The Australian has the story:
"... while some ice-shelf melting is under way on the peninsula and in other parts of west Antarctica that may be related to global warming, ice shelves in east Antarctica remain intact.
East Antarctica is four times the size of west Antarctica.
At the same time, the area of sea ice around the continent is expanding, with sea ice growth in east Antarctica and the Ross Sea more than compensating for losses in west Antarctica. Contrary to public perceptions, parts of Antarctica have been cooling.
The newspaper forced an embarrassing climb-down on the issue from erstwhile Midnight Oil frontman-turned-Labor-politician, Peter Garrett.
You really should read the whole thing.
One hopes that this helps to remove any doubt about where I stand on the man-made "climate change" absurdity.
