Record High Antarctic Ice Levels Ignored by Media

NewsBusters reported Sunday that the media's fascination with record low ice in the Arctic ignored history while relying on satellite data that's only been around since 1979.
At the same time, the press have totally boycotted news from the Southern Hemisphere where ice and snow levels are currently at their highest since data have been collected.
Pretty convenient wouldn't you agree?
Meteorologist Joe D'Aleo wrote at IceCap Tuesday :
" While the news focus has been on the lowest ice extent since satellite monitoring began in 1979 for the Arctic, the Southern Hemisphere (Antarctica) has quietly set a new record for most ice extent since 1979. "
Yet, that's not all the media are hiding from you about this region:
While the Antarctic Peninsula area has warmed in recent years and ice near it diminished during the Southern Hemisphere summer, the interior of Antarctica has been colder and ice elsewhere has been more extensive and longer lasting, which explains the increase in total extent.

Some band of evil conservatives must have "tilted" the earth.

Didn’t Albert predict pretty much the same thing about ten years ago?

Some band of evil conservatives must have "tilted" the earth.Or, it's a result of cyclical changes in the Earth's atmosphere/orbit that we aren't aware of due to our puny existence on Earth.

It’s worst than we thought. Man-caused Climate Change is casusing Global Warming in the Northern Hemisphere and Global Cooling in the Southern Hemisphere!

Lots of changes in how the environment is regulated since 1970....I'm just sayin'.
