What if winter were no longer cold?  What if there was little or no snow for skiing, no hard frosts to kill off insect pests or bring out the sap of a maple tree to make that delicious syrup?  How would polar bears and other animals that need the cold survive?

There is no more compelling time keeper of the urgency of climate change than the condition of the Arctic. Sea ice in the Arctic is like Earth's air conditioner - it helps reflect sunlight back into space, as well as regulating the complex pattern of global weather and temperatures.
