We are talking about the long term trend : http://nsidc.org/images/arcticseaicenews/20100406_Figure3.png

My point is : let us first have a look at the data. Melting, not melting ? Of what time scale, spring ? 5 years ? 30 years ? Next point, the sentence above is really puzzling. Is really ice melting going to warm Artic ? When I put an ice cube in my whisky, will I expect it to warm ? Up to the moment I read this press article, I ignored that melting ice could warm something. |
