Polar Ice Caps

Earth's climate and surface are in constant change and always have been.  The vastness of the Earth and Mother Nature's unpredictable attitude, however, make conclusions about this change controversial.  With that being said, one can see the climate is warming and with it, the ice caps are melting.  I think this warming and melting will lead to higher sea levels and beach erosion across the globe.  I think many are nervous of the unknowns this will cause to the Earth's weather patterns.  It is scary to think about the unknown.  The Earth  sustains life and I think if we can maintain the current status of the climate, we should at least try.  If the sea level rises and temperatures across the ocean change, I can see the pattern of extreme weather continuing to increase.  I think it will negatively impact areas, but am also curious to see if areas such as deserts might change and become more habitable.  No one has exact answers and I think the wise thought is to do what we can to combat climate change and stop the ice from melting (or at least slow it down!).
