Scientist has found a new study whichs says that there is less ice today in the Fram Strait (between Svalbard Island and Greenland) than at any other time since the 13th century. There are no climate records dating all the way back to the 13th century we all know. But research says nature has its own record of climate change if you know where to look for it. Researchers looked back at ship logs to find out the early climate records. From their information they have come up with how much ice there used to be. During the middle of the 17th century was when a huge decline started happening where there was a lot less ice.
I personally think that this is not something scientists and researchers should worry about. Everyone knows that all around the world there has been a decline in how much ice there still is. (Ex: The Polar Ice Caps are melting). It is not something anyone should worry about because nature will do what it wants. Although there has been a major decline in the Fram Strait, it happened in a long amount of time. Over the next couple centurys there could easily become an incline in ice and the Fram Strait could go back to normal again.
