‘The New York Times used Alaska’s Muir Glacier as “evidence” for global warming without mentioning that it has been melting since at least the 1700s’
According to a 1914 book from the National Geographic Society, the Muir Glacier was 25 to 40 miles further south in 1794 than the early 1900s. United States Geological Society (USGS) supported this account saying in 2012 that the Muir Glacier had melted more than 31 miles “For nearly two centuries prior to 1941.”
