About two-thirds of Earth's fresh water is locked in the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica, while an estimated 270, 000 square miles of glaciers persist at high elevations and latitudes on every continent except Australia.
As climate change drives rapid ice melt, sea levels are rising, and there are other impacts too—slowing ocean currents, lost opportunities to study the earth's natural history, and negative impacts to the plants, animals, and people who rely on these icy ecosystems.
Join us on May 20th from 7-8 pm ET to learn about the critical role that ice plays in our world and make a difference by taking action with the CAN app. You'll hear straight from acclaimed science fiction author Kim Stanley Robinson, and one of the world's leading ice-saving engineers, Dr. Leslie Fields of the Bright Ice Initiative.
