Climate Scientists Predict Exact Day When the Arctic Will Go Ice-Free and It’s Sooner Than We Think
Green Matters ^ | Jan 31, 2025 | Green Matters Staff

The European Space Agency revealed that the earth is now 1.5 degrees Celsius warmer than before, and recent assessments have deduced that this change risks crossing delicate climate tipping points. Even minor fluctuations in the planet’s temperature are felt at Earth's extreme poles—the North and South poles. While the drastic implications of global warming in Greenland and the Arctic are not new information, a new study predicted that the latter will be ice-free in three years’ time.

By summer 2027, the Arctic Ocean will witness its first ice-free day at the current pace of greenhouse gas emissions. According to the study published in the journal Nature Communications in December 2024, this “ominous milestone for the planet” will inevitably occur between a period of nine to 20 years after 2023 even if humans decide to modulate greenhouse gas emissions to ideal concentrations. Co-author Alexandra Jahn said, "The first ice-free day in the Arctic won't change things dramatically.” She is a climatologist at the University of Colorado Boulder and an associate professor at the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the institution.

Considering the worst-case scenario, the snow-clad Arctic Ocean will go ice-free within three years. Jahn indicated that while the ice-free Arctic may not be the end of the world, it is evidence that “we've fundamentally altered one of the defining characteristics of the natural environment in the Arctic Ocean, which is that it is covered by sea ice and snow year-round, through greenhouse gas emissions,” per Science Daily.

LOL, so the northwest Passage will be open in the summer of 2027, expect a shipping bottleneck then.

The stinking Russians will be extending its clutching grasp over the pole. Good reason for the USA to acquire Greenland.

Greenland becomes green? It would be like owning Boardwalk & Park place with 2 hotels. Buy it!

It’s always somewhere in the future. The past predictions which failed are forgotten. Not by us but the enviroweenies.

Both Kerry and Gore predicted 2014. It’s later that “we” thought.

Forsooth. We, the only true scientists of the ‘Clan of the Confused’ issue our latest climate change prediction. Naturally, it has a roughly 0.04% chance of coming true.

The source is from China, the massively largest manufacturer of solar and wind energy products (using coal for their factories).

>> 1.5 degrees Celsius warmer than befor

to solve the rate, simply apply the indefinite differential

Will they get fired if their insane predictions are false?

I think we all know the answer to that question.

And if nothing happens, they will start calling it “Climate Stagnation”, and that man is interfering with Climate Change.

They’ll always have their bases covered.

I hate to break this to these folks, but we are in an interglacial warming period.... The temperatures are going to warm, and ice is going to melt, no matter what we do.

The earth is going to get warmer, even if every single human died tomorrow.

For reference:

The “Last Interglacial” is a well-studied example, occurring roughly 130,000 to 115,000 years ago, with warmer temperatures than today.

Agreed. And hat-tip to FReeper Pookie for posting this yesterday morning in his Today's Toons:

Is there a summary anywhere of each claim of the end? When and what date?
