@LLCoolPass But for the most part every summer a little more melts than last summer and every winter a little less freezes than last winter so that over the century there has been less and less ice and less and less multi-year ice.

On the ground data plus the satellite images and measurements paint an unavoidable reality to anyone who hasn't been mind-fucked, psyoped, and propagandized.

Try science over common sense. Common sense is just what people believe and people often get it wrong

i lol'ed at 2:52 when the chinese scientist was describing his expertise.. NOVA producers sure shall a strange sense of humour if they think everyone can understand him without subtitles!

You guys, it gets thin during the summer, and thick during the winter. wow.... common sense... don't know when you're being mind-fucked, psyops, and propagandized, you do?
