Based on satellite data, these images show Arctic sea ice in 1979, at left, and in 2003. The ice cover shrunk by 9 percent a decade over that time, NASA says.

All I can say is, that I hope to have died of old age before those things finally melt down...

Someone should check out the Vostok ice core samples: the earth is not nearly as hot as it was prior to the last ice age. I'm glad the article didn't go into the details of how average temperature changes, but this is expected. We're coming out of an ice age and all the data show it. Someone should also check out the data on the Bering land bridge as well.
