Polar Ice Cap Melting Alarm

Last September 21st, as the Northern Hemisphere tilted away

from the

sun,

scientists reported with unprecedented alarm that the North Polar ice

cap is, in their words, falling off a cliff.

One study estimated that it could be completely gone during

summer in

less than twenty-two years.

Another new study to be presented by US Navy researchers later

this week warns it could happen in as little as seven years.

Seven years from now.
