NOAA Says The Arctic Will Be ‘Ice-Free’ In 25 Years
Daily Caller ^ | 5/6/2015 | Michael Bastasch

Posted on 05/06/2015 4:34:47 PM PDT by Crazieman

Climate scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are warning the Arctic may be ice free by the summer by 2040 due to global warming.

Scientists sounded the alarm on a Wednesday press call that comes after the north pole hit record low winter sea ice coverage in February. NOAA’s warning of an ice-free Arctic are consistent with warnings given by other researchers over the past few years.

Scientists warned that Arctic ice will melt faster as temperatures grow hotter, which they warn is harming the region’s ecology — zooplankton are losing fat content which could harm fish in the area that feed on these organisms.

Sounds alarming, but is an ice-free Arctic really something to worry about?

And if you don’t see any progress towards that prediction over the coming years, just remember that it will all melt in 2039. Ignore the trends, little people, and live like its 1800 again.

Yeah, wasn't one of the earlier predictions that the Arctic would already be ice-free by now?

"A series of studies over the past few years have found that Arctic sea ice levels were significantly reduced between 6,000 and 8,500 years ago. There’s even points at which the Arctic may have been ice free during summertime."?

True. Isn't that when the Industrial Age actually started? Man invented the wheel and started burning "fossil fuels." It's been all downhill since then for Mother Earth.

Don’t they realize that their predictions have become a joke? Probably not.

VP Al Gore repeatedly told us it would by 2013... Over and over he said that is what the science has told us, and the science is settled.

So now this?

And what about the ice age scare in the 1970’s? The scientists were telling us over and over, and the media over and over, beware of the coming ice age...

Lot of this 1970’s ice age media and science hype is here:
http://www.climatedepot.com/2009/10/06/dont-miss-it-climate-depots-factsheet-on-1970s-coming-ice-age-claims-2/

....

fears of a coming ice age, showed up in peer-reviewed literature, at scientific conferences, voiced by prominent scientists and throughout the media.

Newsweek Magazine even used the climate “tipping point” argument in 1975. Newsweek wrote April 28, 1975 article: “The longer the planners delay, the more difficult will they find it to cope with climatic change once the results become grim reality.”

But on October 24, 2006, Newsweek admitted it erred in predicting a coming ice age in the 1970’s. (NYT: Obama’s global warming promoting science czar Holdren ‘warned of a coming ice age’ in 1971 – September 29, 2009 & also see: NASA warned of human caused coming ‘ice age’ in 1971 – Washington Times – September 19, 2007 and also see: 1975 New York Times: “Scientists Ask Why World Climate is Changing, Major Cooling May Be Ahead”, May 21, 1975 and see: 1974 Time Magazine: “Another Ice Age,” June 24, 1974

Sure it will...just like Al Gore predicted the Arctic would be melted by 2012.

And I predict the Amish will put a man (or cow) on Mars before NASA does in 25 years.

A carnival fortune teller told me I was going to come in to a large sum of money.

I think I have more faith in the fortune teller than I do the NOAA climate scientist.

At least I have some positive control in my financial future. The climate scientist is absolutely powerless over the future of the Arctic Ocean.
