Masters rebukes disinformers: “Diminishing the importance of Arctic sea ice loss by calling attention to Antarctic sea ice gain is like telling someone to ignore the fire smoldering in their attic, and instead go appreciate the coolness of the basement, because there is no fire there.

The attic vs. basement analogy is deepley flawed. It appeals to ignorance of the fact that Arctic Sea ice comprises of about 0.01% of total earth’s ice.
