Yes. And the conclusion we come to when we do so is that 97% of the world's climate scientists are many orders of magnitude more likely to be correct than the 1% who actually disagree with the IPCC.

Surge In Greenland Ice Loss
By Joe Romm and Jeff Spross
March 17, 2014
Greenlands contribution to global sea level has soared in the past two decades. An important new study finds that the massive northeastern part of the ice sheet, previously thought to be stable, has begun shedding ice. If this trend continues and researchers say a self-perpetuating feedback process may have been triggered actual sea level rise this century will likely be higher than many current models had projected.

But the new study, Sustained mass loss of the northeast Greenland ice sheet triggered by regional warming, published in Nature Climate Change (subs. reqd), suggests the northeastern portion began melting rapidly around 2003. And after first jumping from an ice loss rate of zero to about 10 billion metric tons per year, its now approaching 15 or 20 billion metric tons per year and may well keep accelerating.

Think Progress?
A Marxist propaganda organization of George Soros.
The link does not work.
Marxist propaganda is not Science.
George Soros Marxist reposting "press releases" they post to dozens of websites as fact. Its all propaganda but because the Liberal/Leftist can link to it people re-post it here as if its fact.
The link as well as the title of the propaganda here is broken, you can not even find it with google.
Its time start calling the idiots what they are. Liars and Leftists

If that were true they wouldn't have had to resort to data falsification and they would actually get a prediction correct occasionally. So far no joy. 30 years down the road and the world is EXACTLY the same as when they started their campaign of bullshit.
Fail.
I am so tired of the cold. Thanks for depressing the hell out of Me....
They do!!!! Just ask them about Australia this summer. It was hot. Get it, summer, hot!!!!So the Climate Has Not changed deniers see a100,000 year old ice cube melt a fraction on its surface as it has forever and that is proof. I am surprised the Global Warming nuts do not point to summer or even daytime as proof of global warming.
I am so tired of the cold. Thanks for depressing the hell out of Me....
Well I didn't think cold existed anymore. What? Cold? I mean all the ice melted didn't it, hawaii's gone and all of the other little islands all over the globe.

Ah well, another idiot with more ignorance to display chimes in. Note the area in east Siberia that is just as warm as the the cold area is cold. And, yes, the ice is melting. And just 3 feet would be catastrophic.
You must have saw yourself in a mirror when posting that last post eh?I am so tired of the cold. Thanks for depressing the hell out of Me....

In other words, just silly flap yap and no evidence to back your position.
Post something and that will be my evidence as pointed out over and over and over and over, get the over part?In other words, just silly flap yap and no evidence to back your position.

The evidence we have to back our position is every word you guys say. You have not been correct in 30 years of prediction so you've just plain stopped that. Nothing measurable and nothing specific is your fraudsters mantra.
Thanks for proving our point.
But AGW freaks don`t really need any data they just fill in the gap with crap from "http://thinkprogress.org/tag/climate-change/" or computer "climate models" and post it here.ICESat, which stopped functioning in 2009, and its successor, ICESat-2, scheduled for launch in 2017.
So I`ve been curious what kind of data NASA has collected since then with "Ice Bridge".IceBridge will make two major contributions to cryospheric science:
1. Provide surface elevation data now that the ICESat-1 mission has ended, focused on areas undergoing rapid change that are critical to characterizing select areas of sea ice and modeling the processes that determine the mass balance of the terrestrial ice sheets.
IceBridge also allows more detailed studies over these areas
2. Support complementary measurements critical to ice models such as bed topography, grounding line position, and ice and snow thickness. These parameters cannot be measured by satellite, but can be measured from aircraft. They are the other great unknowns in understanding the ice in general and developing predictive models of sea level rise in response to climate change.
...and a dead link which circles back to the same portal.The NASA Pre-IceBridge ATM L0 Raw Ranges (BLATM0) data set contains raw elevation range measurements using the NASA Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) instrumentation. The data are stored in binary format and are available via FTP for periodic campaigns from 05 May 2005 to 30 October 2008.
Which means in plain English, that these computer model projections were based on crap (as usual).In recent years, computer model projections have shown an increasing dominance of surface melt, but a limited amount of glacier thickness data made pinpointing a figure for ice discharge difficult.

Surge In Greenland Ice Loss

Greenland’s contribution to global sea level has soared in the past two decades.
Instead of a "climate change reality show" it turned out to be first class comedy show:Reality TV stars crossing Northwest Passage on jet skis forced to cancel Arctic trek after costly rescue
Two fanciful expeditions to cross the Northwest Passage one on jet skis, the other in a rowboat have been turned back after crews found that their path through the Canadian Arctic was blocked by ice.
A group of Americans filming a reality TV show radioed for assistance from the Canadian Coast Guard icebreaker Sir Wilfrid Laurier after getting pinned by Arctic conditions on Sept. 3.
The seven men, filming a show called Dangerous Waters, are circumnavigating the globe on personal watercraft. This season, the goal was to cross the Northwest Passage, round the southern tip of Greenland and finish off by pulling into London, England.
Just like this one:Instead, they were bogged down by plummeting temperatures, a polar bear ripping apart one of their tents and the ocean freezing underneath them.
And more of the same in the Antarctic:Canadian military spent $2.7 million to rescue wealthy tourists off of breakaway ice floe
It cost Canadas military $2,748,046 to rescue wealthy tourists and a hunting party from a drifting Arctic ice floe this summer after planes and helicopters from five provinces were scrambled to the north while the tourists were being served dinner in a heated dining tent.
Highlighting the enormous costs of operating in Canadas far north, the astounding bill for the June operation does not even include the expenses for the RCMP or local rescuers who were also involved.
The rescue mission started after the tour group comprised of 10 tourists from Japan, Jordan, Australia, Britain, France, United States and Canada and 10 staff noticed the floe, 50 kilometres long and 25 km wide, was drifting toward the Northwest Passage.
There isn`t a whole lot of difference between the freaks that want to sue mankind for overheating the globe and melting the ice and those who sue McDonald`s for selling coffee that`s too hot or undue mental anguish and the intentional infliction of emotional distress,Oops: China's Antarctic Rescue Ship May Now Be Stuck Itself
Chinas lone research icebreaker, the MV Xue Long, may be stuck in thick Antarctic ice after a heroic rescue effort.
