Maybe because it’s a lie. The ice caps are significantly BIGGER this year. A must-visit site, to pass around to everyone you know : http://icecap.us/ (sorry, I’m having trouble making that a hot link). Shows the satellite photos of the ice caps on any two days of your choice, side by side; by default, it shows today and a year ago today.
WE ARE BEING LIED TO, AND WE HAVE TO FIGHT BACK!!!!!!!!
I went to the site ok - pretty interesting, but, I can’t seem to find where one can pull up any 2 days of ones’ choice. I can only find the default (Aug. 2007 vs. Aug. 2008).

Another lie is this silly notion that IF it does get warmer, it will get drier.
For one thing, the icecap.us site mentions this:
“Arable land will turn into desert”: “It will do no such thing. By the Clausius-Clapeyron relation, of which the Brookings Institute has perhaps not yet heard, in warmer weather the space occupied by the atmosphere is capable of carrying near-exponentially more water vapor than in colder weather. This relation establishes scientifically what has long been observed: that, in general, warmer weather is wetter weather.”
This can be confirmed in those climate records I posted earlier: When it gets COLD on a planetary scale, it generally gets dry / dusty. That’s what almost killed off humankind, not so far back. When it gets warm, the Earth usually / generally gets wetter. (Think dinosaurs tromping around in steamy swamps — for the most part, that is. There can and have been exceptions.)
