Global Warming- Specific Awareness

I have a few smaller topics i'm currently choosing from.

The glacier retreat and the melting of polar ice-caps.

Glacier : is a large, slow-moving river of ice, formed from compacted layers of snow, that slowly deforms and flows in response to gravity and high pressure.

Glacier Retreat
Glacier retreat is worldwide and rapid, affects the availability of fresh water for irrigation and domestic use, mountain recreation, animals and plants that depend on glacier-melt, and in the longer term, the level of the oceans

http://en.wikipedia.org
A condition occurring when backward melting at the front of a glacier takes place at a rate exceeding forward motion.
