During an expedition by the Canadian military, dramatic evidence of the break-up of the Arctic ice-cap was founded. The team found a network of cracks that stretched for more than 10 miles (16km) on Ward Hunt, the area's largest shelf.
The expedition's scientists were astonished to see these new cracks, they explaine that the ice shelf is disintegrating, the pieces are together like a puzzle but could float away.
We are starting to see very dramatic changes. We had 23% less sea ice last year than we've ever had.
After the record Arctic melting last year, all eyes are now on what happens to the sea ice this summer. It's very worrying that in the last 4 years the sea ice has disappeared more than in the last 20 years.
Every year we will see more and more changes, the planet temperature will increase, the seasons will become unpredictable, etc. We have to start thinking in controling the climate change as a need and an obligation because we all are responsable to take care of the planet.
