The amount of Arctic sea ice hasn't really changed over the last 11 years.

I remember “tipping points” from fifty years ago. Thirty years ago. Twenty years ago. TEN years ago.

Still waiting.

***“The disappearance of summer sea ice in the Arctic is one of the first landmines in this minefield,***

Is the North West Passage(Arctic route shipping lanes) now open?

OMG! the sky is falling, the sky is falling!

They have been saying this same sh*t for the pas 40 years. It’s irreversible. Even though there has been several ice ages with warming periods in between. How did those waring periods happen when there were no SUVs around nor any coal fired utilities. blatant stupid crap made for our gullible college students.

For years explorers searched for a northwest passage. About time we found it!

>>None of these environmentalist wackos ever mention the Medieval Warming Period, circa 1400’s, when the Earth was six degrees warmer than today and the Arctic Ice cap melted.<<

I’m wondering about Greenland and the Vikings. If it was warmer, and the glaciers were melting, Greenland would turn pretty damn green from all the meltwater runoff during that period.

The melting of sea ice happens every year for very many years, and it won’t make the sea levels rise.

I thought LSD use really tapered with the demise of the Grateful Dead, I guess there is nothing better to do when you are a “climate scientist”

and even with the “disappearance of summer sea ice” they have yet to open a northern passage?

In another five years they'll start calling it "Climate Redistibution."

If it is to late then not to worry.

I did not see any green grass and trees when the Top Gear guys went to the north pole.

I’ve always said, I doubt they called it Greenland because it was covered in snow and ice.
