Greenland may actually be green as its ice sheet melts.
Greenland is losing it ice sheet at an alarming rate due to warming waters.
The ice sheet is melting six times faster than it was just a few decades ago. This rapid melting of the ice sheet is causing the ocean to rise more and more every year.
These rising Sea levels threatens 70% of the worlds population. Along with life on land, sea life will also be affected by rising sea levels.
Scientists now believe that the ice sheet is melting like an ice cube in water. These warmer tides are theorized to have come from the gulf stream.
Despite all the theories, scientists are still trying to figure out how to slow or possibly stop the ice sheet from melting further.
