Arctic Ice Melt Continues: Second Year of Low Levels

RFI

The Arctic ice is at a record low. This is happening for a second winter in a row. Climate change is causing less ice to form.

Scientists have found that the Arctic sea ice has reached the lowest levels ever recorded. This has happened twice in a row during the winter. The ice normally melts in the summer and then returns in the winter. However, because of climate change, the ice is not reforming as much. This is a serious problem for the Arctic region and the world's climate.
