    Dude, read that sight again.

    From the same sight: http://arctic.atmos.uiuc.edu/cryosphere/global.sea.ice.area.pdf

    What this is saying is that, while the arctic ice is decreasing, the antarctic is receiving more snowfall due to increased evaporation:

    “In fact, there have been some recent studies suggesting the amount of sea ice in the Southern Hemisphere may initially increase as a response to atmospheric warming through increased evaporation and subsequent snowfall onto the sea ice.”

    So, polar bears are still fucked, while Penguins are now getting more fresh powder to slide around on.

    Congrats, you just advertised proof of environmental change by trying to disprove environmental change…
