A new NASA study... challenges the conclusions of other studies, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) 2013 report, which says that Antarctica is overall losing land ice.
According to the new analysis of satellite data, the Antarctic ice sheet showed a net gain of 112 billion tons of ice a year from 1992 to 2001....[and] ...82 billion tons of ice per year between 2003 and 2008.
Looks like some years the south pole is the coldest and some years the north pole is coldest. There is a 50/50 % chance that one or the other will be the coldest.... and/or the warmest.
Whichever one is warmest that year(s), gets the global warming designation. Duh
Heat and cold move around, as you would expect on a planet full of life, atmospheric volitivity, volcanic activity and solar variance.
C02 has nothing to do with any of this in my opinion.
