Climate change urgency highlighted via Greenland ice sheet melting

A letter from a Maine resident highlights the urgent threat of climate change, citing observations from Greenland where the ice sheet—which contains enough water to raise sea levels by 7 meters—is at risk of melting by 2100. The author notes that rising temperatures are displacing populations and destroying habitats for species such as polar bears and seals.

The text calls for international cooperation, referencing the Paris Agreement signed by nearly 200 countries. It notes that the United States withdrew from the agreement in 2026 and urges citizens to contact politicians to advocate for rejoining the pact to help protect the planet.
