Between 2020 and 2024, the Antarctic Ice Sheet gained ice at an average rate of 67.5 billion metric tons per year.

In nearly seven decades of DMI data, no High Arctic summer has been colder.

Belgrano II posted a daily high of -35.2C (-31.4F)—the Antarctic station’s lowest maximum temperature in records dating back to 1956.

As the 2026 El Niño begins lifting global atmospheric temperatures, another major natural cycle is moving firmly the other way: Solar Cycle 25 is now clearly descending from its maximum.

The result is a temperature network that looks increasingly homogeneous without becoming more accurate.

Geomorphologists Kristen Cook, president of the European Geosciences Union’s Geomorphology Division: “The rock that the glacier was sitting on collapsed.”

2025–26 ranks among the strongest accumulation years of the satellite-era record.

More than 170 years of glacier retreat has barely changed the basic number: roughly 10% of Earth’s land was covered by glacial ice near the end of the Little Ice Age—and roughly 10% remains covered today.

What has become abnormal is the insistence that every climatic fluctuation is proof of a crisis, that every crisis requires intervention, and every intervention must flow through the same institutions whose standards and objectivity are demonstrably declining.
