STOCKHOLM (AP) -- A new assessment of climate change in the Arctic shows the ice in the region is melting faster than previously thought and sharply raises projections of global sea level rise this century.
The report by the international Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Program, or AMAP, compiles the latest science on how climate change has impacted the Arctic in the past six years.
A summary of the key findings obtained by the AP on Tuesday shows Arctic temperatures during that period were the highest since measurements began in 1880.

Every spring they talk about the massive melting, then every fall/winter they ignore the massive re-icing.
It’s like they took stupid pills or something.
We have to act now before it's too late!
give it time, soon the regular seasons will be blamed on global warming as the enironmentalists blame polution for the sun being unable to rotait around the earth. (/s)

The NY Times was claiming the same thing back in 1922. Someone on FR used to have a link. I don’t.
This is HORRIBLE! Somebody better get word to China that they’d better stop polluting Gaia (while simultaneously taxing themselves to death)!
They have begun using the Northwest Passage a few years ago. You could only do that with icebreakers before then. Something is melting. Not blaming it on man but things are changing.
More thorazine for the climate alarmist, stat.
For the benefit of students below grade 4 at government schools, and liberals and progressives of any age, all arctic ice is floating. It displaces its total weight. if 100% of it melted, it wouldn't raise sea levels by 1 mm.
Also, if arctic ice is melting, it has ZERO effect on large masses of ice elsewhere.
Put away the stupid computer models, dummies.
Being wrong 100% of the time should be far beyond embarrassing, already.

Here Ya go.
I think.
Make sure your flood insurance premiums are paid: the lies and misinformation are gushing forth, threatening imminent inundation!
How many times did the shepherd boy cry wolf before
the town's people ignored him?

Yes, yes, the Arctic ice is melting.
Something about it being late spring. You know, when the ice begins melting bigtime?
And meanwhile the Mississippi rises, they are talking about a possible 500 year flood. However, sometimes lots of snow falls when the winter temperature is higher, just under freezing instead of subzero. That appeared to be the case with last winters record snows in the mid Atlantic states where it did not get terribly cold.
