It is a common hypothesis that if the current rate of global warming continues, the ice over the Arctic ocean will come down almost completely in 2050, turning into a million square kilometers of a floating an ice floes. It turned out that the melting of massifs could will happen decades earlier.
According to a study ... , the complete clearing of the ocean from the ice will occur between 2030 and 2040 years.
This may be facilitated by variations in temperature in the tropical Pacific, which varies by an average of half a degree over a 10 to 30-year cycle. This writes Geophysical Research Letters.
Earlier on the website " VM " reported that scientists have warned about the threat of extinction of ocean clouds."
As an analogy, we can consider the situation with the Aral sea.
It was drying up, was drying up...
I don't remember whether any specific dates were called when the Aral sea would dry up...
Then the opinion spread: the Aral sea dried up.
Then passed still some time. Something began to do, to look at "it", the made, and thoughtfully discuss some details, as if hinting that an all is not lost yet...
If to return to the themes of Novaya Zemlya, polar bears in the Arctic, killer whales and white whales to Primorye, then there is an impression that some sluggish, short-sighted (limited) (narrow), self-interested people with surprise are looking at an occurring (on an approaching) events and on alarmed people and something are telling (options: "You have nothing to do!", "Let's think about today!", "Think of money and of your pocket!").
In every story about a large sunken ship there is a commander of the ship, the captain's assistants, etc.
It is also interesting that the lucky captains (for example, Francis Drake, or - Ivan Kruzenshtern, Yuri Lisyansky) repeatedly found themselves in critical situations, but thanks to prudent, adequate, energetic actions had high potential of success.
