With 2018 ending at a 5th lowest average for the year for Arctic sea ice volume, we’re now up to the 6th lowest position per February 21st. These are however still early days, and a 52–day average, while much more reliable than a daily figure, is a lot less indicative of where the year is …
With 2018 ending at a 2nd lowest average for the year for Arctic sea ice extent, and with the new year–to–date average at only the 8th lowest on record after the first week of January, we’re now down to the 5th lowest position per February 20th. These are however still early days, and a 51–day …

2018 was the 5th lowest calendar year on record for annual average sea ice volume in the Arctic. After 2017, 2012, 2016 & 2011. Since New Year we’ve climbed further up, and per now it even seems likely we’ll leave this chart at the high end, by averaging higher than 14 thousand km³ sea ice …
We all know we’ve got thousands and thousands of nuclear bombs, that we can choose whether or not to detonate. The problem about the methane bomb is we don’t get to make that decision. The above is the current map of permafrost areas in the Arctic and further south in the Northern Hemisphere. Most of …
2018 was the 2nd lowest (start of green graph) calendar year on record for annual average sea ice extent in the Arctic. After 2016, but before 2017. Since New Year we’ve climbed back up to 4th lowest, and per now it even seems likely we’ll leave this chart at the high end, by averaging higher …
Talking South s02e02 with Jennifer Hynes Due to the ongoing Permafrost Propaganda Wars, initiated by Yale University, episode s02e02 of my ‘Talking South’ talk show is the longest ever, at 79 minutes. Enjoy! Permafrost Propaganda Wars playlist, in chronological order:
More Arctic Methane Shenanigans: Ivy League university Yale in the United States of America is worried that their January 2019 propaganda video on methane hydrates wasn’t swallowed hook, line and sinker by human beings connected to the Internet. The first sign that you are reading a political propaganda piece and not science communication, is when …
