The Best House Keeping

One of our prides is the House keeping team we have built up, as we have implemented a rigorous training method to make sure we find the right people that fit our 'Five Star Standard'. For the selected few that qualify for staying on our team we follow through after each cleaning to make sure we uphold the quality we are known for.

"Over the span of the satellite record, Arctic sea ice has been declining significantly, while sea ice in the Antarctichas increased very slightly"

-NOAA

So what does the new record for the lowest level of winter ice actually mean

The Arctic Ocean freezes every winter and much of the sea-ice then thaws every summer, and that process will continue whatever happens with climate change. Even if the Arctic continues to be one of the fastest-warming regions of the world, it will always be plunged into bitterly cold polar dark every winter. And year-by-year, for all kinds of natural reasons, there’s huge variety of the state of the ice.

For a start, it does not automatically follow that a record amount of ice will melt this summer. More important for determining the size of the annual thaw is the state of the weather as the midnight sun approaches and temperatures rise. But over the more than 30 years of satellite records, scientists have observed a clear pattern of decline, decade-by-decade.
