Global Sea Ice Extent

This image is a true image. We have placed it in this section because it is being used out of context. Denialists are stating that it shows no change therefore global warming is a myth. Reality is that Arctic extent is decreasing and Antarctic in increasing, but this is a red herring argument. These ice extent anomalies were predicted. Arctic ice mass loss is a more obvious indicator. Antarctica is predicted to have increasing ice while atmospheric moisture content increases until it's tipping point is reached.
