Temperatures in the Arctic are rising much faster than elsewhere in the world. Researchers now say it may be the result of a dramatic shift in global climate patterns. If they are right, ice at the North Pole may soon be a thing of the past. Full Story »

Interesting and informative article which sites a landmark study in global warming's progress. If there are any counter-arguments against this study's findings (or are they now beliefs held unanimously by climatologists?), it would have been helpful to read them.
The article takes note of new studies indicating air flows in the arctic are accelerating ice shrinkage beyond what atmospheric global warming models alone would suggest. A tipping point may have been crossed.
“If the current flows stay the way they are, then we will see the disappearance of Arctic sea ice 40 years earlier than we would as a result of greenhouse-gas ... More »
Pure speculation of the hysterical type. They don't make it clear that they are talking about losing summer ice only - still plenty of ice in winter. They do mention that it was warm in the 1930's but they don't mention that the arctic was probably ice-free in the summer during the holocene optimum 6,000 years ago. Typical global warming alarmism w/o real scientific backing.
