Troubled waters in Arctic
Description: The Arctic isn't nearly as bright and white as it used to be because of more ice melting in the ocean. With more dark, open water in the Arctic Ocean during summer months, less of the sun's heat is reflected back into space. Therefore, the entire Earth absorbs more heat, according to a new study.
