Choking Canary

Take a look at the current extent of Arctic Ice Melt. Maximum ice melt will see a near repeat of the record low extent of Arctic ice in 2007 - it could be just above or below the record set four years ago.

However, the bigger concern is that Arctic Ice Volume, at 3 million cubed kilometres of ice, is the lowest ever. In 1979 it was 17 million cubed kilometres at this time of year.
