This came from Drudge. Not surprising.
Myth of arctic meltdown: Stunning satellite images show summer ice cap is thicker and covers 1.7million square kilometres MORE than 2 years ago...despite Al Gore's prediction it would be ICE-FREE by now
Seven years after former US Vice-President Al Gore's warning, Arctic ice cap has expanded for second year in row
An area twice the size of Alaska - America's biggest state - was open water two years ago and is now covered in ice
These satellite images taken from University of Illinois's Cryosphere project show ice has become more concentrated

The speech by former US Vice-President Al Gore was apocalyptic. ‘The North Polar ice cap is falling off a cliff,’ he said. ‘It could be completely gone in summer in as little as seven years. Seven years from now.’
Those comments came in 2007 as Mr Gore accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for his campaigning on climate change.
But seven years after his warning, The Mail on Sunday can reveal that, far from vanishing, the Arctic ice cap has expanded for the second year in succession – with a surge, depending on how you measure it, of between 43 and 63 per cent since 2012.

To put it another way, an area the size of Alaska, America’s biggest state, was open water two years ago, but is again now covered by ice.
The most widely used measurements of Arctic ice extent are the daily satellite readings issued by the US National Snow and Ice Data Center, which is co-funded by Nasa. These reveal that – while the long-term trend still shows a decline – last Monday, August 25, the area of the Arctic Ocean with at least 15 per cent ice cover was 5.62 million square kilometres.
Who's got the pic of Algore and the flames coming from his mouth? It's rather appropriate here, no?

Ptarmigans are not complaining about it one bit.

And at this time of the year, lotsa things are happening on the other end of the world:

I just love it when the climate change lunatics wind up looking like DUmbasses. :lmao:

There are a couple on another forum that I hit with facts. Each and every time, they C&P some tripe that "disproves" any and all proof that Glowballs Warming is nothing more than a scam.
Just like DUmmies, it don't matter. They BELIEVE.

Keep the coldest snowiest multiyear record low temperature day open in your calendar.
That will be the day AlGore has his annual glowbull warming convention.
It's like clockwork.
