I’d be very interested in another example. It’s not too often we can hear evidence against AGW so it’s worth the downvotes that it will inevitably bring.

- busymom0 7y agoOne of the major claims Dr James Hansen made in his testimony in 1988 (which led to the creation of the IPCC) was that the arctic sea ice is melting and it would disappear. In 2008, he was asked about it and he said he was sure it would happen. Dr. James Hansen made his prediction on June 22 1988 and repeated them in 2008. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nasa-climate-scientist-says-were-toast/ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nasa-climate-scientist-says-wer... So I looked at the actual data from the Danish Meteorological Institute: http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/thk.uk.php http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/thk.uk.php June 22, 2008: http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/images/FullSize_CICE_combine_thick_SM_EN_20080622.png http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/images/FullSize_CICE...

June 22, 2018: http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/images/FullSize_CICE_combine_thick_SM_EN_20180622.png http://ocean.dmi.dk/arctic/icethickness/images/FullSize_CICE... The data shows the exact opposite of the claims which were made and even made now a days by the media. It shows it has gotten thicker, more volume and area. You can confirm this from another source by using the data provided here too: ftp://sidads.colorado.edu/DATASETS/NOAA/G02186/ It looks like this: https://i.imgur.com/9kNtYbI.png https://i.imgur.com/9kNtYbI.png
