Antarctica.

... Mountford is correct about the length of time we have had the kind of data needed to calculate the extent of the sea ice around the polar regions and about the extent of the ice. Satellite data only goes back to 1979. Furthermore, this data is publicly available from the Sea Ice Index website of the National Snow and Ice Data Centre. On checking the maps and graphs for the beginning of July 2014 we found that the sea ice extent for Antarctica was over 16 million sq km.For the statistically minded the area of ice has been over two standard deviations higher than the average ice area for the previous three months. The graph of the trend in ice area for the past 30 years reveals an overall increase of 1.7% per decade. This leads us to ask the question: why hasn’t increasing ice in Antarctica received the same publicity as the decreasing ice in the Arctic Ocean, especially as there is more ice around Antarctica than there is in the Arctic ocean? The only answer we can suggest is the absolute prejudice visible in this debate from the global warming fanatics. Mountford is also correct in pointing out that three decades of data may not be significant in the long term, and may simply be part of ongoing natural cycles. Creation Research.
