Global Warming? Arctic Ice at Highest Level for 21 Years

One of climate alarmists’ favorite predictions is that the Arctic is losing its ice due to global warming, something elites have claimed for decades. New data shows, however, that Arctic ice is actually increasing!

Climate has always changed and will continue to do so until the real apocalypse (not the fake one climate alarmists have been predicting as imminent for decades). With more than 50 years of failed climate change predictions behind them and a track record of consistent and total untrustworthiness, you’d think that the doom prophets would have given up. Then again, climate change is a convenient way for the greedy to enrich themselves (like former Vice President Al Gore) and for power-hungry politicians to take away rights and liberties while claiming a moral and physical necessity.

Climate Change Dispatch, which also provided graphs of data, reports:

Some alarmist scientists claim it’s the hottest year on record, yet Arctic sea ice for this date stands at its highest level in 21 years.

This year’s reading – up to January 8 – has now far exceeded the average for the years 2011-2020, also exceeds the average for the years 2001-2010, and points directly upwards [regarding] the years 1991-2000…Much like Greenland, the Arctic continues to defy the dogmatic prophecies of the AGW party; and the party has long needed a time machine to confirm its hopeless predictions: “Ice-free in summer by 2014”…

The latest update shows the tide seems to have turned for Arctic sea ice, especially this season, which has seen the largest extent in 21 years (since 2003).

This is the brainwashing by contradiction technique.

The victim loses the capacity to think at all—short circuits the brain.

Yup- the left are not dummies- they know how to brainwash/gaslight like noone else can

Isn’t it interesting how they have the sea ice range average pegged to the solar minimum which peaked in 1979, during which the media was crowing about a new ‘ice age’?

But it's still climate change, see?

They will fine a reason for this increase and it will be related to global climate change caused by man burning fosil fuels, another 50 million grant money should help them continue their great work

Quickly, John Francois Kerry has to change his speeches to the oncoming Arctic Ice Age...

Bump!

Then how can https://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/ state: Average Arctic sea ice extent for December 2023 was 12.00 million square kilometers (4.63 million square miles), ninth lowest in the 45-year . Sea ice extent increased by an average of 87,400 square kilometers (33,700 thousand square miles) per day, markedly faster than the 1981 to 2010 average of 64,100 square kilometers (24,700 square miles) per day (Figure 1b). After a delayed start to the freeze-up in Hudson Bay, sea ice formed quickly from west to east across the bay, leaving only a small area of open ocean near the Belcher Islands at month’s end. In the northern Atlantic, sea ice extent remained below average extent, as has been typical for the past decade.
