In 1912, the Titanic hit an iceberg and was sinking. There were some survivors like Margaret Brown, who helped people out. It took roughly 2 hours and 40 minutes to sink. Melting ice is luring more luxury liners throughout the North arctic area. Melting ice causes lots of problems that the people living in the arctic have to handle. Melting ice can ruin homes, make arctic animals extinct, and it will be hard to travel throughout the arctic.
To get started, melting ice can ruin homes and also many structures. The Newsela Staff have stated, that the thin ice was hurting fisheries to the point where fishers have to fish in shallow waters.This means that the fishermen won’t be able to get the resources they need because of the melting ice. BBC News states, that there were reports of after the disaster, bad ice. So, if luxury liners were sailing, the melting ice may produce risks of sinking. To sum this up, melting ice can ruin …show more content…
CFR Backgrounders says that less white ice and more dark sea means that more solar radiation is absorbed into the ice. That means the heat waves from the sun, can cause the molecules in the solid (ice) to melt because the molecules in heat waves are faster than molecules within a cold solid. This can cause really hard travel since they usually travel by sled. “It grows into small sheets that look like pancakes, and eventually merge together to form large ice floes which can span miles. As the ice forms, it expels the salt, which increases the density of the surrounding water and thus plays a critical role in global ocean circulation.” This means that the more dense the ice is, the less the molecules are going to move and since it will be probably less denser, there is a chance that whoever travels around the arctic will probably fall through the ice. In conclusion, melting ice can be hard to travel throughout the
