Antarctica is melting – is there a chance that it can refreeze?

Antarctica is melting around the edges where it touches the relatively warm ocean. Climate change is making the ocean warmer, and it is very unlikely that this will change anytime soon. We expect that the ice covering Antarctica will continue to melt, and will probably melt even faster in the future. If we act swiftly enough there is a chance that the melt will slow down or even reverse, but that chance is dwindling every day.
