The image below overlays the current NSIDC map (green) on the 1971 National Geographic Map (red.) There is less ice in the western Arctic than 1971, and more ice in the Eastern Arctic

In order to create their fake linear trend graphs, they start right at the peak in 1979, and ignore all the prior data. Junk science doesn’t get any worse than that.
