Abstract

Antarctic sea ice is INCREASING: Big freeze breaks records - but scientists claim the rise is caused by global warmingImages suggest there is 7.7 million square miles of sea around continentThis is double size of the Antarctic and three times the size of AustraliaFast westerly winds, which go around Antarctica, are now moving southThis is linked to an increase in greenhouse gases and increase in sea iceSeparate study found region's glaciers are melting faster than ever before
