Here is yet another example of why global warming proponents have no credibility in my opinion.

Since the late 1960s, much of the North Atlantic Ocean has become less salty, in part due to increases in fresh water runoff induced by global warming, scientists say.

The surface waters of the North Atlantic are getting saltier, suggests a new study of records spanning over 50 years. They found that during this time, the layer of water that makes up the top 400 metres has gradually become saltier. The seawater is probably becoming saltier due to global warming, Boyer says.

In case you haven’t noticed, any time there is any deviation form what is perceived to be normal the global warmitarians reflexively assume that their religion of choice is the explanation.  I don’t deny that man has a negative impact on the environment, but when scientists use global warming as a crutch to avoid determining actual causation it makes me dubious of what might be valid claims.

• It’s bad - must be global warming
• A global warmitarian loses faith
• Politics and science don’t mix
• NASA revises temperature changes - down
• Global Warmitarians flip flop on hurricanes
