Ice Melting


It’s the melting of ice and snow has a consequence of rising temperatures due to global warming. Large-scale ice melt would also raise sea levels and flood coastal areas, currently home to about half the world's. Some of the most dramatic reports come from the Polar Regions, which are warming faster than the planet as a whole and have lost large amounts of ice in recent decades. people.

Changes in the climate threaten life in the Arctic. The polar bear population is expected to decline by 30 percent in the next 35 to 50 years due to disappearing habitat induced by global warming. Warming induced changes in tundra vegetation and plant life threaten caribou and migratory bird populations. Loss of sea ice and wildlife also makes indigenous life in the Arctic increasingly difficult, endangering an entire way of life.

I think this is a big problem that affects everyone. As it is an issue that affects everyone and it’s most of all created by human being I think people should worry more about this problem and try to found solutions for it! Because I think the world can be a better place if everyone collaborates. And... why to ruin if we can improve?!
