1980 was an anomalously high (sea ice extent) year

Claims that Arctic sea ice is disappearing are patently false. There has been no trend in Arctic sea ice extent since the start of MASIE records in 2006.

There also has been no trend in Arctic sea ice volume since 2006.

According to the world’s leading climate scientist, the Arctic is already ice-free.

Meanwhile, our leading experts are warning that we are burning up and Arctic ice is disappearing.

There is no trend in Arctic sea ice volume over the past eleven years.

The animation below shows daily sea ice volume since 2007, animated by month.   The trend in January, June, July, August, September, October, November and December sea ice volume is up.

Almost all melting occurs in June and July. Summer is too short to melt all the ice, particularly since summer temperatures near the North Pole have been running below normal for the past eighteen years. By early August, the sun is too low in the sky to melt much ice near the pole.

The world’s leading climate experts keep predicting an ice-free Arctic.  They have absolutely no clue what they are talking about.

They never learn from their mistakes, and they never stop with their science-free speculation.

The 2018 National Climate Assessment shows a ring of warm water around the Atlantic six years ago, as a “glimpse of climate future.”

The actual climate future shows the exact opposite.  Those warm areas have turned cold.

The world’s leading climate scientists don’t know the difference between climate and weather, and apparently don’t even know how to check what the current weather is.

Steve Goddard on Twitter: “Stunning evidence

The hard truth, as the Carter Administration sees it, is that … the world’s oil would disappear in the first decade of the 21st century.

There has been a large expansion in the area of the Arctic covered by thick sea ice over the past eleven years. Nearly two thirds of the Arctic Ocean is now covered with ice more than two meters thick.

The Washington Post somehow forgot to mention this, and says we are all doomed.
