In fact, temperatures around the world are 0.8&deg;C higher than they were in 1920. This might not sound like a lot, but it has a terrible effect on the ice in polar regions, as it causes them to melt. The melting of the polar ice caps not only harms the local plants, people and wildlife but it also leads to rising sea levels globally, causing problems for us all.</p> <p>One of the most serious disasters to hit the polar regions is the breaking of the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf. It is the largest single block of ice in the Arctic. It has been around for 3,000 years and began breaking apart in the year 2000.</p> <p>As a result, the freshwater from the ice began to flow into the ocean, changing the local environment forever. Without the ice, animals such as polar bears, walruses, and seals must move to new areas and change their feeding habits. Many of these marine mammals are at risk as their home continues to disappear into the ocean.</p> <p>However, the fast melting of the Arctic ice doesn&rsquo;t only have local effects. As ice caps become smaller and thinner, the Earth takes in more energy from the Sun and the planet becomes warmer. We really need to take notice and wonder: Are we skating on thin ice?</p> <p><strong>Lời giải chi tiết:</strong></p> <p>- The melting of the polar ice caps will harm plants, people and wildlife. It will also lead to rising sea levels globally and make the planet become warmer, causing problems for all of us.</p> <div id="eJOY__extension_root" class="eJOY__extension_root_class"></div> </div> <div id="sub-question-2" class="box-question top20"> <p><strong>B&agrave;i 2</strong></p> <p><strong>2.

Do you think climate change is a problem in other parts of the world? Have temperatures changed in your country? Tell the class.</strong></p> <p><strong>Lời giải chi tiết:</strong></p> <p>I believe that climate change affects the whole planet. The rise in the Earth&rsquo;s temperature causes the ice caps to melt and the sea levels to rise. This can lead to a great loss of land. The temperatures in my country have changed significantly, especially in some big cities.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </div> <div id="sub-question-4" class="box-question top20"> <p><strong>B&agrave;i 4</strong></p> <p><strong>4. Collect information about other effects that the melting of polar ice caps will have on the Earth. Present it to the class.</strong></p> <p><strong>Lời giải chi tiết:</strong></p> <p>When the ice caps melt, the sea level isn&rsquo;t directly affected because this ice is already in the ocean. But scientists say that floating ice shelves act as dams to glaciers, which are flowing rivers of ice. However, after 2002, when a big part of an ice cap broke and began flowing into the sea more quickly, it made the sea levels rise globally. Now scientists say that parts of land might disappear and the freezing water will fill up the sea. If this happens, the freezing air will rush in from the poles to spark another ice age. This means that animal and plant species and even humans might disappear from Earth as they did many billion years ago.</p> </div>
