Subscribe to Big Think Edge for insights into critical global issues. The Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the world, causing Greenland's ice to melt. This exposes dark ocean, which absorbs more solar energy, creating a feedback loop that accelerates further ice melt.

Journalist and historian Jon Gertner, a feature writer for the New York Times Magazine, explores this phenomenon in his latest book, "The Ice at the End of the World: An Epic Journey into Greenland's Buried Past and Our Perilous Future." Find his book here.
