THE ARCTIC
A PRECIOUS ENVIRONMENT
TO PROTECT

 

The Arctic is an essential environment for maintaining the planet’s environmental and climatic balance. The surface of the glaciers reflects 80% of the sun's heat back into the atmosphere, slowing ocean warming.
The last 30 years have seen an unprecedented acceleration in ice melting:

  • 28 trillion tonnes of ice have been lost, corresponding to 1,300 billion tonnes annually
  • The melting rate has increased by 65%
  • Iceland has lost 800 km of its ice since 1999
