The culprit behind this rapid melting is global warming.
And the culprit behind global warming? The heat trapping greenhouse gases we release each time we continue powering our homes and cars with dirty fossil fuels.
While we act locally, the effects are global. When you choose clean, renewable energy for your electricity needs, you won’t just lighten the load on your power bill; you’ll lighten the load on our planet.
