The amount of sea ice on Earth has increased by two million km² since the start of 2011. This averages to one Manhattan per hour, and is more than the area of Alaska.

Climate experts at NOAA and NASA say that the oceans are the hottest ever and the ice is disappearing – because they are paid to produce propaganda, not provide factual information.
ROTFLMAO!
The leftards puppet masters love the fact that leftards are too stupid to ever ask to see actual data or to question even the most ridiculous alarmist lie.
The temperature over the North Pole fell sharply.

Huh… apparently WordPress is grabbing a cached copy or something. Trying again with a local copy:

“We’ll take Manhattan,
The Bronx and
Staten Island, too…”
Now throw in Alaska.
Dear me “We’ll HAVE Manhattan…”
I posted this on my FB page, and was accused of posting a cherry pick graph by one of my friends.
He countered with this article from NASA, which conveniently ends in 2013, even though the article was released in 2015.
I had to point out that it would have been more dramatic to start the top graph at the bottom of the trough in 2013.
NASA truly is a fully and shamelessly alarmist organization.

Manhattans?
Damn American units…
How many Wales’s is that/
+1
I don’t know but I for one would trade you your Wale’s for our Manhattan!
I’ve no idea what a Wale is.
But a Manhattan is 1.5 oz of rye whiskey and .5 oz of vermouth poured over crushed ice. (I don’t think the ice is measured with any precision.) It is then strained into a cocktail glass and you pick a cherry to put on top. 🙂
I used to remember when wide wale cords were in.
According to my arithmetic, it’s an ice gain of “only” about 2/3 of a Manhattan per hour:
(2,000,000 sq-km) / (87.46 sq-km/Manhattan) / (4 yrs) / (365.25 days/yr) / (24 hour/day) / = 0.652 Manhattans / hour
