| The Real Inconvenient Truth: Arctic Sea Ice Has Grown Since 2012 |
| 2022-09-01 |
| [DailySceptic] Global warming paused, polar bears thriving, more coral on the Great Barrier Reef than you can shake a stick at — it’s been a difficult gig for climate alarmists of late. According to the U.S.-based National Snow and Ice Data Centre (NSIDC), the northern sea route along Eurasia "may not become ice free" this year for the first time since 2007. Preliminary estimates by NSIDC suggest a 30% chance that sea ice will cover five million square kilometres, something that has not happened for eight years. The cooling trend has been apparent for some time. Earlier this year, the Daily Sceptic reported that the coverage of Arctic sea ice was now very close to the 1991-2020 average, well above the 2012 low point and higher in 2021 than the previous year. According to Copernicus, the EU’s weather service, the 2021 March sea ice extent was just 3% below the 30-year average. March is the maximum extent of sea ice in the Arctic. Recent figures show March 2022 was slightly higher. In his recent Global Warming Policy Foundation climate report, Emeritus Professor Ole Humlum noted: "The trend towards stable or higher ice extent at both poles probably began in 2018 and has since strengthened." Observational records of Arctic ice go back to the start of the 1800s, and display moving cycles of both temperature and ice extent.

| #5 Surprise.... yet another climate lie that made certain people (Al G. & Hollywood) $$$ MILLIONS $$$$. Btw:last time I checked 1/2 of the US Southern states were NOT under water as predicted to happen by 2020. |

| #3 Here is the result of the climate change myth: Heat wave prompts Flex Alert for today, request for cutback on electricity usage California's population has doubled but Newsom and the rest of the California Democrats insist on dismantling the state's energy infrastructure. Well, I guess we'll all have to cut back on our energy consumption when the grid fails. |

| #1 Sea Ice comprehensive mapping is here yes, so far surface ice is in good shape but we haven't finished the melting season yet and a high latitude severe storm or two could change things |
