And yet there is a note of sorrow in the plaintive gurgle of our anonymous unwashed hippy. <br />It seems to be lamenting the health of yon Alpine glacier. <br /><br />A genuine concern troll would try and paint this as a successful outcome of <a href="http://assets.panda.org/downloads/wwfeapbulletin0505.pdf" rel="nofollow">Austrian glacier plasticwrap</a> (pdf/WWF warning).<br /><br />Oops, the WWF says Austrians are scrapping enviromental impact assessments.<br /><br /><i>From now on Austrian law will not prescribe<br />an environmental impact assessment<br />(EIA) for some categories of<br />projects as it did so far. The EIA will be<br />replaced with a <b>simpler, faster procedure</b><br />aimed at assessing the specific<br />project. On the base of this "quick and<br />dirty" evaluation, the states governments<br />will be <b>free to decide</b> whether<br />or not an environmental assessment is<br />needed. This new procedure <b>will not<br />permit environmental organizations<br />and public interest associations</b> to<br />appeal or object: <b>only directly concerned<br />municipalities</b> will be entitled to<br />start legal action against such projects.</i><br /><br />I guess Austrians are tired of Anonymous bullshit from commies pretending to care about the environment also.papertigerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05233780822178325215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142988674703954802.post-65202320293894504142010-03-18T18:07:10.287-07:002010-03-18T18:07:10.287-07:00Anonymous: I have to disagree.

The second photo comes from the pdf file from the service monitoring the glaciers I linked to above and is labeled by them as the Hintereisferner glacier. Take a look at slide #4 which maps out the 2 glaciers and you will find that the photos were taken in similar (not precisely) the same locations. Look at the relative size and profiles of the peaks in the center, the slope on the lower left, the ridge on the right, and compare to the map in slide #4 and then if you can show me on slide #4 any other possible place this photo could have been taken I'll listen.MShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714540297202434542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142988674703954802.post-13550591716791010502010-03-18T17:29:43.168-07:002010-03-18T17:29:43.168-07:00You should go back to the Hintereisferner to revis...You should go back to the Hintereisferner to revisit the place. The second photo (in color) is not taken at the same place as the black and white. <br /><br />Also, your findings are contradicting with the Hintereisferner Glacier web's site. I think someone gave you a bus ride and you forgot to check where it was going. But obviously you've be misled on that one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142988674703954802.post-71761638838379028702010-03-18T09:44:27.932-07:002010-03-18T09:44:27.932-07:00I thought you might enjoy this post from my blog f...I thought you might enjoy this post from my blog from January:<br /><br />Mother Nature Network’s cherry-picking of Matterhorn photos fails miserably in their effort to debunk Glaciergate<br /><br />http://algorelied.com/?p=3564Klockarmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09779651919505379121noreply@blogger.com
