On the lake below thy gentle eyes;

They sink in the dark and silent lake. — William C. Bryant

As the ice melts and the tundra is exposed, two things are likely to happen to accelerate the process of the graying of the ice cap. Residue from the industrial work destined to take place will land on the snow and ice, further reducing the amount of heat-reflecting territory.

Some climate models say the Arctic will be ice-free during the summer by the end of the century; a few predict this much sooner. — Tim Marshall
The melting of the ice cap already allows cargo ships to make the journey through the Northwest Passage in the Canadian archipelago for several summer weeks a year, thus cutting a week from the transit time from Europe to China. The first cargo ship not to be escorted by an icebreaker went through in 2014 between Canada and China — a 40% shorter route and using deeper waters than if it had gone through the Panama Canal. This allowed the ship to carry more cargo, save tens of thousands of dollars in fuel costs, and reduced the ship’s greenhouse gas emissions by 1,300 metric tons. By 2040, the route is expected to be open for up to two months each year. — Tim Marshall
