January 31, 2011Pearl Mounts Ice Floe To Raise Awareness For Its Melt
January 28, 2011“Pearl!” I called down to the Hudson. “I know you feel a special sympathy for polar bears–” (I think it’s the white fur/ black nose thing)–”but, seriously, this is going too far.”
“Errruuurrrmmmmmm,” Pearl replied.
Setting Pearl aside for a minute (while she’s still within range), it’s hard for us in the frigid Eastern U.S. to focus on the fact that this has been the second of two freakishly warm winters in the Arctic. Scientists postulate that this is part of the reason for all the “excess” cold both here and in Europe–the circulation of various Polar jet streams has broken from usual vortexes, allowing arctic air to swoop down in exchange for warmer air swooping up. Some scientists are concerned that this two-year change may signal long-term damage to a so-called arctic “fence” –see an article about it here.
In the meantime—”Pearrrrrrllll!”
