A former climate change and global warming skeptic says the Antarctic should join the Arctic in seeing more global warming effects in the future.
Why? The Montreal Protocol that got developed nations to start phasing out freons and put worldwide regulations on them in place, is starting to close the ozone hole over the Antarctic.
James Overland, who admits that he used to be a skeptic, called the projected Antarctic changes “startling.”
Meanwhile, preliminary predictions are that this year’s end-of-summer minimum on Arctic sea ice will be as bad or worse than last year’s.
