Reading & Listening for gist: Listen and read to find out. What
do you think would happen if the ice in the Arctic melted?

The melting of the polar ice caps will harm plants, people and wifdlife. It will
also lead to rising sea levels globally and make the planet become warmer,
causing problems for all of us.

3. Why is this a problem for local ecosystems?
The freshwater from the ice began to flow into the ocean, changing the local
environment forever. Without the ice, animals such as polar bears, walruses, and
seals must move to new areas and change their feeding habits. Many of these
marine mammals are at risk as their home continues to disappear into the ocean.

Expressing an
opinion

I think/ I believe/ In my opinion, ….

I believe that climate change affects the whole planet. The rise in the
Earth’s temperature causes the ice caps to melt and the sea levels to
rise. This can lead to a great loss of land. The temperatures in my
country have changed significantly, especially in some big cities.

Sample
When the ice caps melt, the sea level isn’t directly affected because
this ice is already in the ocean. But scientists say that floating ice
shelves act as dams to glaciers, which are flowing rivers of ice.
However after 2002, when a big part of an ice cap broke and began
flowing into the sea more quickly, it made the sea levels rise globally.
Now scientists say that parts of land might disappear and the freezing
water will fill up the sea. If this happens, the freezing air will rush in
from the poles to spark another ice age. This means that animal and
plant species and even humans might disappear from Earth as they
did many billion years ago.
