Polar Ice Melting 

Ice burg in Greenland

Scientist have found that the ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica have been melting 3 times as fast as they were in 1990. They believe that this increase is caused by the additional carbon emissions in the atmosphere. The sea levels have increased slightly from the ice melting and may have contributed to super storm Sandy and may cause more extreme weather. Greenland is the biggest concern and is melting at a very fast rate. 

This is another article about global warming and is another example of why the Climate Talks are important. Hopefully they will be able to make a plan for dealing with these issues and preparing for the changes that will come from them.
