‘Polar ice melt may be natural event’
'Rapid melting of polar ice sheets may be due to short-lived natural events rather than climate change, scientists said....The findings, reported in the journal Nature Geoscience, suggest that predictions of ice sheet contribution to future sea level rises may be fraught with error. Extrapolating the rate of today’s melting to 2100 could result in a forecast that is too high or too low by as much as 35 centimetres , said the scientists.'
