Record number of icebergs off Canadian coast
German photographer Rolf Hicker, who captured the image off the coast of Newfoundland in north east Canada, said: "I remember for years in Newfoundland where we hardly saw any icebergs.

"But in 2007, there was a record number of icebergs with four or five times more icebergs than they had ever seen in one season.

"For me this is a clear sign that something very bad is happening in the Arctic."

3. It's amazing that republicans don't believe in global warming when the evidence
is melting all around them.
