This was your claim ... I'd just like a little more physics tutoring on how that happens.

I'll await your answer.
You don't have to wait for my answer - I had already posted links to several articles. If you choose to ignore the information and invent your own straw man to battle, that's your choice.

Global warmers don't care about China. They pretend it isn't even there.

Am I really the only one who understands this? Am I in the fracking Twilight Zone?

The ice shelves break away due to pressure and tectonic activity, not temperature and melting.
Yes with these folks it is the Twilight Zone. Common sense is thrown out the window with these folks. It is quite amazing to go through this thread and read their ridiculous arguments. They argue what they are told to argue and that is that. Insanity has taken over.......it really has. I just feel sorry for my kids because they are in for a rough ride with these loons steering the ship...........the ship that is stuck in ice that they claim is melting.......LOL...........just unreal.

Default Climate Scientists Out to Prove Global Warming Stuck in Ice

Irony.

'Stuck in our own experiment': Leader of trapped team insists polar ice is melting | Fox News

Quote:
The leader of a scientific expedition whose ship remains stranded in Antarctic ice says the team, which set out to prove climate change, is "stuck in our own experiment."

But Chris Turney, a professor of climate change at Australia’s University of New South Wales, said it was “silly” to suggest he and 73 others aboard the MV Akademic Shokalskiy were trapped in ice they’d sought to prove had melted. He remained adamant that sea ice is melting, even as the boat remained trapped in frozen seas.
rest at link.

Russia to build icebreakers to secure its Arctic power position - News - Russia - The Voice of Russia: News, Breaking news, Politics, Economics, Business, Russia, International current events, Expert opinion, podcasts, Video

Quote:
Russia is launching the construction of new-generation nuclear-powered icebreakers. The icebreaker of the LK-60Ya model, named Arktika as a tribute to the prominent Soviet nuclear-powered icebreaker of the same name, is due to begin sea trials in 2017. The ship will prove effective for the deep-water areas of the Northern Sea Route and the shallow waters of Russia’s Arctic shelf. Russia is due to build three such icebreakers in the next decade.
If ice is melting why build three giant ice breakers?
