Global warming: 28 trillion tons of ice melted on Earth in last 26 years

London, Ta. 26 August 2020, Tuesday

Over the years pollution and global warming have become major challenges to the world. Both of these are causing harmful changes in the Earth's atmosphere. The worst effects of global warming are being felt especially in the polar regions. Ice is melting due to global warming. Millions of years old glaciers are melting. How many icebergs have been completely destroyed. Over the past 26 years, 28 trillion tons of ice on Earth have melted. That means 28,000,000,000,000,000 kg of ice has been destroyed.

The research was carried out by a team of British scientists. The team reports that 28 trillion tons of ice have been destroyed on Earth since 1994. For this research, the scientists have analyzed the satellite image, the snow details of the poles, the information about the snow on the mountains. It turned out that the ice was melting rapidly due to rising global temperatures.

The scientists' findings are published in the journal Science, called Cryosphere Discussions. If

If the earth's ice continues to melt at this rate, the earth will not be able to reflect the sun's rays. Causing the sun's ultraviolet rays to harm living things on earth. Ice plays a very important role in reflecting solar radiation.

Not only this, with the melting of ice the sea level is also rising. This will cause some countries, islands and regions to be submerged. If the ice continues to melt at this rate, the sea level will rise by three feet by the end of the century.

The report states that 60 percent of the ice in the Northern Hemisphere and 40 percent of the ice in the Southern Hemisphere have melted. The rate of melting of ice was 0.8 trillion per year in 1990, which has now increased to 1.2 trillion tons per year. This is the first time that melting ice has been studied worldwide, when melting ice has only been studied in the polar region.
