“Global warming is a scam…. Time will show that fact…”

And even 93% of the world’s ice masses are in on the conspiracy! Damn them!

The warmer surface under the ice shelves cause the ice shelves to lose mass, thus freshening the surrounding ocean and raising the freezing point of the water, which allows sea ice to form more easily

Annnd ice is a good thermal insulator. Annnd, as far as I know, enhanced albido in the higher latitudes does not balance excess solar input in more equitorial regions (even though it is not showing up as increased thermal expansion or warming the top of the troposphere). But wait, there is more: Extra sea ice should be a ‘positive feedback’ to GHG warming.

Because of anthropogenic global warming, we are all going to freeze to death.

Various excerpts were shown around the biology department, and the consensus was that he had to be knowingly lying because no-one could get so many things that badly wrong by accident. I used parts of one chapter as an exercise for my students. I told them they needed to confirm his claims, and they came back to the next class with the claims dismantled….they also were quite surprised he would make claims that were so easy to refute.

I see someone has already posted the Lomberg error website…worth skimming.
