From 2009: Gore: Polar Ice Could Disappear By 2014
Here too, from 2009: Al Gore: Polar Ice Caps will melt in 5-7 years "New computer modeling suggests the Arctic Ocean may be nearly ice-free in the summertime as early as 2014, Al Gore said Monday at the U.N. climate conference. This new projection, following several years of dramatic retreat by polar sea ice, suggests that the ice cap may nearly vanish in the summer much sooner than the year 2030, as was forecast by a U.S. government agency eight months ago.
"One U.S. government scientist Monday questioned the new prediction as too severe, but other researchers previously have projected a quicker end than 2030 to the Arctic summer ice cap."...
A U.S. government agency predicted the melting of the polar ice cap in the year 2030. However, climate guru Al Gore said at the U.N. climate conference on Monday that new computer modeling indicates this could happen as soon as 2014.
One U.S. government scientist on Monday said the new prediction was too severe, but other researchers have previously projected a quicker end than 2030 to the Arctic summer ice cap.
Former U.S. Vice President Gore said, “It is hard to capture the astonishment that the experts in the science of ice felt when they saw this.”
Gore and a group of Scandinavian officials and scientists have come together for the two-week conference.
