Light is a form of energy that can easily convert into heat energy. Heat energy can change ice from its solid phase into its liquid form--- pure water.
The color of ice will affect how fast it melts due to its impact on the absorption of sunlight. Darker colors absorb more sunlight and heat, causing ice to melt faster compared to lighter colors that reflect more sunlight. This phenomenon is known as the albedo effect, where darker colors have lower albedo and absorb more heat energy. Therefore, the color of ice can influence its melting rate.
The reason the ice in the Antarctica does not melt away when sunlight shines upon it is because the whiteness of the ice reflects most of the light back into space. But as a result of global warming, much more ice are being melted now than before. And thus without the ice, more sea will appear. And with the sea, there were not as much ice to reflect the sunlight back into space, therefore more of the sunlight and its heat were absorbed by earth, and thus more and more ice will melt.
heat
Ice and snow are highly reflective; when sunlight hits them, most of it bounces off. Ashes are dark and absorb sunlight (and other radiant energy) and capture sunlight and cause the warm ashes to melt the ice and snow beneath them.
Mud has a lower albedo (reflectivity) compared to ice, meaning it absorbs more sunlight and heat. This leads to melting of ice when it comes into contact with mud because the mud transfers its heat to the ice, causing it to melt.
explain the effects of the sunlight striking earth
clean ice reflects sunlight back into space and prevents heat buidup on ice, dirty ice has the opposite affect

None. There are no side effects to eating ice cream on a regular basis.
The effects of ice wind and rain on rocks is called erosion.
ice.
Sprinkling soot over ice in the Arctic or Antarctic could darken the ice's surface, decreasing its reflectivity. This can result in the ice absorbing more sunlight and warming up faster, potentially accelerating melting. Additionally, the presence of soot can alter the albedo of the ice, leading to further feedback effects on climate.
The chocolate ice cream would attract more sunlight.

Chocolate Icecream has stronger laxative effects than any other ice cream
Some of the ice melts, but since it's so thick -- 90% of the earth's store of ice is in the Antarctic ice sheet -- the sun doesn't shine hot enough to melt more ice than is frozen there during periods when there is no sunlight.
