Ice911 Research chose to focus on the Arctic because it's the area where they can make the largest impact on the Earth’s temperatures. The ice in the Arctic acts as a global heat shield, playing a critical role in maintaining a safe and stable climate. For the past 700,000 years, Arctic sea ice has acted like the Earth’s heat shield by reflecting incoming solar radiation safely back to space, keeping all of us at an even temperature. They've spent the past decade testing and developing material approaches that could be used to make young, thin ice reflective. Their approach isn’t the magic wand that will avert a global catastrophe - it’s a safe solution that can be applied now to improve global warming, buying time for the world’s nations to complete the move to a more sustainable economy. By donating to Ice911 Research, you help expand their important Arctic fieldwork and outreach capabilities that in return will help you and our Earth live happier, longer, and safer.
