Posted on September 28, 2012September 28, 2012 by TRP

Arctic sea ice is declining much faster than scientists expected, which has important implications for the rate and impacts of climate change.

Whats Hotter: Global Warming Or Paul Ryans Abs?

TV News Covered Paul Ryans Workout Over Three Times More Than Arctic Sea Ice Loss. Since June, the major TV news outlets have devoted seven full segments to Paul Ryans physical fitness and P90X workout routine, and only one to Arctic sea ice loss. ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Fox News and MSNBC have each covered Paul Ryans workout routine as much or more than Arctic sea ice loss. In total, TV outlets have discussed Ryans fitness 66 times — more than three times as much as Arctic sea ice.
