Average US family destroys 200 sq m Arctic ice every year
Greenhouse gas emissions from an average four-member US family causes the loss of 200 square metre of Arctic sea ice annually, according to climatology experts. The study further stated, the shrinkage of the Arctic ice cap has progressed in direct correlation with the amount of human-generated greenhouse gases.
