Climate scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are warning the Arctic may be ice free by the summer by 2040 due to global warming.
Scientists sounded the alarm on a Wednesday press call that comes after the north pole hit record low winter sea ice coverage in February. NOAA’s warning of an ice-free Arctic are consistent with warnings given by other researchers over the past few years.
Scientists warned that Arctic ice will melt faster as temperatures grow hotter, which they warn is harming the region’s ecology — zooplankton are losing fat content which could harm fish in the area that feed on these organisms.
Sounds alarming, but is an ice-free Arctic really something to worry about?

I believe they said the same thing 25 years ago.

I thought all the ice was gone a couple years ago - a few mountains were supposed to have melted down to bare rock too.
I can't stand the tension of waiting for it to all happen....

could the zooplankton have less fat because they have become more active as the temps have warmed a bit, for whatever reason?"If you don't eat your food, we have to throw it in the ocean and the zooplankton will get fat."

Climate scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are warning the Arctic may be ice free by the summer by 2040 due to global warming. Baloney! I have it on good authority, or at least The Won's, that sea levels would begin to fall if he was elected, and he was, twice, so this is obvious propaganda.

Okay, if they think that, what is their GUARANTEED solution to prevent it?

Great news! This should open up the Arctic to tourism and development! Not to mention a certain northern resident enjoying the warmth!
