Trying to conflate the rapidly and massively declining Arctic sea ice with the very seasonal, temporarily increasing Antarctic sea ice is another fraudulent denier cult propaganda meme. The Antarctic sea ice is insignificant compared to the land-based ice resting on the continent of Antarctica.
The sea ice surrounding Antarctica is more important than Arctic sea ice for the simple reason that it is at a lesser latitude. The solar flux being reflected is greater because it is at a less oblique angle.
This is seldom mentioned in the media because it 'dilutes' the message.
