Global warming and its effects
The polar regions of the globe are made up of the Arctic (North) and the Antarctic (South).
Global warming is caused by many factors. If the Antarctic ice sheet melted completely, sea levels would rise by around 65 metres, which would mean London would be underwater!
Use the text and picture tools to present some facts you know about the polar ice caps. There are useful facts in the Guidance to help you.
