“The reality is that global sea ice extent is currently 0.3 million kilometers (116,000 sq miles) ABOVE normal,” says this article on ClimatePatrol.com. That’s GLOBAL sea ice extent.
(Excerpts) – Antarctic sea ice reached record high levels this year. Antarctic sea ice extent broke 20 million kilometers for the first time since satellite recordings began.
But what is the truth behind Arctic sea ice?
Well first off the minimum this year was nearly a tie for the 7th lowest. The difference was so close that you really couldn’t tell just by looking at a graph. So you may be wondering if it really matters if the extent was the 6th or 7th lowest. That in itself doesn’t matter. What the fear mongers will omit from the stories is that since the Arctic sea ice extent bottomed out about 7 years ago, the trend has been upward. Each year seems to improve over the one before it. In fact since the record minimum, the Arctic sea ice extent has increased by approximately 1.6 million square kilometers (617,760 sq miles).
So while you are being deliberately deceived about the health of sea ice, we are here to clear up the deception and provide you with facts. There is no spin. There is no attempt to mislead.
Arctic sea ice extent is 1.2 million kilometers below normal. Antarctic sea ice extend is 1.5 million kilometers above normal. The net global sea ice extent is 0.3 million kilometers (116,000 sq miles) above normal. Arctic sea ice extent has increased significantly since the record minimum.
