Ice Shelfs

September 03, 2008

Arctic warming much faster than expected.

Ellesmere Island has now lost 10 times more shelf ice this summer than scientists predicted on July 30.



Over the last 100 years, Ellesmere Island has lost over 91% of its ice shelf which was 4000 years old. Rare ecosystems that have never been studies have washed to the see and are forever lost.

Global warming damage is already irreversible but we can still do something to prevent the worst to happen.
