“Arctic sea ice extent for July 2018 averaged 8.22 million square kilometers (3.20 million square miles). This was 1.25 million square kilometers (483,000 square miles) below the 1981 to 2010 long-term average sea ice extent, and 550,000 square kilometers (212,000 square miles) above the record low for the month set in July 2012. July 2018 was the ninth lowest July extent in the satellite record.
Despite finishing ninth lowest in the monthly average, ice loss was rapid during the month. As a result, by July 31 daily extent tracked fourth lowest in the satellite record, just below the extent seen last year at this time, and also just above that seen in 2007, 2011, and 2012. Extent remained unusually low in the Atlantic sector of the Arctic, including the Barents, Kara, Laptev, and East Greenland Seas, whereas the ice edge in the Beaufort and East Siberian Seas remained near average. By the end of July, the ice within Hudson Bay had all melted out and the ice edge in the Chukchi Sea had also retreated far north of its average position for this time of year. This pattern is in stark contrast to last year when by July’s end, the ice edge was located far north of its usual position in the Beaufort and East Siberian Seas while with ice on the Atlantic side, extent was near average.”
Conditions in context
These are now cast observations compared to ten years ago. The sea ice in the artic circle has indeed declined I’ve the period of Havana poons non scientific hit job piece. 50 percent change was the prediction according to the non scientific snark hit piece. So the prediction in fact came true.

It all stems from the right's love for big oil & coal. Big oil has them by the balls so they have to be vehemently against:
alternative/renewable energy sources like solar panels, wind turbines
Global warming/climate change
All Gore
Elon Musk
Hybrid auto technology
They have their orders from above and they have to obey. Forget about the truth and facts.
If it's not in the right wing playbook, they won't believe it.
Sad
Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
“We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”
So many conspiracy theories, so little facts.

Havana poon never has any science at all. Sad old man.
Two cents per post 1/2 penny per groan. He can get that pint of vodka
