Human-generated climate change has caused both air and ocean temperatures to rise significantly. The impact of temperature rise has reduced the thickness and circumference of Arctic sea ice. With less and less ice to repel the rays of the sun, the temperature rise is becoming increasingly exponential. With less and less ice, animal habitats are disintegrating and being forced inland to foreign terrain. If life continues at this unstable rate of temperature rise, there will be no more ice by the year 2100.

Climate change must be a priority of concern for any chance of saving the animal habitat as well as our own. We will feel the heat just as much as they do.
