How will the melting of the polar ice caps and glaciers affect the way we live?
How can we expect that our global climate will change in years to come? It appears that when glaciers start to melt, which are very heavy sheets of ice, they create a type of glacial pressure. As can be assumed, glacial ice is very heavy and thick. That means that they place a strong pressure on the surface of the earth. However, when the glaciers begin to melt, and they are melting at a faster rate than ever due to global warming, the glacial pressure that is natural begins to dissipate. What happens when glacial pressure begins to be reduced due to global warming? When glaciers melt, the pressure they once exerted upon the surface of the earth becomes dramatically reduced. When this happens, geologists tell us, all sorts of things can happen. All kinds of geologic reactions occur when glaciers begin to melt. For instance, many of the geologic reactions that are thought to occur include an increase occurrence in tsunamis (which are caused by underwater earthquakes), an increase in ear
