L. Graham Smith provides some useful analysis and commentary from an article originally published over at Anthony Watt’s blog on research that indicates the Arctic may have had less ice several thousand years ago.  The findings, if true, would strike another blow to the big bear that is global warming.  And while researchers blame what happened there on climate factors that differ from what’s happening today, it still makes one wonder if what is supposedly happening today really is man-made or just another natural cycle.

(H/T:  Watts up with That).  It seems the global warming activists have yet another problem on their hands:  that darn Arctic sea ice just keeps accumulating, even though the planet is near the tipping point in the fight against global warming.  Arctic sea ice is now 28.7% higher than it was just one year ago and, with autumn just under way, we could be headed for an extremely rapid ice build at the pole.  If you recall, scientists predicted that there was a 50% chance that the Arctic would be …

As always, Anthony Watts has provided excellent scientific details around climate change.  In this post, Watts explores the recovering sea ice with a graph that shows how 2007 was worse than 2008 and that this year has the potential to be recovering much more quickly than in previous years.
Check out my Arctic Ice Fact Check article from last month to see the scientific predictions on arctic ice loss and the painful reality - well, painful if you were the scientist making the predictions.

Maybe there is record Arctic ice melt after all.  Since ice measurements have only been occurring by satellite for the last 29 years, I’d say the environmentalists and global warming hoaxers have little to no historical record on which to base their comparisons.  In fact, Read More: GlobalWarmingHoax.com studied the temperature data from 2007 and it to be relative to temperature data prior to 1960.  So, sure, there may be record ice loss.  But it’s like saying you have a bad driving record after an accident on your first day on …

Back on June 27th, the news media predicted a greater than 50% chance that the Arctic would be completely ice free this summer.  Now that summer is effectively over for the Arctic and cooler temperatures are prevailing, let’s take a moment to see what really happened this summer.  NewsBusters wraps this up nicely, reporting that 1.74 million square miles of ice cover still exists in the Arctic, which makes the scientific predictions off by precisely 1.74 million square miles.  Close, but not close enough!

Speaking of Time Magazine, they’ve now jumped ship and are reporting on global warming…in the Arctic…where ice has been refreezing at a record rate… Look, if you have no choice but to go to a location where the opposite of global warming is happening, it’s probably not happening.

Arctic ice is nearly back to normal levels. Antarctic ice has grown by 30%. The northern hemisphere has more snow cover than since 1966. So why are the environmentalists still crowing about global warming? You’s think they’d be quiet once proven wrong.
