Ice loss due to warming leads to warming due to ice loss: a vicious circle – Science Codex

If the Arctic summer sea-ice were to melt completely, a scenario that is likely to become reality at least temporarily within this century with ongoing greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels, this could eventually add roughly 0.2°C to global warming.
