Using my nifty-difty equation for the fractional loss of a quantity that has a linear trend, Arctic sea ice volume is now down 45% since the record started in January 1979.
(Have I said yet how crappy Windows 10 is? And Excel 365? They are barely worth a beta release; I will never buy anything made by Microsoft ever again. Same with Hewlett Packard -- I bought an HP ENVY in late June for $700, and so much doesn't work on it that I'd like to throw it across my fence and be done with it. Extremely disappointing. I've bought HP products before -- a laptop and more than one printer -- but this product is a complete piece of junk. And, no, I'm not willing to spend endless hours on a phone with a technician trying to make all the mistakes better.)
Anyway, Arctic SIV is declining steadily and scarily. In less than just 40 years.

When something in nature changes so dramatically, it's naturally of concern. But, is the huge reduction in Arctic sea ice really a problem? That is, are there specific harms that will come from the reduction in Arctic sea ice extent?
Cheers
That's an interesting subject with a lot written about it. You should go read some of it.
