Gerd Leipold, the outgoing leader of Greenpeace, admitted that his organization's recent claim that the Arctic Ice will disappear by 2030 was "a mistake." Greenpeace said in a July 15 press release that there will be an ice-free Arctic by 2030 because of global warming. BBC reporter Stephen Sackur on the "Hardtalk" program pressed Leipold until he admitted the claim was wrong.

This guy is a member of the Al Gorleone crime family syndicate dedicated to stealing your money in the form of green taxes, eco fees, artificially inflated power rates because the energy is generated from a "green source", etc. People are dying and starving in the world because of corn based ethanol, the real name for which should be "subsidized food burning." Don't beleive in their lies. Fight against any energy source that requires a subsidy to be viable. Burn Alberta oil only.

So sad to listen to an interviewer with an agenda, one that should know better than this, interview someone who has forgotten more on climate change than this guy will ever know and then try to make a claim that was never made. We are sad little monkeys aren't we. Learn the difference between land ice and sea ice, then do a little review on your geography.

The 2009 press release about ice free summers by 2030 was referring to the Arctic sea ice, not Greenland's ice sheet. The interviewer should have known this.
But sea ice modeling has proven to be inaccurate, and the idea that Arctic summer sea ice still be around by 2030 was too optimistic.
Latest estimates are that the summer sea ice will more likely be gone by around 2016.
