The Ice in the Arctic Sea Reaches its Yearly Low - DigitalJournal.com: The Power of Citizen Journalism

In spite of dire warnings, it seems that the ice in the Arctic sea has reached its lowest level for the year, and it has failed to break the record shrinkage of last year.

Nature reports that shrinking of the sea-ice in the Arctic is normal. As such, this has nothing whatsoever to do with climate change or global warming. The ice simply melts because it is summer and because the temperature rises as a result. In winter, the ice grows again.

This year, many people had predicted that we would witness the lowest sea-ice level ever. In fact, the messages were sometimes disturbing, because one could easily get the impression that global-warming alarmists were beyond happy that this would occur, but it didn't.
