Warnings From the Ice
URL: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/warnings/

Description:
This site is a companion to a 1998 Public Broadcasting (PBS) NOVA program about the possibility of global warming due to the gradual disappearance "over the last half-century [of] the coastal ice on the Antarctic Peninsula." The site features an ice-core timeline, an overview of the Antarctic environment and wildlife, and images of what the coasts might look like if the ice sheets melted. Also includes links to resources and a teacher's guide.
