"Overall, the Antarctic sea ice has grown at a rate of about 38,610 sq miles each decade since the 1970s."Interesting. Human pollutants are increasing sea ice in the Antarctic?! Hmm.
More counter-intuitive research findings: A Little Air Pollution Boosts Vegetation’s Carbon Uptake. Key bits:
"The world’s vegetation soaked up carbon dioxide more efficiently under the polluted skies of recent decades than it would have under a pristine atmosphere, a new analysis in the April 23 Nature suggests."Does anyone really believe that climate scientists have any idea how global climate actually functions, including the countless feedback mechanisms?
“Surprisingly, the effects of atmospheric pollution seem to have enhanced global plant productivity by as much as 25 percent from 1960 to 1999."
