What scientific projections had both polar ice caps melting by 2010?
They are both melting more quickly than they had been projected to, even just a few years ago.
Antarctica has gone from record large area in just 2014 - to now a record low, just 4 years later.
The Arctic is now open during part of the year, and scientists are starting to map it.

It always takes longer than you expect, even when you take into account Hofstadter's Law.

Trying to forget about al gore and not bothering to check this summers ice melt, or lack of ice melt?
A very inconvenient truth.
The ipcc the only reasonable group has be toning down their fire and brimstone projections in recent years.

August 2018 was the highest August Arctic sea ice extent since 2014.

It was at a record low for June, but than it sank back to 'just' a level in the top 10% percentile.
All good, climate change averted!
While we were having a record heat and drought period.
Nono, that's just weather.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh unsubscribe. No life here.

Those are the excuses I was looking for.
It's cool and wet and fall like here.
I was told man made global warming was supposed to make summer last until November.
I wish man made global warming was real too.
