De noordpool vecht terug

"The Arctic is warmer the past six years than at any time on record, with more green shrubs, less sea ice and rising temperatures in the frozen earth known as permafrost, scientists reported.

However, there are signs that some parts of the Arctic environment are returning to levels of lower temperatures seen in the mid-20th century, the researchers said."

""This is a region that is fighting back ... and consequently there are some things that show signs of going back to earlier climatological norms, what we saw from 1950 through 1980," said Jacqueline Richter-Menge of the Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory in Hanover, New Hampshire."

Raar bericht eigenlijk...de Noordpool is nog nooit zo warm geweest maar er zijn indictaoren die erop wijzen dat de Noordpool weer terugkeert naar 'normale' temperaturen.
