of the fate of the polar ice-cap is presented here - http://www.ijis.iarc.uaf.edu/seaice/...Ice_Extent.png

The data goes back to only 2002 since that is when AMERSE was formed as a joint project between NASA and The Japanese Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXX). The data is honest as you would expect from these two agencies. The conclusion is clear; polar ice is NOT going away.

I again urge everyone to check the source data and avoid the alarmist statements in the news media. You sell many more papers by printing that, "...Florida will soon be under water and hurricanes are growing stronger because of global warming" than you will by simply stating the truth.
