The polar ice caps are extremely sensitive to climate change. According to the National Snow and Ice Data Center at the University of Colorado, "even a small increase in temperature can lead to greater warming over time," and begin a chain reaction that leads to a cycle of warming and melting. The warmer air melts the surface of the ice cap, producing meltwater ponds. In addition to snow-melt flowing off the ice cap, it also trickles into the ice through cracks and fissures, eroding and thinning the ice. In recent years, this process has caused ice shelves to collapse, glaciers to retreat and sea ice to melt faster than snow can accumulate. Because ice then has less reflective capability, it absorbs more solar energy, which causes even more melting. Nowhere is this more evident than at the polar ice caps. If the current warming trend continues, the National Resources Defense Council speculates that "summers in the Arctic could become ice-free by the end of the century."

Water needs to be at or under a certain temperature (usually it's 32 degrees Fahrenheit) to be solid (ice). When it goes above that temperature, the heat makes the particles in the ice to move around, spreading the water out.
Ice cream is meant to be kept in the cold. It doesn't do well in heat, causing it to melt. It's because cold doesn't go with hot...
Heat, just like an ice cube, heat cause the internal temperature to raise, which in turns cause the ice berg to melt on the outside.
heat, when applied to ice, destabilises the molecules of water, causing them to lose structure within the ice

Yes, increase in pressure causes the freezing point to drop.
Glaciers and ice caps are melting. The ice over Greenland is melting and so is the Arctic sea ice.
Ice cream melting (or pretty much anything melting) is an endothermic process in that it requires the absorption of heat energy in order to occur. An example of an exothermic process is the burning of paper which gives off heat energy.
Melting ice turns the ice into water.
Melting occur at the melting point. The solid is transformed in a liquid.
