    Melt ponds can really screw up a good bias…………….

    Climate models could tell us it is the Tooth Fairy melting all that ice, if we simply put her in the place of CO2 in those models.

    Ice melts. Big deal.

        You can “Pick” a forty year period to prove any trend you want! All the variability has been seen in the past. The 40 years leading into the Younger Dryas is a good example as is the 40 years of warming an example of faster ice melt!
