I took a look at the future prospects of these emblems of the North, and whether they'll be able to survive a warmer future. It's not a rosy picture, but there is hope.

There was an avalanche of Bad Ice News this year. I asked some polar experts what the research is telling us about the ice sheets and their devastating potential.
"It is hard to stay optimistic."

This Was a Terrible, Horrible, No Good Year for Polar Ice
