December 12, 2007“The Arctic is screaming,” said Mark Serreze, senior scientist at the government’s snow and ice data center in Boulder, Colorado.
This week, after reviewing his own new data, NASA climate scientist Jay Zwally said: “At this rate, the Arctic Ocean could be nearly ice-free at the end of summer by 2012, much faster than previous predictions.”
For the first time, I can reveal exactly what the Arctic is screaming to the experts.

James Hansen : ‘This is the last chance’
6/23/2008
“We see a tipping point occurring right before our eyes,” Hansen told the AP before the luncheon. “The Arctic is the first tipping point and it’s occurring exactly the way we said it would.”
Hansen, echoing work by other scientists, said that in five to 10 years, the Arctic will be free of sea ice in the summer.

The alarming loss of sea ice which has grown worse each summer over the past several decades, has taken a sharp turn for the worse: this year the loss is right in the middle, the most resilient part of the ice cover. This could lead to a completely ice-free Arctic Ocean by September.

NOT!
Poor Paul has developed a really bad case of this:

The Cooling World
Newsweek, April 28, 1975
“The world’s food-producing system,” warns Dr. James D. McQuigg of NOAA’s Center for Climatic and Environmental Assessment, “is much more sensitive to the weather variable than it was even five years ago.”
World Food Production at Risk
In addition to CARVE’s 5-year on-going investigation of the Arctic, the Arctic Methane Emergency Group (“AMEG”), a hard-core group of the world’s most esteemed climate scientists, have sounded the alarm about the dangers of an Arctic meltdown. An announcement on their web site claims: “Governments must put two and two together, and pull out all stops to save the Arctic sea ice or we will starve.”
AMEG’s statement begs the crucial question: Why will loss of Arctic sea ice cause starvation?
Here is AMEG’s answer: The retreat of sea ice in the Arctic is causing a disruption of jet stream behavior, which, in turn, produces weather extremes throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

These Lying Jack’ as have been fearmongering the Food production fore ever.
They desperately try to get it right: How not to meansure temperatures: http://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/08/10/how-not-to-measure-temperature-part-94-maniitsoq-greenland-all-time-high-temperature-rescinded/#more-91374
I think Michael Tobis has bragging rights for the message. He screamed it at Prof. Judith Curry-
“I think Curry should STFU, or at least stick to such matters, if any, where she has reason for confidence in what she says.”

You are mistaken. That was NOT the Arctic screaming.
That was the raw temperature data being tortured into new high readings to hide the decline. And we all know what kind of “adjustments” the so-called climatologists are willing to make to force low-reading data sing soprano!!
(sometimes I have to “adjust” my shorts to prevent screaming)
Just maybe the Arctic is Screaming “I Feel Good!”
