The Arctic and Antarctic regions are home to some of the coldest and unapproachable landscapes in existence‚ making them the two of the most underdeveloped areas known to man.

While our team was composed of completely different preference types (as classified by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator)‚ we believe that such varying opinions led to our group’s success in the Subarctic Survival Simulation. In fact‚ our group boasted the highest team percentage change in the activity—43 percent. The team percentage change represents the improvements made in the ranking of survival tools through our team’s discussion from our individual assessments. The change shows how the group’s

This article explains how climate change has been rapidly melting the Arctic over the course of a few years. As a result‚ the faster the arctic melts the more damage will be done to the ecosystem‚ planet‚ and humans. A few examples of how drastically climate change has shaped the North are that the sea ice covering the Arctic Ocean began to decrease in size when it should have been increasing in size. Also‚ temperatures at the North Pole rose more than 20 degrees Celsius. These changes are causing
