How is the Antarctic? Antarctic has multiple times more of the world's polar ice compared to the arctic. If both are up, this is a good point. If the Arctic is up but the Antarctic is down and down more than the Arctic, the gains in the north are lost by the losses in the south. This is important data for this conversation. It literally makes or breaks the entire argument. Edit - Found it. It's down. Way down. https://climate.nasa.gov/vital-signs/ice-sheets/ There's no point, here. Careful using these talking points without knowing all the facts because it will make you look like an idiot. Always check for the full picture and don't settle for just one site that clearly has a bias.
