Global warming scare-mongers refuted as Arctic ice growing, on track to be the most ice in 2 decades
Global warming scare-mongers refuted as Arctic ice growing, on track to be the most ice in 2 decadesThe scariest scenario of the global warming doomsayers has been the idea that the melting Arctic ice cap would put coastal cities underwater. For example: 'Scientists in the US have presented one of the most dramatic forecasts yet...
This week, Arctic sea ice is approaching 10,000,000 km2 — the second highest ice extent of any of the last 15 years. Furthermore, the years 2008 and 2005 are on course to be eclipsed in the coming days/weeks, as are many from the early-2000s and mid/late-1990s — this means that 2021 will soon claim the title of 'the highest Arctic sea ice extent of the past two decades' (since 2001). (snip)
According to the latest data from the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI), Arctic sea ice 'volume' has been on something of a tear in recent weeks — it is now tracking above all recent years
But what about the Antarctic ice cap? The South Pole also just witnessed a historically cold winter. As reported last month: "Between the months of April and September, the South Pole averaged a temperature of -61.1C (-78F). Simply put, this was the region's coldest 6-month spell ever recorded, and it comfortably usurped the previous coldest 'coreless winter' on record: the -60.6C (-77F) from 1976 (solar minimum of weak cycle 20)."
In fact, it turns out that, according to a study released a week ago:
Paleoclimate data indicate there was less Arctic sea ice during the pre-industrial period than in modern times, or when CO2 concentrations were 100 ppm lower than today (280 vs. 380 ppm).
Scientists (Diamond et al., 2021) assert that during the 18th and 19th centuries Arctic sea ice extent minimum (September) values averaged 5.54 million km².
Though modern sea ice losses are often characterized as dangerously low, satellite data indicate the 2002-'06 five-year average minimum sea ice extent was 5.92 million km², which is 0.38 km² above the 1700s and 1800s or pre-industrial levels. This would not appear to be consistent with claims of unprecedented sea ice losses in recent decades.

This actually confirms global warming is happening because, the ice melted, so there is more water to freeze causing more glaciers.
We are going to die if we don't give up fossil fuels.

There’s a graph from NASA or NAOA or someone prominent. It shows the square KM of ice extent in the Arctic via satellite. It melts in the summer and shrinks and freezes in the winter and extends. It is a perfect sin wave since the 70s with no upward or downward projection.
There is a footnote which simply reads: “not to be used for long term data interpolation.” Why the hell not?Livin the dream
