If you take a gram of water

And apply one calorie of heat to it

You will raise its temperature by one degree Celsius

But you need to apply 81 calories

To ice, simply to change it to water at 0 degrees Celsius

The latent heat of change of state of ice to water

Uses 81 times more available heat

Than rising the temperature of water one degree

Once all the ice is melted

The once covered ice area will heat up 81 times faster

There will be no stopping it

A new steady state of high heat tolerant might mean

Hopefully, rapidly evolve

But human civilisation as we know it will no longer exist

'Cause Gaia likes it cold

'Cause Gaia likes it cold

'Cause Gaia likes it cold

The loss of ice cover will catipult our climate

Into an uncharted, apocalyptic era of rapid heating

There will be no stopping it
