The Arctic Ocean could be free of ice in the summer as soon as 2010 or 2015 -- something that hasn't happened for more than a million years, according to a leading polar researcher. Earlier, they had forecasted the Arctic Ocean could be free of summer ice as early as 2050.

It is very unfortunate news!! Human should be alert at least now and do their duty for environment protection. Global warming is faster then ever. Hence ice is melting from all the ice bodies all over the world.

It is wake up call!!

The news is really shocking. But the human race is either not likely to learn and if if we are aware, we are not likely to work as a team. All nations must cooperate. But each nation is expecting others to reduce global warming doing nothing herself.

If Arctic Ocean get free of ice, there will be dangerous effect to whole climate system of world. Cyclones, flood, rise in sea level, global coastal events etc may be the after effects. In India itself there are many coastal cities like Mumbai, Chennai, Trivandrum, Mangalore, Goa, Vizag, Cochin etc. and in these cities, many regions are below sea-level.
