Certainly when the sun turns into a red giant. Prior to that no one can say with certainty.
Actually, they do melt and they move around.
They do. It just a slow process.
After breaking off a glacier or ice sheet, icebergs can float in the ocean and drift with ocean currents. They may eventually melt, break apart further, or run aground. Some icebergs may also pose a hazard to ships navigating in the area.
Melting of icebergs refers to the process of icebergs turning from solid ice into liquid water due to rising temperatures. As the temperatures warm, the icebergs lose mass and volume as they melt, contributing to rising sea levels. This phenomenon is a result of climate change and poses a threat to coastal communities and ecosystems.
If all the iceberg melt, the whole world will be flooded. Besides, It will change the air flow (both cold and hot air) and will cause abnormal weather. Iceberg also contains frozen carbon monoxide, which will be released to atmosphere if they melt. There are many more affect of icebergs melt. On the other hand, if there are too many icebergs, it will change eco-system which will have both direct and indirect impacts on environment.
Icebergs float north until they melt completely.
Yes, they always melt. They absorb thermal energy (as in heat) which will cause it to heat up and melt little by little. I'm not sure this is true. Large icebergs usually break up before they melt, so, technically, they don't melt. It's the smaller ice bergs that melt. The "large icebergs" cease to exist at the point when they break up, so they don't last long enough to melt. Also, some large icebergs end up fusing back into the glacier they calved from. These icebergs cease to exist at that point, before they ever had a chance to melt. One way or another, every iceberg will, eventually, cease to exist. But it's not always by melting.

The temp of the ozone layer has no affect on icebergs.
Due to global warming, the icebergs are melting. If the icebergs melt, the ploar bears will become extinct due to the fact that many of them live on icebergs.
The plural of ice is ices. As in "eat your ices before they melt".
I don't think you and I have much choice in the matter. They melt on their own as the move to warmer waters.
Icebergs are the only freshwater part of an ocean. When icebergs melt, it results in a decrease in the salinity of ocean water.
The lifespan of an iceberg can vary greatly, typically ranging from a few months to several years. Factors influencing this lifespan include the size of the iceberg, water temperature, and environmental conditions. Icebergs can gradually melt as they drift into warmer waters or break apart due to stress and collisions. Ultimately, most icebergs will completely melt away before they drift too far from their origin.
I am not sure that anybody actually does it, but I read a proposal to tug icebergs to hot dry places and melt them down for a fresh water supply.
