the running sham being played out here is for the 'usual suspects' to ignore/deny the long-term Arctic sea-ice melting trends for both extent and volume... ignore/deny those long-term trends while fixating on predictions made by a few scientists. And, of course, while doing that, adamantly state "I'm/we're not grouping all scientists together"!
Yeah the arctic sea ice isn't really a long term trend. It's the blink of an eye. Astonishingly fast. They didn't get any pause in the Arctic. On the plus side, opening up the Arctic should allow us to get our hands on more oil! :lol:
