No, ice melts carbon dioxide
Gas does not directly cause Ice to melt. However if you are talking about glaciers then the gas Carbon Dioxide (CO2) causes the earths atmosphere to heat up (because it traps more of the Sun's heat) and this causes glaciers to melt - because the Earths climate is hotter.
Solid carbon dioxide has the look and feel of ice (and is even colder). But it does not melt to a liquid, but sublimates to form a gas. So it is always dry.
When ice is dropped into hot water, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the water. The heat from the water is transferred to the ice, causing it to melt and eventually reach thermal equilibrium with the water.

Dry ice is carbon dioxide in solid form. CO2's melting point is -78oC

Dry ice is nothing more then frozen carbon dioxide. It is frozen to -109.6°F. Dry ice doesn't actually melt. It turns in to carbon dioxide gas through a process called Sublimation.

dry ice is actually solid carbon dioxide . it does not melt coz it directly sublimes into gaseous stat
Dry ice, or solid carbon dioxide, camphor are two examples.
When ice is dropped into hot water, the ice will melt due to the higher temperature of the water. The heat from the water is transferred to the ice, causing it to melt and eventually reach thermal equilibrium with the water.
Dry Ice. Unlike water, Carbon Dioxide doesn't melt, it sublimates; going directly from solid to gas without going through liquid.

Solid Carbon Dioxide is known as 'dry ice'.
carbon dioxide ice
Dry Ice is frozen carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide (at atmospheric pressure) changes straight from a gas to a solid when cooled, and straight from solid to gas when warmed. If you filled a bath with dry ice and let it "melt" you would get a bath full of carbon dioxide gas. If you lay in it there is a potential for suffocation as the gas is heavier than air and will have displaced the air from the bath.
