Remember when the calving of the Petermann Glacier was a sure sign of ‘global warming’? Never mind.

WUWT reminds us of the global warming apocalypse of calving glaciers back in 2010-2012. This was a sign of the end times.

And, inconveniently, and with little fanfare in the media, this happened at the Petermann glacier:

Well, that’s inconvenient.

Oh, critics will say, it’s only one year-to-year comparison. Alright, how about a trend? Surely if observed calving in 2010 and 2012 defines “global warming” action on the glacier, a few years of comparisons would be even better, right?
