Greenland's ice is melting fast, scares scientists
Greenland ice cause a significant rise in sea levels.
The Greenland Ice Sheet plays an important role in the global climate system, with scientists
saying the ice sheet is experiencing some of the warmest temperatures on record.
According to scientists, if this temperature continues to rise at the same rate, by 2100 the
world's oceans will rise by 20 inches.
According to data from experts at the Alfred Wagner Institute, from 2001 to 2011, Greenland's .
Experts from the Alfred Wagner Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research (AWI)
have presented clear evidence that the effects of global warming have reached the remote,
high-altitude regions of central-northern Greenland.
Greenland has played a major role in global sea-level rise over the past 30-plus years as ice
melt has increased, with the region seven times higher than in the 1990s, according to a major
recent report. The snow is melting much faster.
According to experts, as a result of the increase in global temperature due to carbon emissions,
all the ice in Greenland will melt.
Experts say that about 3 million cubic kilometers of ice holds a huge amount of water, its
melting and the resulting rise in sea level is a sign of great danger.
