Arctic sea ice is declining when it should be growing...

I read this article from Business Insider on the Arctic sea and actually found it very interesting/scary. The article explained that every year the ice in the Arctic goes up and down with the seasons, but this year there has been a downward trend in ice..and the article blames global warming (which i totally agree). The article stated that we are at an all time low this time of year for ice in the Arctic. One really interesting part about this article is a video from NASA that was posted with the article showing the a map of the Arctic sea over the years..Heres the video

This video is so crazy to me! I don't know about you guys, but topics related to global warming issues and climate concerns really freak me out! I really hope something can be figured out about these global warming issues!

  1. Global warming is a serious issue, and you have good cause to be concerned. It's easy to let yourself get overwhelmed with the issues we face on an environmental issue though, and that kind of anxiety helps no one! I deal with this pretty much daily. You can make a small difference in the lifestyle you choose though! Keep doing your own research and do everything YOU can to minimize your impact. Because, if you think about it, if we all started trying to minimize our impact, we would minimize it as a population, which is the goal right?
