Efforts are being made by scientific experts to prevent the melting of the snowy Arctic due to global warming. These plans involve various projects to cool the region by reflecting sunlight. One such experiment includes freezing water to form a protective layer over the Arctic snow, while another involves scattering reflective glass beads on top of snow to reflect the Sun’s rays. These techniques are known as geoengineering, which involves manipulating the environment to counteract the effects of climate change.
A Dutch startup named Arctic Reflections is working on its own experiment, which involves pumping seawater on strategic locations across the Arctic Sea to thicken the ice in winter and restore it as a heat shield. The CEO of Arctic Reflections, Fonger Ypma, drew inspiration from Dutch ice masters who create ice rinks by flooding fields. The goal is to create a protective layer of ice that can help maintain the Arctic until other technologies can reduce global carbon emissions.
While these experiments show promise, they are not a permanent solution to the issue of global warming. It is important for the world to continue working towards more comprehensive environmental changes to address climate change.
