:54:48
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/617-climate-chaos/chapter/antarctic-ice-sheet-melting-and-sea-level-rise.md

A NASA-participated report on the "unstoppable" melting of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is discussed. While the report warns of a four-foot rise in sea levels, the hosts point out that the projected timeframe is 200 to 500 years. They compare the media's handling of the story to Michael Crichton's "State of Fear," arguing that the long-term nature of the threat is being used to create immediate panic.

### Antarctic Ice Sheet and the "Unstoppable" Melting Narrative

- **Episode:** [617: Climate Chaos](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/617-climate-chaos-2.md)
- **Published:** 2014-05-15
- **Time:** 1:51:29–1:54:48
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/617-climate-chaos-2/chapter/antarctic-ice-sheet-and-the-unstoppable-melting-narrative.md

The hosts discuss a NASA-participated report claiming the melting of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet is "unstoppable." They point out that the "rapid" sea level rise predicted would actually take 200 to 500 years, comparing the alarmist media coverage to Michael Crichton's novel "State of Fear."

### Jet Stream Shifts and Arctic Sea Ice

- **Episode:** [499: Spam Horse](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/499-spam-horse.md)
- **Published:** 2013-03-28
- **Time:** 2:43:14–2:47:30
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/499-spam-horse/chapter/jet-stream-shifts-and-arctic-sea-ice.md

A BBC report explains the unusually cold spring weather in Europe as a result of the jet stream shifting south. A meteorologist attributes this shift to the reduction of Arctic sea ice and climate change. The hosts remain skeptical of the "global warming" narrative, especially as the UK faces record low temperatures and potential gas shortages.

### Arctic Sea Ice Sensor Errors, Bloomberg Ownership

- **Episode:** [74: Enter Colorado](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/74-enter-colorado.md)
- **Published:** 2009-02-22
- **Time:** 49:50–51:48
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/74-enter-colorado/chapter/arctic-sea-ice-sensor-errors-bloomberg-ownership.md

Faulty sensors led to a mis-measurement of Arctic sea ice by approximately 500,000 square kilometers. The hosts also briefly discuss the ownership status of Bloomberg and whether Michael Bloomberg intends to buy back the company.
