I did not know this so I looked it up and found out why it is the case. An article from 2015 from Nasa confirms this.
  1. Antarctic is surrounded by a water currents that helps protect it from the warming ocean currents. This keeps if from melting as fast as the Arctic ice. Even though chunks are breaknig loose, it is continuing to grow in overall area.
  2. It is made up of sea ice which does not impact sea water levels when it melts. It is easier to form than glacial ice. Artic ice is mainly glacier ice and will add to the sea levels as it melts.
  3. Based on the rate of temp increase in the world, they expect the Antarctic ice growth to be low enough to not be offset by new ice within 20-30 years.

I did not know a lot of this.
Of course some may say its government propaganda.
I think the wind currents play a part as well, plus Antarctica is a continent unlike the Artic

Tanko, I’ve heard that adding salt to the ice helps.

Is this true? You’re the expert here on ice fans.
Don't know. We used frozen water bottles instead of raw ice so we didn't use any salt.
The best part about using frozen water bottles is that you can drink the water after it melts.

When your camping in an undeveloped site (no elec, no water), its nice to have the extra water from the redneck AC.

You can laugh but I built one of these when we were camping in a tent. It actually worked until the ice finally melted on day 3. We used it at night to stay cool.

Just call me Redneck Tanko.
Ppl poke fun at them but let's be honest, if the sh!t ever really hit the fan worldwide they would be the ones to survive in so many ways over everyone else
