    made by scientists over the last thirty-five years all agree upon the notion of shrinking, and or retreating of the ice sheets. The melting of ice sheets has powerful implications for the millions of people who depend on glacial melt for drinking water and the millions of people who will be displaced by the sea level rise occurring as a direct result of the melting. The observations of ice melting also show that the rate at which the ice is melting is accelerating. Mountain glaciers around the world

Nonetheless, it is obvious that drainage water still has a great impact to organisms. It is necessary to think of methods to stop this pollution as it could lead to an extinction of organisms. 7.
