Global warming is accelerated by the reduction of global snow and ice cover?

Global warming is accelerated by the reduction of snow and ice cover because ice and snow reflect sunlight back into space, which helps cool the Earth. As ice and snow melt, darker surfaces are exposed, which absorb more heat and further warm the planet in a feedback loop. This can lead to more melting, sea level rise, and changes in weather patterns.
