Antarctica Getting Colder

 The journal Climate Change Dispatch headlines an article thus:

Antarctica Is Colder, Icier Today Than At Any Time In 5,000 Years.

Whew! That doesn't support the global warming hypothesis at all. Somebody tell Al Gore and Greta Whatshername.

West Antarctica’s mean annual surface temperatures cooled by more than -1.8°C (-0.93°C per decade) from 1999-2018 (Zhang et al., 2023).

Not just West Antarctica, but most of the continent also has cooled by more than 1°C in the 21st century. See, for example, the ~1°C per decade cooling trend for East Antarctica (2000 to 2018).
