Arctic is warmest it's been in 10,000 years

Is that Land Area? Drop a blop of icecream on the ground in the sun and watch how it spreads out.

Edit:

Actually reading the article suggests something more complex is going on. The rate of loss is related to the local sea water temperature. If it's warm, the ice flows. If it's colder, the ice slows. On average - if the water's going to be warmer that ice is going to start shifting.

Which means if my calculations are correct, we're still all doomed.... Hah!....oh....
