This changing in the water levels is very perilous to the great animals of the arctic, and don't think the southern ice caps are any safer they are being melted to. The reason this bad for us, even though we live in the center of the earth, is that this melting of the ice caps will cause the earth to try and repair itself. The way it will do that is by creating a second ice age by freezing all its water. By doing this the earth will destroy all pollutants, remove greenhouse gases, and eliminate high water levels. We as humans will more than likely adjust to these conditions and survive for the estimated hundreds of years that this ice age will last, but it will be extremely difficult and as we are not used to such cold many of us will freeze to death before we adjust to these changes.
Still we can prevent this second ice, we must decrease pollutants by ten fold. We must increase our services to the environment by twenty fold. We must stop the burning the of fossil fuels and use more environmentally friendly fuels. We must also put a stop to smoking and other pollutants that are caused simple because we wish for momentary pleasure. I think you want to save the planet don't you?! Well then throw away that cigarette, plant a tree, or walk and ride your bike for transportation instead of your car as much as possible. I hope my article has inspired you to do something about global warming instead of sitting back and let other do something.
