Antarctica is melting!! or not...
Cold Facts About Faux Antarctica Meltdown James Kamis June 16, 2021 Once again last week, one of the top climate stories was on, well, thin Antarctic ice. First, note that nearly all of the stories about "unprecedented" warming in this area refer to Western Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula. There is good reason that no reference is made to the remaining 80% or so of the continent. That is because it is very difficult to melt ice when temperatures are tens of degrees Celsius below freezing. An Antarctica that isn't on the brink of complete meltdown does not fit into the catastrophic warming narrative needed to promote a climate of fear. 1
