There was no change in terms:
Global warming vs climate change
Also, weather is not the same as climate:
The difference between weather and climate
I imagine we'll have lots of fun laughing about many liberal apocalypse myths: climate change, peak oil, the population bomb, etc...
I have no doubt we'd be hearing a lot more about meteors and supervolcanoes as well if you all could just figure out how to tie them to higher taxes, redistribution of wealth, and increased regulation.
Kill ourselves by not listening to whom? Al Gore?
Leftists will believe anything!
That was neither said nor suggested. Why not respond to the post rather than asking stupid questions?
What was suggested was either if can't control everyone do nothing, or we control them, which would require invasion. China has all the lack of regulations you want. Right?
Nothing was 'suggested'.
Climate change is real a few months ago it was cold now it is not so cold. just proves that climate is changing.
It's the logical conclusion. Otherwise, it says nothing at all. A waste of bandwidth.
It's your conclusion, perhaps, but don't plead logic!
Pretty silly argument you got there, but are suggesting we invade China?
Your first link is incorrect so didn't bother with the second. Believe what you want but don't expect others to pay for your beliefs.
The ice cap is growing. You know that, right?
Here in Louisiana it snowed three times this winter.
Hell, I'll be glad when global warming kicks in! LOL!!
Yeah well Here in Wisconsin it was 100+ degrees for a week straight .. we had our hottest summer on record.
I think I will trust NASA's satellites over whatever source you got your information from.

then what is he suggesting? He brought up China and them not complying. I'm open to any point actually being made.No, that's your fantasy, don't lay that on him. He never suggested any such thing.

I want to see real pressure brought to bear on China by environmentalists publically. I'm sick of the double standard with China. They and India are given a pass while US companies are pummeled on a regular basis. China is a cesspool compared to us, and if environmentalists really believe in their cause they'll attack the hard targets like China, and not just the easy ones.

I think you're being more than a little disingenuous here....BTW, so is NASA.....
"Since reaching its annual maximum extent on March 21, Arctic sea ice extent has declined somewhat unevenly, but has consistently been well below its average 1981 to 2010 extent. While the rate of Arctic-wide retreat was rapid through the first half of April, it has subsequently slowed down. However, ice breakup was quite early in the Bering Sea, presenting difficulties for gold dredging operations and seal hunters in the region. In the Antarctic, sea ice continued to reach record high extents."

So the rate of melt was higher in early April, and slowed down, because the temp according to your own article says:
"This year, Arctic temperatures were 1.8 to 4.5 degrees Fahrenheit (1 to 2.5 degrees Celsius) lower than average, according to NASA's Modern Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, a merging of observations and a modeled forecast. The colder temperatures were in part due to a series of summer cyclones. In August 2012, a big storm caused havoc on the Arctic Ocean’s icy cover, but this summer’s cyclones have had the opposite effect: under cloudier conditions, surface winds spread the ice over a larger area."
So, NASA is using a "model" and changing what actually happened which is an expansion, not a decrease as they would mislead you to believe...And AGW zealots buy right into it without question....
