Where is it going?

Ok, so everyone agrees, the ice caps are melting. Record snow falls which will become floods in a month or so, but that don't seem like all of it. My question is where the hell is all going?

Down the drains?

I let my shower warm up for 20 minutes in the morning. I'm sure that's not helping.

I'll be dragging core drills around the Arctic in a week or so,I'll let you know if the 27 feet of permafrost is melting or not.
Or the 10,5 feet of ice.

All the greenhouse gasses from C123 are warming our planet and must be stopped.

Or the 10,5 feet of ice. Buildings in the Yukon are sinking. The lower permafrost is gone or going( I heard that in January before the cold finally came)

Oh ya, forgot about them. Guess I was worrying for nothing

The record snowfalls at some places this year are possibly only isolated events. In Quebec City, before this week's storm, we had received less than half the snow we usually get this year. If there is a trend about snowfall increasing/decreasing extensively in certain areas since the last decades, however, then this is something that should be considered - yet I don't think it's the case.
As for ice caps, well, there's no doubt there. Some parts of South Pole are doing just fine. But yeah, Greenland, parts of Antarctica and the North polar ice do melt really damn fast.
Oh BTW, next time you want to speak of global warming, stick to the last thread that spoke of it - there's always one hanging around the forum.

That's a buncha bull! They build them on stilts for a reason,if you put them at ground level the heat from the floor melts the top layer. Permafrost will allways melt from the top down,maybe 1 inch a year in the summer. Thats about it and the reason for all the water and bugs.So houses and small structures are built on stilts,huge government buildings and shopping malls are built right on the tundra,there sinking for a reason,their own buildings are melting the layer of permafrost that they might have piles driven into to stabilize that building.
What the heck is the lower permafrost? Its just frost,in the geographic center of Canada it is 27 feet deep.
Thats just a bit north of where the Arctic circle starts. and it melts from the top,I have pics.

Oh BTW my question is where is it going? So if you want to read before you speak up it that would be good, or you can go click on the other thread as you like. Either way is fine by me.

I am only telling you what I heard. "even the buildings on the perfrost are begining to sink' (relax I will search for it) I said lower meaning closer to inhabited areas.
Long/lat of 'geographic center' please.

I ask your pardon. It was Alaska, not the Yukon http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4120755.stm
