Goodbye Arctic Sea Ice
Arctic sea ice is expected to retreat to a record low by the end of this summer, scientists have predicted. Measurements made by the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) showed the extent of sea ice on 8 August was almost 30% below the long-term average. Because the region’s melting season runs until the middle of September, scientists believe this summer will end with the lowest ice cover on record. Researchers have forecast ice-free summers in the Arctic by 2040.

Comments are sorta kinda broken right now. We're working on it but to save energy can only work in daytime when solar system is at peak performance.
