Arctic Ice Cap

Scientists announced Tuesday that the Arctic Ocean's ice cap will disappear in the summer as early as the 2030s, ten years earlier than anticipated.

Armed with a placard reading 'Youth Strike for Climate", 18-year-old British activist Mya-Rose Craig is staging the most northerly protest in a series of youth strikes worldwide.

From about 1550 to 1850, a global cold snap called the Little Ice Age supersized glaciers throughout the Arctic. On Canada's Ellesmere Island, Teardrop Glacier extended its frozen tongue across the landscape and swallowed a small tuft of moss.

Even if humanity stops global warming in its tracks at two degrees Celsius, long seen as the guardrail for a climate-safe world, Arctic sea ice will still disappear in some years, scientists have warned.

Formula E, the world's first fully-electric racing series, teamed up with Julius Baer, Visa, DHL, Schaeffler, The Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, and Mumm Champagne House to raise awareness about global warming and need for action on climate change by running its car on the Arctic ice cap.

Scientists have announced a potential solution to a tantalizing puzzle about sea-level rise that's remained unsolved for more than a decade. In doing so, they've helped confirm scientists' latest estimates of 20th-century glacial melting and our understanding of how sea-level rise fundamentally affects the planet - down to the way it spins on its a...

Imperiled polar bears will see a population crash in most parts of the Arctic Ocean if global greenhouse gas emissions continue at current rates, causing accelerated melting of the sea ice the bruins depend on for survival, US scientists said on Wednesday.

The Arctic sea ice this year has shrunk to sixth-lowest extent on record, bringing the days of an entirely ice-free Arctic during the summer closer to reality, scientists claim.
