The Arctic and Antarctica are poles apart when it comes to the effects of human-fueled climate change, scientists said on Friday: in the north, it is melting sea ice, but in the south, it powers winds that chill things down.

A new animation from NASA shows that Arctic sea ice loss over the past 28 years has been enormous... with potentially devastating consequences for the larger global environment.

There’s no need to rehash what we already know. The Arctic is Melting. It’s a fact that we are going to have to come to grips with. Shipping lanes are being changed, animals and natives are being displaced, and ice is disappearing faster than my digg friends when I attempt to swing the conversation away from bodily functions to politics.
