Researchers are testing a geoengineering method in Cambridge Bay, Canada, to refreeze Arctic sea ice. The Real Ice project pumps ocean water onto the ice surface, thickening it and reflecting more sunlight. While controversial, it's a research effort to explore potential solutions to climate change.
Antarctica's west coast is experiencing a severe deficit of winter sea ice in the Bellingshausen Sea, with an area the size of France missing. This alarming trend raises concerns for penguins, marine life, and global sea levels, and may have intensified a recent heatwave on the continent.
A UK-funded geoengineering experiment in Cambridge Bay, Canada, is pumping ocean water onto sea ice to thicken it and combat rapid melting due to climate change. The "Real Ice" project aims to test the feasibility and safety of refreezing Arctic ice, with potential benefits for local communities and global climate.
An area of Antarctica comparable to France has failed to form winter sea ice in the Bellingshausen Sea, alarming scientists. This unusual event, coinciding with a heatwave, raises concerns for penguins, marine ecosystems, and sea-level rise.
Scientists express concern over the Bellingshausen Sea in West Antarctica, which is missing a 'France-sized' chunk of winter sea ice, approximately 650,000 sq km. This area, typically ice-covered in June, remains largely ice-free, raising fears it may not reform.

US President Donald Trump’s landmark visit to China comes as the Iran war disrupts global energy supplies, fuels economic uncertainty and adds fresh strain to Washington-Beijing ties. In the first part of a series examining how rivalry, interdependence and geopolitical crises are reshaping the relationship between the two powers, we look at the Arctic as an arena for competition. The Arctic is heating up, both physically and in terms of geopolitics. As Arctic warming accelerates and sea ice...
