Why is Antarctic sea ice at record levels despite global warming?

Original as always I see. Ask me why I never ask you 'What's new?'

Read the article not just the headline. As soon as I saw it was a Guardian piece I knew it was from the deniers of facts.

The facts are; the climate is indeed changing- about the same historical rate as always.

It is also warming as it has been for the past 18,000- 25,000 years when the last ice age ended.

The warming trend was most apparent 1900-1920's when CO2 was hardly climbing at all. The last 19 years showed world wide no warming at all.

During the Holocene (Roman Empire) & the Medieval Warming Optimum (800A.D - 1300A.D) the temps climbed at least, if not more than today.

The IPCC (look it up), referenced as the 'bible' by all the 'warmists' after decades of alarmist warnings admitted that "the planets weather is a chaos based system with too much complexity to allow for predictions" working party no.2. (para.)

There are only two classes of people who push the Alarmist Global Warming Scam.

Crooks or fools.

Which are you?

Why.. because it's all damn lie.

It has nothing to do with science. It is a platform of a sinister philosophical and political agenda. The gaps and contradictions in theory started appearing almost as soon as it was developed.. which means its has to be constantly revised to match evidence that undermines it. In fact it has NEVER been able to predict anything.. all of its original projections are utterly refuted by fact. But this has never been about facts.. it's always been about fear.

Even the name has been changed. It's now 'Climate Change' or 'Extreme Weather' .. which allows it to incorporate ALL weather events as proving its hypothesis, even those clearly corresponding to cold weather.. and even when the original logic has totally unravelled.

But don't expect it to stop. They know there are a segment of weak and credulous intellects who define themselves by labels.. are incapable of independent reason.. and who will believe anything they are told providing in enlists them as members of some group.. and some of them are in influential positions.. like Justin Trudeau.

True

the sea ice extent in the antarctic could have something to do with the conveyer process that starts there. As the sea water starts to freeze in winter, ice starts to crystalize and forms long "tendrils" below the surface. Now, i'm not sure how the rest of this works but as the tendrils form and grow, briny water heavy with salt starts to fall to the depths, eventually forming a vast waterfall of extremely cold, salty water that's something like the equivalent of 2000 niagara falls. This massive loss of salt from the surface waters allows the sea around antarctica to freeze more easily and more completely.


Add to that the fact the southern ocean is rarely ever still. It is constantly being stirred around antarctica by winds which makes it more difficult to heat up as the action of the water helps dispel the heat back into the air. Thus, in combination with the loss of salinity in winter makes it fairly reasonable that the antarctic ice would defy the climate models.
