Perhaps if we all just believe hard enough that the ice isn't melting, maybe it will stop melting.

#7Why is Antarctica melting more now than when the ozone hole was a major issue in 90s? That was centered on Antarctica and has been largely fixed I think. Why is this happening now and not then? Or is now because of then? Can anyone provide a clear answer?
(edit: wtf? why would anyone downvote this? it's a legit and perfectly fair question.)

This, right here, is representative of a problem.
Given what the global scientific consensus is (AGW is real, ice is melting, humans are to blame), it is my first impression that your graph and stance is probably crap, but I don't know enough about climate science to make a reasonable argument one way or another (or even interpret the data for that matter).
What's a layperson to do? You can learn basic Python in an afternoon, but basic climatology?

Yep. It's already been debunked multiple times, but they just keep rehashing it to sell newspapers. Here's a trend for those interested in the actual numbers: http://www.climate4you.com/images/NSIDC%20GlobalArcticAntarc...

Bonus stat, antarctic sea ice set maximum ever in Oct 2014, from source confirmed to still believe in global warming: http://www.nasa.gov/content/goddard/antarctic-sea-ice-reache...
