简介：

        Iceland, Finland and Chile have along with many other countries decided to issue a joint stamp where the theme is the preservation of glaciers and polar regions. There is a danger that increasing tempereature on earth due to the greenhouse effect will greatly endanger glaciers and polar regions and constricting the livelihoods of those living close to these regions. The ecosystems of the arctic countries are sensitive to climate changes. It is forecasted that the average temperature on earth will increase by 2°-5°C in the next 50-100 years. However, in this period climate warming up to 10°C in air temperature is expected in the polar regions. When the minisheet is heated up the changes in the glacier regions become visible.

        冰岛、芬兰和智利与其他许多国家一起决定发行一枚联合邮票，主题是保护冰川和极地地区。有一种危险是，由于温室效应，地球温度升高将极大地危及冰川和极地地区，并限制生活在这些地区附近的人的生计。北极国家的生态系统对气候变化很敏感。据预测，在未来50-100年中，地球平均温度将增加2°-5°C。然而，在这一时期，极地地区的气温预计将上升到10℃。当微型薄片被加热时，冰川区域的变化变得可见。
