Think of all the freon they must have vented back then!
Zero. Freon started in the forties.

US Weather Bureau Report
The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing
scarcer and in
some places the seals are finding the water too hot,
according to a
report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consul
Ifft, at
Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and
explorers, he
declared, all point to a radical change in climate
conditions and
hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone.
Exploration
expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with
as far
north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of
3,100 meters
showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice
have been
replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report
continued, while
at many points well known glaciers have entirely
disappeared. Very few
seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic,
while vast
shoals of herring and smelts, which have never before
ventured so far
north, are being encountered in the old seal fishing
grounds.


I am sorry, I neglected to mention that this report was from
November
2, 1922 as reported by the AP and published in The
Washington Post.
