Antarctic sea ice extent is currently tracking the long-term average dating back to 1979. In fact, there is more sea ice around Antarctica today than there was 45 years ago in 1981. In the Arctic, the picture is also misrepresented. There has been no net trend in Arctic sea ice extent since Greta Thunberg was three years old. Season ups and downs play out, but there is no sustained decline. Taken together, total global sea ice extent right now is higher than it was in 2006. That was the year Al Gore predicted polar collapse and was awarded the Nobel Prize. This is not conjecture. It is what the satellite record shows.

A cruise ship carrying about 200 passengers became trapped in thick Antarctic pack ice this month. The distress call was answered by the only heavy icebreaker the United States still operates - the Polar Star, commissioned in 1976. This half-century-old icebreaker (kept alive by scavenged parts from its decommissioned sister ship) is the backbone of US polar capability. This is what happens when policy is built on Al Gore's absurd climate prophecies instead of reality. Antarctic sea ice extent is currently tracking the long-term average dating back to 1979. In fact, there is more Antarctic sea ice today than 45 years ago. While in the Arctic, sea ice shows no sustained trend for going on two decades now. Taken together, global sea ice extent today is higher than in 2006, the same year An Inconvenient Truth promised imminent polar collapse. It's 2026, and ships are freezing into unusually thick Antarctic ice in peak summer. The prophecy failed.

Deniers do not like the truth 70% of Arctic sea ice is now seasonal The ice forms in the Winter and melts in the Summer, instead of lasting from year to year Seasonal ice is thinner and weaker than permanent ice

The public was told shrinking sea ice means starving polar bears. Now the data say the opposite. A new Scientific Reports study tracked 770 polar bears around Svalbard over the past 27 years. The results show body conditions improved since the year 2000, even as the sea ice declined. The scientists found no direct link between declining sea ice and worsening adult bear condition. In fact, many bears got fatter. Globally, the polar bear population stood at just 5,000 in the 1960s. Today, it's at more than 30,000. And worse still for The Narrative, Arctic sea ice extent has held steady for the past 18 years now, showing no trends since 2007.

Antarctic sea ice is surging. After declining in 2023, sea ice extent has been climbing ever since, and now sits back at the average. In just three years, Antarctic sea ice has recovered roughly 2.5 million square kilometers. This occurred despite claims in outlets like The Guardian that a new 'climate regime' had begun.

The 2025 Arctic sea ice minimum stands at 4.6 million km2. That's 350,000 km2 more than 2024, and 180,000 above the 2011 to 2020 average. The claims of an ice-free Arctic have failed, yet again. In fact, no decline in sea ice has been observed in 18 years, longer if you take into account the artificial drop post-2007 which was due to a sensor and an algorithmic change. Mainstream scientists are of course dumbfounded by this pause. One paper (Swart 2015) claimed that an 18-year pause in melting was less than 10% likely. Experts underestimated the resilience of Arctic sea ice, assigning more than a 90% chance against what has actually happened. The ice is not disappearing. The models have been proven wrong.

Back in 2009, the newly appointed director of the National Snow and Ice Data Center, Mark Serreze, warned that Arctic sea ice was in a death spiral. He predicted the Arctic could be ice-free by the summer of 2030, likely even earlier. Nearly two decades later, the data tell a very different story. According to the NSIDC's own records, September sea ice has shown no downward trend since 2007 - 18 years of stability. Despite rising CO2 levels and every claimed feedback mechanism, the ice is not budging. It remains right where it was in the mid-2000s. As climate researcher Javier Vinos put it, "Clearly the models on which these predictions are based do not accurately reflect the actual climate." The Arctic death spiral never happened, yet Serreze remains director of the NSIDC. There is zero accountability.
