All THEY Care About is Making the North Pole Safe for Shipping | Clueless FM 60 Minutes [Bootleg]
As indicated by the word ‘Bootleg’ in the title of this youtube, this is merely a secondary recording using my pocket camera. The full ’60 Minutes’ broadcast will have a longer running time (closer to 60 minutes), and better quality audio & video. It will be uploaded shortly to ‘Going South’, so make sure to subscribe if you’d like to see the full show. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BPUNuoASOJs

Realtime Collapse: Projections point to a likely near Blue Ocean Event in Antarctica in February 2024.
Recent 25-, 10- or 7-day melt compared to 2010s decadal avg over past 15 days, eg 10% higher melt, then projected on rest of Melt Season.
On staying clear of assumptions & political agendas
We need to be clear about accuracy & uncertainty. Myself, I’ve thrown most, if not all, assumptions out the window on this. Most everyone you heard about has an agenda, which is why you even heard about them… Or they are being used by people with one.
In this plot assumptions are cut to the bone: I still assume Earth revolves around the Sun, so that Melt Season works much the same way as in the past decade.
So I use the 10-year average of 2010-19 as the basis to project upon. For instance, we now have within the past 2-3 weeks a 25-day period that melted 10% faster than that same 25-day period in the 2010s: What would happen if that currently observed melt intensity lingered at 110% of the 2010s level, for the duration of the Melt Season?
At the same time, however, I add to the Uncertainty Interval, the coloured area in the plot, all of the periods it didn’t melt that fast, which is why you get 4-5 million km² sea ice as the very least dramatic estimate.
Summary: So all I’m doing is to say, OK it’s melting this fast now, what happens if that would last?

There’s now a very real possibility that both the Arctic in the North and Antarctica in the South will see their record lows beaten for winter maximum and summer minimum, respectively. This will happen during February—March, if it hasn’t already happened here in late January.
Obviously, this is the future, but should this come to pass, the Polar Icecaps would be in a better spot than in a long time, to transfer this planet into a warmer version of itself.
As we know, reduced sea ice is both consequence and cause for further warming, as it is part of a very strong positive feedback mechanism, like the permafrost methane.

With 3 out of 3 worst case projections saying record low sea ice minimum in Antarctica, and 2 out of 3 in the Arctic, all we can do is lean back, and watch, as the data comes in.
