Yeah.

We've documented over 4,000 fatal drownings through ice.

So basically what that means is that half of those drownings can be explained by winter air temperatures, such that in warmer winters, more people drown.

Depending upon the extent of greenhouse gas warming, you might expect 10 to 28 days less ice cover by the end of the century.

And at current greenhouse gas emission scenarios, we forecast about 5,700 lakes may permanently become ice-free within this century.

Well, for starters, Sapna says, when you have less lake ice cover, you have less...

Ice fishing opportunities, recreation opportunities, it matters for winter ice roads.

So many northern communities, especially remote communities and many indigenous communities, actually require the use of winter ice roads to access food, fuel, medical supplies, and even social connections.

In the winter?
