How do climate doomsayers explain the current state of Arctic ice?
American Thinker ^ | 8/30/2022 | Vijay Jayaraj

Posted on 08/30/2022 10:38:24 AM PDT by whyilovetexas111

With ice coverage for July and August remaining above the ten-year average of 2010–20, the extent of summer sea ice in the Arctic has surprised experts who once predicted that such levels would be impossible.

This stands in stark contrast to the dominant climate narrative that predicts the dwindling of summer ice in the Arctic. Some politicians had even claimed that parts of the Arctic would be ice-free by now.

With the seasonal Arctic melt technically over, it is fair to conclude that the extent of ice in the summer of 2022 has been greater than the ten-year average. On most days in July and August, sea ice levels were above the ten-year average and significantly more than the previous few years.

Tghis theory is not falsifiable and is not science. It is a lib/commie religion and financial scam for Al Gore.

Probably the Bering Strait will freeze over and Russian Tanks will cross.

"What do you mean, the tanks sank? The ice was thick enough to support them!"

"Yes, Mr. Putin, but they ran out of fuel about halfway across and the Americans targeted all the fuel tankers. While the tanks were waiting for fuel the ice melted just enough that they sank through it. Evidently, the Americans learned a lesson from Ukraine."

"And we didn't?"

"You replaced the generals that had learned those lessons."

Yeah, T-64s. It’s all they have left.

It always has been on its way since we are already in an “Ice Age” - The Quatenary. A geologic period characterized by cyclic continental glaciations. For the 20k years or so we’ve been in a warm lull. Someday that will end,its just a matter of when.

Mother Nature hoarding her ice in preparation for global warming.

Makes as much sens as the doomers.

How do climate doomsayers explain the current state of Arctic ice?

The same way they explain everything that does not conform to their narrative:

1) Its Big Oil propaganda

2) The Debate is over

3) 97% Scientists Agree

4) That's just conspiracy theory talk

5) You're not following the science.

etc, etc, etc.

They will not actually care to learn anything new, they already "know" it all.

The new climate change boogie man is the western US drought. Like we never had dustbowl in the ‘30s.

Hurricane season has just head it’s prime time.

If you mean in general, you’re right. Katerina was a rare event like Camila.

Seth Borenstein the non scientist “science writer” for AP who gets it wrong almost every time made up “zombie ice”. He’ll get right on this mystery too, and come up with some lame explanation..

I hate to break this to people, but the extent of ice in the summer correlates with global warming. This used to get me so puzzled by WattsUpWithThat’s reports which would show warmest summers and highest sea ice.

See, they don’t measure sea that is 100% covered by ice. They measure sea that is 10% covered by ice. The warmer the weather, the more the sea ice breaks up *and* scatters. Measure the 100 pack ice, and you’ll get a different picture.

..As humans we relate to smaller timescales, the universe has its own timescale that we cannot comprehend, a lifetime for us in years is only a miniscule moment for the cosmos.

.."Cannot comprehend" is correct...Right up there with "Where does the universe end? How far is a trillion light years? Does the universe end there? I can't wrap my head around that!

Anyone recall when Al Bore claimed there would no longer be Arctic sea ice and the polar bears could become extinct 20? years ago with his stupid movie?

I just read days ago the ice-breaker ships are working overtime to rescue ship/boats in the crushing Arctic sea ice. Some of those trapped vessels have been abandoned, according to various reports. Hey, but it's "science" with Global Warming.

You’re easily gullible. There have been zero measurements of increased global temperatures. None. In fact, DMSP, the ONLY long term temp data, has shown a global cooling. Ice core measurements say 2023 winter is the start of the next ice age.

Global warming/climate change can cause any condition with anything…c’mon man.

Exactly

WhatsUpWithThat is a global-warming-skeptic site. They busted many of the hugest scandals, like the fake hockey stick and “hide the decline.” The warming is slight, about 1/2 degree, according WUWT, after statistical biases are removed. Nothing that could do the horrors attributed to it.

TECHNICALLY, there has never been a project to determine whether the GLOBE is heating. Near-surface DMSP temperatures are up slightly. High-altitude temps are down. This is because radiation reflected by supposedly “global warming” gasses are not warming up the upper reaches of the atmonpshere. Ocean depths measurements which show a tiny, tiny, tiny rise suggest a tiny amount of expansion, so small that it could be explained by movement in the crust.
The only way to actually measure the temperature of the Earth would be to see if it has expanded. Thermometers are based on this same principle that a warming substance expands. I understand that the Earth has, slightly.

Yes, there has, but since the results did not confirm heating the papers were rejected and squashed.

DMSP has measured the Earths atmosphere since the 1960’s, and no warming. I worked with DMSP, USAF.

They don't have to, because "journalists" and politicians will never ask them to.
