The Arctic is likely to become “ice-free” by midcentury—and could pass that grim milestone much sooner unless much more is done to combat climate change

Well, good luck with that.

    I guess the models and estimates changed. Science is like that: it responds to new discoveries. It’s only a minor difference in the time scale though: whether it’s 2013 or 2030, we’re in serious trouble now.

      It’s the difference between scientific consensus and doomists.

      Scientific consensus isn’t that the north pole sea will be ice free in the summer in the next few years.
