Arctic Ice Melt & Temperatures Pass Point Of No Return

Bad news for the earth today: surface temperatures in the arctic are 7° higher than normal, meaning that the arctic is warming at a rate faster than the rest of the world — and it’s happening more than 10 years before it was expected to.Bad news for the earth today: surface temperatures in the arctic are 7° higher than normal, meaning that the arctic is warming at a rate faster than the rest of the world — and it’s happening more than 10 years before it was expected to. This is what scientists are calling the “point of no return,” or “the tipping point” that will lead to ice-free summers in the area. Later today, scientists in San Francisco will be giving a presentation stating that this process has been going on for the past 5 years, and shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon. It’s more important now than ever to start taking steps to cutting down greenhouse gases. Spread the word about these catastrophic events occurring as we speak.
