Over the years newscasters, politicians and scientists trying to warn us about the dangers of climate change have made predictions about future climate consequences - such as, "Some models say the arctic will be ice free on 9 years. " Then in 9 years the arctic was not "ice free". Aha - the whole climate thing is wrong! That would be great if it were true. Unfortunately, it is head-in-the-sand simplistic thinking. The estimates of scientists themselves are more conservative than what makes the newspaper or website headline! However, the key point is that ALL the effects of climate disruption are happening AND it is all happening faster in the past two years than predictions indicated.
