7 Mile Ice Sheet
Ice drifts off Canada's Ellesmere Island on Sunday after separating from the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf. The shelf lost a sheet of ice that covers seven square miles. A scientist said the cause was a "different climate" that isn't rebuilding Arctic ice, though he stopped short of directly blaming global warming.

Hmmmm...interesting. I just saw the following from another part of our world:
DAILY, new evidence emerges to demonstrate that Climate Minister Penny Wong is wrong. The latest blow to the Government’s apocalyptic prophet is news from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute that there is more ice than normal in the Arctic waters north of the Svalbard archipelago. According to the Barents Observer there are open areas in this area in most years during July - but this year the area is covered by ice. - Daily Telegraph (Sidney, Australia)
