At this stage Wohlleben says it doesn’t look as if this will break the record ice retreat seen in 2007.

“But it will be close,” she said. No, it won't break 2997.

Not one of natures cycles?
Of course it is.
Let’s talk about the centuries of cold they say it took to make it.

“There are still several weeks to go before the Arctic ice pack reaches its minimum for this year. At this stage Wohlleben says it doesn’t look as if this will break the record ice retreat seen in 2007. “

That means it is getting better, doesn’t it?

Frozen-beeber ping.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Are we avoiding something here? I was “expecting” to see the word “unexpected”!

Damned glad that they found an iceberg the size of Bermuda. Was beginning to worry about environmental surveillance.

This year, the ice seems to be fracturing all over the Arctic

Obama's fault.

“We can’t just sweep it under the carpet and say ‘It’s one of nature’s cycles’”

This doofai need to be beaten over the head with their own words again and again until they recognized them as the words of ignorance that they are.

Repeat after me. "The earth's climate never changes. We've never lost so much ice before."

The earth is over 4 billion years old and these people are impressed when a 5,000yo chunk of ice breaks off.

Why don't they wonder where in the hell the 5,000,000yo chunks are?

“The Ward Hunt is the largest of the remaining ice shelves that have clung to Ellesmere Island for 3,000 to 5,000 years.”

If ice does not break away during summer, then winter growth will accrete and eventually cover the planet. What's with the hysteria?
