VIVAnews -climate change is now one of the biggest enemies of the continent the Arctic. How are, conditions not being created because of this potential environmental pollution disrupt the ecosystem that is there.

Expected, in the year 2100 will be, will the trees distributed as 500 km north of the continent are shrouded in the eternal ice.

This situation will in the sea of ice cream making Artika easily melt. Then go change the structure of the country are interesting species of trees of animals such as foxes on the road to the North or the South such as pine trees.

"Changes like this happen faster than we expected ten years ago," said Aevar Petersen, President of the conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAF), as quoted from Scientific American, May 14, 2011.

"From this moment until 2100, scientists estimate the trees will move up to 500 km north of the continent of Antarctica," Petersen continued.

When this happens, Petersen stressed, then half-Tundra (the polar ice Cap) that spread from Siberia to Canada will disappear.

According to Peterson, in some places, Bush pines South has taken over the position of the grass, MOSS and lichen tundra. "The trees spread to the North quickly," beber Peterson.

As the informed, CAF is supported by the Governing Council of the Antarctic from the United States, Russia, Canada, and the five Nordic countries. At this time, were the Minister for Foreign Affairs of those countries agreed to regional cooperation in anticipation of this situation to improve.

Other experts say, the famous wood such as Stora ENSO or Abiti da will not be benefited by climate change. The reason, the condition of the area of good plants as potentially bring in pests that many to forest fires.

The warming that took place in Artika indeed two times faster than a warming world. This is because the soil due to melting ice tereksposnya or dark-colored water more heat from the Sun will absorb.

"If the ice is melting, we are concerned about the condition of the polar bear," said Petersen. "Absolutely no place to go," he continued. "An international report last week projected that Artika lining of ice on 30 to 40 years lost." (eh)
