"But now the situation has changed and adult bowhead whales, which can grow up to 18 metres long and weigh 100 tons, have returned to the bay. This is probably because global warming has opened up the Northwest Passage, making it ice free at certain times of the year for the first time in 125,000 years.

Sending a Green Star is a simple way to say "Thank you"
You cannot currently send a star to Dee because you have done so within the last week.

Thanks Dee. It would be amazing to hear their songs. But that aside, this sounds like good news and bad news to me. While warming temperatures have contributed to the survival of the bowhead whales in the waters around Greenland, it is still disturbing that the phenomena of warming waters is not likely just a transient occurance. :-(
