The Year 1979 is the year in which the Arctic sea ice covered the most area in known history. And of course, the Climate Scaremonger Faction wants all graph-making & statistical charting of the Arctic's ice cover to begin at its highest numerical year.
In this way, every year to follow 1979 will have a lower square mileage area number attached to it, and this will make it appear that atmospheric CO2 has been melting the North Pole region for the past 45 years. Such a thing is a very predictable trick; sophomoric at best.
The Climate Scaremonger Crowd wants humanity to believe that every year previous to 1979 was a year of equally plentiful sea ice --- that 1979 was just an average & ordinary year when it came to polar sea ice volume, in comparison to 1973, 1974, 1975, and 1976 which had much less Arctic sea ice than did the Year 1979. In fact, 1976 was a tragically hot Summer in France. It was outright hot in Southern England, but not as tragic as in Paris. In the Arctic, there was not as much sea ice as during 1979.
According to the Al Gore & Jim Hansen Theory, no extremely cold and ice-ridden year should ever follow three warm years of less sea ice. But, such a thing happened in the 1970s. In fact, after the ice-ridden year of 1979, 1980 hosted a Summer of true record heat.
Climate Doomsayers want mankind to believe that the atmospheric CO2 level of Planet Earth reached a tipping point in 1979, causing the Arctic sea ice sheet to begin its GRADUAL decline in ice-cover in 1980. In this way, the Climate Corps could easily deceive the People of the Earth into believing in the Al Gore & Michael Mann Theory of Climate. And of course, that theory asserts that CO2 principally drives Planet Earth and determines the surface temperatures of every square kilometer of a very divergent Planet Earth ... and that it happens gradually, in proportion to the amount of CO2 in the sky.
As a result, the Climate Alarm Propagandists assured mankind that the Satellite Era did not begin until 1979, and therefore, when it comes to viewing the condition of the Arctic regions during the previous nine years of the 1970s and during all of the 1960s, "there's nothing to see here, folks. Just move on." Propagandists do not tell the whole story. They present their cases in a false light.
The problem is that there were a number of years preceding 1979, when the sea ice content of the Arctic and the Antarctic was notably lower than usual. This invalidated Al Gore's Climate Theory of CO2 as Driver of the Earth's Climate. This is because there should NOT have been a sudden rise in sea ice in 1979 and in other years of the 20th Century.
This finding is in keeping with true atmospheric science, because 90% of all greenhouse gases, by volume, is WATER VAPOR, making co2 extremely subservient to water vapor. If anything, water drives the climate. But, NASA long since proclaimed that the driver of the Earth's climate is the Sun.
Let us review, for the benefit of those who have trouble reading and need to review the basics
The atmospheric co2 level was on a constant rise in the 1960s & 1970s. But, polar sea ice was NOT on a constant decrease. Therefore, if the Al Gore Climate Theory is true, then there should have been a constant decrease in Polar sea ice throughout the '60s & '70s. The Polar sea ice decline needed to have been equal to the rise in atmospheric co2. Well, this did NOT happen. The atmospheric co2 count steadily rose, like a department store's escalator, en route to the store's 2nd floor. But, polar ice extent did NOT decline in proportion to the rise in CO2.
Meanwhile, the Polar sea ice area of the 1960s, when graphed by honest scientists, looked like a roller coaster's track, going up and then going down, etc, etc. Thus, the atmospheric co2 graph and the polar sea ice graphs were NOT parallel. They should have been a mirror image of each other. They were not.
Shortly After the True Satellite Era Arrived ...
Take note of the following abstract. It was written shortly BEFORE the record breaking Antarctic sea ice high of 2014 was measured. None the less, the finding of & the rescuing of 250,000 pieces of satellite evidence in 2014 helped to prove the present Climate Crisis narrative to be a con game. It helps to show how non-factual the Al Gore & Michael Mann School of Climate is, in its claim that the Earth's surface temperature proceeds parallel to the atmosphere's co2 count, in present time.
There was a lot less co2 in 1966 than in 2021, as in 320 ppm for 1966 and 411 ppm for 2021. So, 2021 should have had the record low sea ice and 1966 should have had the coldest Antarctic winter in recorded history. Well, the opposite occurred. This is evidence that the Al Gore CO2 Climate Driver Theory is not true.
In as much, if you hear anyone preaching about climate, without acknowledging the existence of the Nimbus I, Nimbus II, and Nimbus III satellites of the 1960s & 1970s, then you are hearing a lying con artist who doesn't want anyone to analyze the 250,000 Nimbus satellite images ... or else you are hearing one of the many useful idiots of today who don't even know about the existence of the Nimbus satellite series.
