Arctic Emergency: Scientists Speak On Melting Ice and Global Impacts (1080p HD) REMASTERED VERSION NOW AVAILABLE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHziSe96UHY&feature=youtu.be *** Addendums to credits are located at the bottom of video description *** This film brings you the voices of climate scientists - in their own words. Rising temperatures in the Arctic are contributing the melting sea ice, thawing permafrost, and destabilization of a system that has been called "Earth's Air Conditioner". Global warming is here and is impacting weather patterns, natural systems, and human life around the world - and the Arctic is central to these impacts. ------------------------------------------------- Scientists featured in the film include: - Jennifer Francis, PhD.
