Massive Arctic Ice Cap Is Shrinking, Study Shows; Rate Accelerating Since 1985

This weeks article is about how one of the largest ice pieces over Canada has shrunk. This piece is part of Devon island. 50 years of data show that between 1961 and 1985 the ice piece has lost a lot of ice. The reason for this changes are because of the warm summers. Since global warming that area has been affected a lot and it takes years for the ice to increase. Besides, it has also thin and shrink. This can really affect sea level and ship traffic.

Our opinion is that this is a really important issue we need to resolve now. This is a problem that can cause us our lives and planet. Again we see another affect on Global Warming and this time we are talking about one of the largest ice island of North Canada. This can really affect us because this can cause increase on sea level which can flood the surroundings of our country like the beach and can drown a lot of people. Besides we like to go to the beach. We believe this needs to be solved quick ly with the collaboration of all the world. We hope we see a change soon.
