Where was Al Gore When Greenland Got Its Name, II?

Our own McClatchy version of a newspaper has jumped into the climate crisis with both feet, though one is in hot water while the other’s frozen in ice.

With page 1 coverage taking up half that page and almost all of page 2, The Olympian trumpeted every conceivable alleged factoid of Al Gore’s current inconvenient truth. An Al-toid, anyone, or perhaps a Gorefact?

The real inconvenience was buried in one sentence of a sidebar, describing our local neighborhoods as covered in ice 20,000 years ago. Ice 5,000 feet thick!

Thus arises the obvious: without global warming, we would not be here.

Literally.
