ARCTIC AFTER 2058

                               Arctic may become ice free for several months of the year, starting sometime during the years 2054 to 2058, a combined team of researchers from the US and China has predicted. Using a climate simulation tool, scientists have projected that the Arctic will become September ice free after the next 40 years, ice-free in this context refers to a time period during any year, more specifically, during the September after withstanding the heat of summer, researchers said.

                           A warmer planet would mean warmer temperatures in the Arctic- enough warming and Arctic would eventually become ice-free during part of the year, the most alarming is that, when all the ice melted, the sea level will risen very high, so many parts of the lands will gone beneath the sea.
