@kayle No. Degree in Biology. So I also know chemistry and physics.
1. The Antarctic ice sheet is getting larger. It contains 90% of the world's ice.
2. Do you remember Climate Gate?

@HoraceGreenley Irrespective of "climate-gate", there is plenty of valid evidence of global warming. Even previous skeptics are conceding. And what is your source that antarctic ice is growing?

Scientific consensus: Earth's climate is warming (from NASA's website)
https://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/
Multiple studies published in peer-reviewed scientific journals show that 97 percent or more of actively publishing climate scientists agree: Climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities. In addition, most of the leading scientific organizations worldwide have issued public statements endorsing this position. The following is a partial list of these organizations, along with links to their published statements and a selection of related resources.
Statement on climate change from 18 scientific associations
"Observations throughout the world make it clear that climate change is occurring, and rigorous scientific research demonstrates that the greenhouse gases emitted by human activities are the primary driver." (2009)
American Association for the Advancement of Science;
American Chemical Society
American Geophysical Union
American Medical Association
American Meteorological Society
American Physical Society
The Geological Society of America
International academies: Joint statement
"Climate change is real. There will always be uncertainty in understanding a system as complex as the world鈥檚 climate. However there is now strong evidence that significant global warming is occurring. The evidence comes from direct measurements of rising surface air temperatures and subsurface ocean temperatures and from phenomena such as increases in average global sea levels, retreating glaciers, and changes to many physical and biological systems. It is likely that most of the warming in recent decades can be attributed to human activities (IPCC 2001)." (2005, 11 international science academies)
U.S. National Academy of Sciences
"The scientific understanding of climate change is now sufficiently clear to justify taking steps to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere." (2005)
