Russian Discovery of a 511 Billion-Barrel Oil Reserve in Antarctica: Major Climatic and Geopolitical ImplicationsAccording to reports by Newsweek and The Daily Telegraph, Russian scientists have located a colossal reserve of oil and gas under Antarctica’s ice, enough to reshape energy markets globally. The estimated quan y of oil—511 billion barrels—is jaw-dropping. To put that into perspective, it’s nearly ten times the total production of the North Sea over the past 50 years, or roughly double the known oil reserves of Saudi Arabia, the world’s largest oil exporter.
Oh great
Weird that it's under the ice
Why is that weird?
Supposed to be gone by now
Jesus why do you act this stupid?
Are you trying to impress other stupid people?
Said no one
Snake Boy might be referring to the peak oil hypothesis. Afaik it never predicted that we'd run out of oil.
I guess. I don't know anyone that said we'd be out of south pole ice by 2024
That's one of the weird things, the so-called "climate alarmists" of the recent past have been conservative -- estimates well short of measured short-term change. Currently, we're ahead of schedule heat-wise.
the models turned out to be very conservative
https://www.journee-mondiale.com/en/...oastal-cities/“We’re witnessing ice dynamics that simply shouldn’t happen on these timescales,” explains Dr. Amelia Chen, glaciologist with the International Polar Research Consortium. “The acceleration pattern suggests we’ve potentially crossed a critical threshold that our models didn’t anticipate until the 2040s.”
Who cares... been hearing the same since I was a child. No one cares!

Antarctica has gained ice in recent years, despite increasing average global temperatures and climate change, a new study finds.
Using data from NASA satellites, researchers from Tongji University in Shanghai tracked changes in Antarctica's ice sheet over more than two decades. The overall trend is one of substantial ice loss on the continent, but from 2021 to 2023, Antarctica gained some of that lost ice back.
However, this isn't a sign that global warming and climate change have miraculously reversed. Picture a long ski slope with a small jump at the end. That's what a line through the Antarctic ice sheet data looks like when plotted on a graph. While there have been some recent ice gains, they don't even begin to make up for almost 20 years of losses.
Most of the gains have already been attributed to an anomaly that saw increased precipitation (snow and some rain) fall over Antarctica, which caused more ice to form. Antarctica's ice levels fluctuate from year to year, and the gains appear to have slowed since the study period ended at the beginning of 2024. The levels reported by NASA thus far in 2025 look similar to what they were back in 2020, just before the abrupt gain....
Climate change doesn't mean that everywhere on Earth will get hotter at the same rate, so a single region will never tell the whole story of our warming world. Historically, temperatures over much of Antarctica have remained relatively stable, particularly compared to the Arctic, which has cooked four times faster than the rest of the globe. Antarctica's sea ice has also been much more stable relative to the Arctic, but that's been changing in recent years.
In 2023, Antarctic sea ice hit record lows, which researchers concluded was extremely unlikely to happen without climate change. Meanwhile, global sea ice cover is consistently dropping to record lows or near-record lows, while global temperatures are consistently at record or near-record highs.

YEAH BUT WE HAD SNOW IN SAN ANTONIO DET ONE TIME THIS YEAR LOL AT GLOBAL WARMING HAND WRINGERS
Trump degrading gold standard US public data by subjecting it to political vetting -- or firing the people who do the measurements for political reasons -- is a hideous own goal and will be multidimensionally costly.
https://www.science.org/content/arti...e-measurementsFor nearly 4 decades, researchers have tracked one of the most prominent harbingers of global warming—dwindling Arctic sea ice—with data from aging weather satellites run by the U.S. military. But this continuous record is now at risk, after the Department of Defense (DOD) quietly told climate scientists it would be “deprioritizing” access to the data. The move comes as Arctic sea ice approaches a possible new record low.
“The [satellites] are up there and functioning,” says Walt Meier, a remote-sensing scientist at the U.S. National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC). “But we’re not getting all the data anymore, at least regularly.”
