"The Antarctic continent has not warmed in the last seven decades, despite a monotonic increase in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases."
Discussion
It's *almost* like CO2 is the product of temperature and Milanknovitch cycles are the major driver
Hopefully people won’t just read the title and let it confirm their bias about global warming. The whole article is worth reading.
“Over the past several decades, the Arctic has warmed rapidly, a phenomenon linked to sea ice decline and associated radiative feedbacks. Indeed, the central Arctic has warmed by nearly 6 K over the last three decades.”
The Arctic is the northernmost region of the Earth that features a large ocean covered by a thin layer of perennial sea ice and is almost entirely surrounded by land. In contrast, the Antarctic region comprises the continent of Antarctica - the Earth’s southernmost and fifth-largest continent and the Southern Ocean that surrounds it.
Yes for sure. Different animals, a continent and an ice sheet. I responded because people are inclined to pick up a single sentence and conclude for themselves that an article suggests that there isn’t a global issue to consider. An article worth reading is worth reading in its entirety
agree. thanks for pointing that out in the thread
