Steven Hayward at Pacific Research is out with the fourteenth Index of Leading Environmental Indicators. It's a 75 page PDF packed with all sorts of interesting views of our environment, how it's changing, and how it's being reported.
The graph at right is just one randomly chosen example. This one shows the variations in sea ice coverage in the Antarctic over the past 30 years. This is the period for which satellite-borne instruments give us reliable coverage data. If you've been listening to a lot of the AGW hype, what you see on that graph may surprise you...
I recommend taking an evening to peruse this document yourself. It reminds me a bit of the Skeptical Environmentalist, in a sort of Reader's Digest form...
