Leading scientists insist that Antarctica is melting down and will drown us all, while Antarctic sea ice grows to record highs.
Antarctic sea ice extent for August 19 is 18.70 million square kilometers (7.22 million square miles), a record or near-record high level

(Look for some morons to post comments here saying that the colder interior of Antarctica is melting down, even as the warmer oceans freeze.)
McKibben was recently arrested in California at a Anti Keystone pipeline sit in. Can anyone call McKibben a scientist if his mind is so closed that he would lead a sit in protest against fossil fuels.
There are some county cat catchers who could probably arrest McKibben humanely or there is the soft touch SWAT team.
OT I think the Beer lady dropped her portable Bar at the first hole.

It’s staggering, really. George Orwell hit the nail on the head.
WAR IS PEACE
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
smh :/
The magic Antarctic meltdown includes not only the expansion of sea ice during entire satellite era but also falling temperatures at the South Pole. I go into this in greater depth in “Don’t Sell Your Coat.”
It isn’t the extent of sea ice which is a key indicator of climate change. It is the volume of ice.
Actually it is the volume of global warming bullshit.
James caught this…and it’s too funny
Global Warming causes us to have exactly the same amount of ice….

BuBut Steve, the colder interior of Antarctica is melting down, even as the warmer oceans freeze.
No lie, I have literally seen an article argue that more Antarctic sea ice is also proof of anthropogenic global warming. I saw it at Skeptical Science, no less. I’ll see if I can find it so we can all laugh.
Also:
Record low US hurricanes
3 hurricanes have hit during Obama’s term in office, fewest on record. Grover Cleveland had 26 while in office.
Record low US tornadoes:

From the link above: “We are in the middle of a tornado drought, and 2013 is on track to possibly be a record low tornado year, forecasters say.” Lol, it’s a drought, must be because of gwarming!
Record summer cold in many areas in the US, including LA:

Apparently the extent has been above average for 2 years. The first time on the record.
Thing is – it is actually melting.
No, that’s your brain.
Listen you stupid schmucks! The “new” science is that you make Ice Cubes by boiling water!
I am a “respected” scientist! would I lie to you?
