Pronunciation: [klˈa͡ɪmət t͡ʃˈe͡ɪnd͡ʒ ɪnðɪ ˈɑːktɪk] (IPA) 
Climate change in the Arctic is a pressing issue that is affecting the ecosystem, economy and native peoples of the region. Synonyms for this phenomenon include Arctic warming, polar climate shift, and arctic meltdown. The Arctic is experiencing unprecedented warming, with the annual average temperature rising two to three times faster than the global average. This increase in temperature is causing the rapid disappearance of Arctic sea ice, which has significant ecological and economic implications. Additionally, melting permafrost is releasing methane, a potent greenhouse gas, further contributing to global warming. The consequences of climate change in the Arctic extend beyond the region and represent a global challenge that requires international cooperation and action.
