Why does the melting of the ice caps lower the concentration of salt in the ocean?
The ice caps are made of freshwater.
What are some slogans for polar ice caps melting?
i am melting can you see me ?
Why are ice caps on mountains not melting?
Ice caps and glaciers are melting. They melt during summer and build up again during winter, especially if snow falls. One or two glaciers in the world are actually increasing. But most glaciers and ice caps are losing ice.
What are the reactions of global warming?
The ploar ice caps are melting.
How is it that global warming is heating up the earth and melting the ice caps but the earth is also cooling down over time?
Melting Ice Caps in no way indicate a cooling Earth.
Are Earth's ice caps melting or growing?
they are melting, because we are using cars and planes a lot and that generates carbon dioxide, which heats up the planet. because it cant escape through the atmosphereit heats up the earth thus melting the ice caps.

Are humans responsible for polar ice caps melting?
The arctic ice caps are melting because of global warming. The strong consensus of climate scientists is that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, and deforestation, are responsible for gloabal warming. So, yes, humans are responsible for polar ice caps melting.
What are the melting polar ice caps affecting the most?
warming.
