The opposite impression has been pushed on the public by hysterical media reporting last week (using recycled photos taken more than a year ago) about the imminent collapse of the Wilkins Ice Shelf, thereby indicating runaway global warming. Never mind the fact that fracturing of ice is a mechanical process, usually assisted by bitterly cold temperatures, rather than a melting phenomenon.
For a thorough, critical scientific analysis be sure to read Watts Up With That? In fact, if you are interested in global climate change you should bookmark this site and visit it often. Then make up your own mind.
