Exploring the alarming rate of ice melt in the polar regions, the book delves into the historical context of Arctic warming, tracing its origins back to the late 1910s. It examines whether we have reached a tipping point and the potential apocalyptic implications of this environmental crisis. Through a detailed analysis of the causes behind the unprecedented sea ice retreat over the last 150 years, the author presents surprising insights that challenge conventional understanding of climate change and its impacts.

The book argues that the ocean, rather than the atmosphere, plays a crucial role in determining climate change. It challenges the prevailing focus on greenhouse gases and highlights the importance of understanding oceanic influences on global climate patterns. Through this perspective, it emphasizes the need for a reevaluation of priorities in addressing climate issues, suggesting that the ocean's health is integral to the future of the planet.

The book delves into the impact of naval warfare on global climate, highlighting a significant warming event in 1918 and a subsequent cooling trend that persisted for four decades starting in 1940. It explores the intricate relationship between military actions and environmental changes, providing a unique perspective on how historical conflicts have influenced climate patterns. Through this lens, the author examines the broader implications of warfare on ecological systems and climate dynamics.
