"Clearly, we're seeing the ice coverage rebound back to more near normal coverage for this time of year," said Gilles Langis, a senior ice forecaster with the Canadian Ice Service in Ottawa.

It's called Winter, Langis, you idiot!

There's an upside to the extreme cold temperatures northern Canadians have endured in the last few weeks: scientists say it's been helping winter sea ice grow across the Arctic, where the ice shrank to record-low levels last year.

Who decides it's an upside? What if the residents there long to someday plant a citrus tree outside the house? Maybe have a longer baseball season?

Upside is in the eye of the beholder.

What is "normal"? Aren't these scientist aware of cyclical ice ages and interglacial periods?

Has anyone seen the insipid commercial from the World Wildlife Fund (?) with that actress from NYPD Blue?
The polar bears are dying because of global warming! Oh my God!!!!
No pictures of Polar Bears dying. No factual information to back up the claim. Just a smooth talking woman, some Polar Bear video and soft music.
Sounds kind of like the Obama campaign, except for the woman, the polar bears and the music. All that’s left is nothing.

So many people are such worrywarts on the climate issue. I lived in tropical weather for quite a few years and don’t like it all. Dry cold and 40 degree (F) daily temperature variations are very nice.

"Canadian scientists are also noticing growing ice coverage in most areas of the Arctic, including the southern Davis Strait and the Beaufort Sea."

Just Another Inconvenient Fact

Ice is nice.

Do they ever get to the point in the article where they say why ice is nice?

From the part of the article posted, it seems they presume we all know and believe.

These people are total dipshits. I never ever listen to a single thing someone has to tell me about global warming.

Useless hype for cash.

Recent cold snap helping Arctic sea ice, scientists find

Translation...recent findings by scientists who do not have an anti-American bias and agenda are making it harder for us to get into the wallets of American tax payers. The attempts at limiting free speech and thought are becoming increasingly more difficult. It will benefit us at this time, to wait till the Liberal Democratic Party gains control of the United States Government.

"It's nice to know that the ice is recovering," Josefino Comiso, a senior research scientist with the Cryospheric Sciences Branch of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre in Maryland, told CBC News on Thursday.

Nothing like a gubmint hack who works for NASA on your dime and does not recognize that the Universe is not static, and that Earth on that scale is not big enough to be recognized as a speck of errant dust, and this nitwit is talking about a piece of ice.

Well, D U H. Winter. Cold. Freeze. Hello?? Guess you don't have to be a rocket scientist to be a scientist any more.

But according to Global Warming theory, once the ice melts enough the trapped artic waters move down into the warmer southern waters, shutting down the ocean currents, which in turn causes global cooling.

So really what they are saying is any type of weather proves global warming. But in reality it seems the earth has a way of keeping itself in check from getting too hot or too cold.

Scientists find that cold causes ice to form. Amazing.

Here’s what I want to know...
Global warming causes ice to melt, thus threatening Polar Bears with extinction, right?
That’s because the bears need ice to float around on.
And that’s because Polar Bears can only swim about 200 freakin’ miles in open ocean, right?

So, with ice melting, the Polar Bears feel threatened, and the result is their populations are... er... uh... well, they’re growing rapidly, ahem...
But it’s only because they feel threatened with extinction by the melting ice, right?

OK, so here’s my question:
Now that the ice is returning, and the Polar Bears can once again live the life of Riley, just floating around, and not having to swim after their dinners, will they now become fat and lazy, and stop breeding, because, hey, life is good again, right?

In other words, will the return of ice threaten Polar Bears with extinction?
