Q&A

How would the world be different if ice was denser than water?

+0
−0

Ice is strange, in that the solid form is less dense than the liquid water it freezes from. This causes Ice to float on top of the water.

How would our planet earth be different if something changed this property of Ice so that it became significantly denser than water. Dense enough to sink to the bottom.

Would the poles freeze up completely?

How would the climate and life be affected?
