One-way street

Not good news:

A chunk of ice spreading across seven square miles has broken off a Canadian ice shelf in the Arctic, scientists said Tuesday.

Derek Mueller, a research at Trent University, was careful not to blame global warming, but said it the event was consistent with the theory that the current Arctic climate isn’t rebuilding ice sheets.

“We’re in a different climate now,” he said. “It’s not conducive to regrowing them. It’s a one-way process.”

So it’s not global warming, but we are “in a different climate now.”

We’ll be arguing over whether the climate is or isn’t changing even as the water rises around our ears.
