I recently read that the antarctic ice cap has been growing and expanding.
What is the comparison between ice in antarctic expanding and ice in the arctic diminishing?
I have not seen or heard and such comparison. I'll look again in case I missed it.
I recall that in January 1962 the temperature at my home in Phoenix, AZ was 12deg F for
long enough to freeze to the ground several young but good sized trees.
That was 54 years ago. In 1950 while in high school I watched snow fall in downtown Phoenix. That was 62 years ago.
Could it be that these recent (20 or so years) fluctuations are normal. Just maybe?
