Claim: ‘Global warming is creating MORE ice’ – Antarctic levels reach a record high because of climate change, scientists claim
Claim was made by Mark Serreze, director of the National Snow and Ice Data Centre, when speaking to Harold Ambler at Talking About the Weather
Shift is caused by water melting from beneath the Antarctic ice shelves
Scientists claim it is then re-frozen back on surface, increasing sea ice
Antarctica’s sea ice set a record this week, reaching 815,448 square miles (1,312,000 square km) of ice above its normal range
