Paul Beckwith predicted the Arctic would be ice-free in 2013, and now he is warning of accelerated melting timelines. 
Why Arctic sea ice will vanish in 2013 | Sierra Club Canada
There has been no trend in the Arctic sea ice minimum, mean or maximum extent for eighteen years.

How can something melt that stopped existing 11 years ago?
I hope that at least the polar bears won’t go extinct this time.
Beckwith could answer that: (Shrugging) “So I was off by a few decades. And a few million square kilometers of sea ice extent. Nobody’s perfect, not even Climate Scientists.” As I mentioned the other day the Polar Bear population has tripled since 1960 and they were reported to be “thriving” as of 2023, so much so that they have become a dangerous nuisance to the Native people. But in the age of Men Can Get Pregnant Too, thriving is intended to mean “on the verge of extinction.” A few years back the climatistas were posting a photo of an emaciated bear to push the emo buttons of climate fence-sitters. The subtext was that he was starving due to lack of food because sea ice something something. As it turned out the poor bear had cancer
I’d assume that almost all Predators who get old end up starving once they become too old,too slow and too weak for the hunt.
Therefore I wondered why anyone would fall for this BS claim as there were 1000 good reasons(a nail in the paw that slows the hunter down would already be enough) before warming why the Bear was starving.
True for solitary hunter polar and grizzly bears. Also solitary hunter mountain lions. Not true for pack hunting grey wolves or African lions.
Their “predictions “ are always 7 to 10 years out
Most people forget that
35 years of climate doom in the next 5-7 years
And all of the changes occur at the end of the prediction period, 2050, for example. No trends leading up the end are found, it’s all from a “tipping point.” That way, your prediction can never the falsified.
Massive disruption to our society is the whole point of climatism. To be followed by ultra- totalitarian “stability”. That will be submissively accepted by the dumbed-down populace of scrolling crash dummies. After all Massive Disruption could interfere with The Big Game. Or Black Friday, Black Saturday, Black Sunday, cetra, cetra
I guess it’s better than the first plant free world, which is what you get with less than 180 ppm. I used to get upset with the idea of an ice free Arctic, but then I saw the graph where during most of the biosphere’s existence, the CO2 averaged around 3500ppm and the temperature averaged around 73F. So I thought our current state is an anomaly. Normally, there is no natural ice on Earth.
What in return means that life on earth has been adjusted for hundreds of millions of years to way warmer temperatures as perfect climate to flourish.
There is a reason why only a small part of biodiversity can be found in those 50% of earth located around the arctics, while the equatorial 50% are full of them.
(and the most biodiverse country is way warmer than earths average temperature).
But Yeah- Warming Bad.
It is an anomaly and if the fruitbats get their way (they probably will) it will be anomalous on steroids. We must reduce the negligible contribution (3 percent) from all human activity combined of an innocuous trace gas even if it means turning the food producing regions of the world into barren dessicated tundra. Or a smoldering radioactive ruin, whichever comes first. Plants are overrated anyway. If you enjoy camping in the woods as I do we can do it virtually. I’ve tried it, it’s pretty much the same thing. Just light some pine incense. For food in lieu of vegetables we can munch on Soylent Green, now available in a variety of flavors. For protein there is Mr Bills Lab-Grown Mystery Meat Substitute (TM). Utopia I tell you
Fascinates me that they don’t realize that more CO2 means more Plants. And Net Zero would mean Mankind would slowly die off.
I think Paul should buy a nice yacht and sail it through the Northwest Passage … that would prove those skeptics wrong, once and for all.
200 years from now they’ll find his frozen corpse in his cabin if his ship.
Try these guys, they have been sailing Alaska to Greenland this year.
Dodging ice.

Climate insanity: Repeating forecasts over and over again and expecting different results.
Genuine climate deniers: Alarmists who deny making false claims + those who deny colleagues made false claims.
Well said, dm. Some do believe this religion, and it fits.
But I think most repeat the Big Lie over and over, because that’s what works – not because they necessarily believe what they are saying. The funding is provided and they play the easy game, which is to go along. They know that bucking the system may/will bring hardship.
Clown News of the day:
For those who still do not know who really runs the war in Syria(similarities with Ukraine are pure coincidental) :
Propaganda Outlet WSJ
“How a Syrian Rebel went from American jail to Seizing Aleppo”
Now that’s some Jan 6 action, and I wonder if he was in US prison for (wrong)rebellism.
And here is the “rebels” statement:
Mohammed Al Julani
“In the future Syria, we believe that DIVERSITY IS OUR STRENGTH”
We are living in really crazy times when an Al Qaida hardliner speaks woke like every EU politician and Democrat.
I wonder what his bronouns are:CiA and Soros I’d guess.
Considering that he didn’t mention climate change there is at least a 0.000001 %
that he is not a western controlled proxy.
Can’t wait to see him in a rainbow suit.
There is a belief that the current ice age is caused by a reduction in the Earth’s atmosphere, as it is being removed at a faster rate than it is being replenished by vulcanism. The process takes eons, but I find it difficult to believe that a creature the weight of a pteradactyl could possibly fly in the present atmosphere. The real physics of equilibrium temperature distribution would tell us that greater atmospheric depth leads to higher surface temperature. Indeed, the surface temperature on Venus arises from gas undergoing a 400:1 pressure ratio as it circulates. There is no such thing as ‘runaway greenhouse effect’ just ignorant climate scientists who have never heard of diesel engines.
