Now, since 2007, at the height of the
global warming scare tactics
about arctic
sea ice, the antarctic
sea ice extents anomaly CONTINUOUSLY exceeds 1.25 Mkm ^ 2 for 3 years straight now, and is larger than 1.5 Mkm ^ 2 so often for such long times that it is not even newsworthy on a skeptic site.
It is true that this is consistent with the idea that there has been continuous
global warming, although it is complicated by the fact that the Antarctic
sea ice extent still seems to be
about the same, i.e., the «
global» warming only seems to have affected the northern polar region, not the southern polar region.
That study showed
sea ice extent crashing by two thirds by the 2030s and then collapsing to near - zero shortly thereafter — unless we cut
global GHG emissions
about 60 % to 70 % almost immediately and have further cuts after that, an implausible assumption the authors never spelled out clearly (as I explain here).
