If the Artic is warming can we assume the ice is melting on it’s own. So why do we need three bemouth icebreakers to plow through the ice choked waters?

This article is - among other things - Global Warming propaganda. You are not permitted to question Global Warming propaganda.

“If the Arctic is warming can we assume the ice is melting on its own. So why do we need three behemoth icebreakers to plow through the ice choked waters?”
Because the Russians don’t think the ice is going to be melting. I actually listened to three lectures from their Arctic Institute and they think the ice is going to be thickening, that’s why they’re building ice breakers to keep their northern shipping routes open. The article is misleading.

So the Arctic is warming and they need a much more massive icebreaker ship? Yeah that makes a ton of sense.
