Last year, experts announced that the Arctic would be ice-free in 2017.
During the winter, they announced that the ice was melting at -30C, and had shrunk to a record low.
Cold air has set in over the Arctic, and there isn’t going to be much more melting this year. It looks like the area of ice in the Arctic will end up about the size of Texas, like it has been in all recent years.

I agree that both journalism and science has reached an all time low. However, with journalism for a long time it has been much lower than would be expected by reasonable professional standards. In the 1970’s the San Jose Mercury News was advocating gun control based on nothing more than antidotal information. They used no real data.
I believe it was in the 1990’s that the nuclear winter theory was created. It was shown to be totally bogus and obviously created with the goal of influencing international negotiations.
I have a lot of education in science. When I started it was pretty clean though nothing is perfect. It is disturbing how corrupt it has become to support political causes.
Al Bore said the polar ice cap would be gone by now and Its Getting Thicker and once that James Hansen wacko claimed a cold snowy winter was becuase of Global Warming and some wackos claimed by now the British Isles would be a series of tiny islands and the New York Slimes(All the Sludge thats Fit to Print) claimed there would be NO MORE SNOW and kids in England would never know snow again and still they parrot this poppycock and tell these lies to school kids and lie filled liberal written text books and fake science magazines and Greenpests(Greenpeace)in the class room dressed as Polarbears
