Try living in the North and see how "trivial" some of those changes are. The Inuk of Canada and Thule of Greenland have suprisingly long records of hunting patterns and ice extent. The change is real and certainly has not occurred since humans have occupied the Arctic.
After living there for a year, you can see the changes first hand. The ice roads are not open as long, permafrost is melting and buildings are being unsettled.
But like most things to do with the environment, the prevailing mentality is: "Out of sight, out of mind."
