Ice melts to waves if the planet gets too hot. Earth is not cooling down enough to stop the votices because of the dense carbon dioxide blanket. Plants can remove the carbon dioxide from the air but not at a great greater than humans are producing it. What happens to the ocean temperature when the ice is melted. The North Polar Cap is the 'ice cup' to cooling the planet. Stopping Carbon Dioxide pollution is not an option anymore and it is crazy to think humans can 'beat' the alternative. We are the stewards of Earth. We live because conditions are right.
