Arctic is melting even in winter

[phantom power]

The Arctic icecap is now shrinking at record rates in the winter as well as summer, adding to evidence of disastrous melting near the North Pole, according to research by British scientists.

They have found that the widely reported summer shrinkage, which this year resulted in the opening of the Northwest Passage, is continuing in the winter months with the thickness of sea ice decreasing by a record 19% last winter.

For example:

"The US mainland temperature is currently falling to record levels. Scientists also said the bumble bee cannot fly. We should ignore this so called expert opinion just like the bumble bee."
