"The speech
by former US Vice-President Al Gore was apocalyptic. ‘The North Polar
ice cap is falling off a cliff,’ he said. ‘It could be completely gone
in summer in as little as seven years. Seven years from now.’
Those comments came in 2007 as Mr Gore accepted the Nobel Peace Prize for his campaigning on climate change.
But
seven years after his warning, The Mail on Sunday can reveal that, far
from vanishing, the Arctic ice cap has expanded for the second year in
succession – with a surge, depending on how you measure it, of between
43 and 63 per cent since 2012"
