Arctic ice refuses to melt as ordered

"... ice has grown in nearly every direction since last summer - with a large increase in the area north of Siberia. Also note that the area around the Northwest Passage (west of Greenland) has seen a significant increase in ice. Some of the islands in the Canadian Archipelago are surrounded by more ice than they were during the summer of 1980.

Guys, it's no longer global warming. Now it's global climate change.
An increase in the ice shelf is a change and indicative of man's destruction of the environment. Same if it shrinks. They can't lose that way.

Gas prices went up.... Toyota sold some Priuses.... Some people bought bicycles & motorcycles.......The world is safe now......

I forget, in lefty world didn't Bush/Cheney cause gas prices to rise which now in turn has saved our planet as evidenced by the ice increase...... I am so confused... I need Al Gore to tell me what to think.

All of your articles have a common theme, fear over what some moonbat THINKS MIGHT HAPPEN. My article is a little more grounded in fact. I know that may be a term you are unfamiliar with. I hope this helps.

fact (fkt)
n.
1. Knowledge or information based on real occurrences: an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy.
2.
a. Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed: Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact.
b. A real occurrence; an event: had to prove the facts of the case.
c. Something believed to be true or real: a document laced with mistaken facts.
3. A thing that has been done, especially a crime: an accessory before the fact.
4. Law The aspect of a case at law comprising events determined by evidence: The jury made a finding of fact.
Idiom:
in (point of) fact
In reality or in truth; actually.

I think it will progressively become more apparent that we just don't have enough data to assume that global warming exists, much less due to human influences.

The span of time that we have been tracking temperatures is less than a blink of an eye in the grand scheme of world climate change.

The global warming mania isn't very good science. It's a theory, nothing more. But, it makes great media fodder.

I agree, but would not grant the current mania "theory" status; it's certainly a valid hypothesis.

Careful with that "theory" word -- gravity is a "theory" too...

"The author, Steven Goddard, is not affiliated directly or indirectly with any energy industry, nor does he have any current affiliation with any university."

Who is the author? What is his background?

Can someone please post this information.
