Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Temperatures in the Arctic region have tended to increase more rapidly than the global average.  Projections of sea ice loss that are adjusted to take account of recent rapid Arctic shrinkage suggest that the Arctic will likely be free of summer sea ice sometime between 2059 and 2078. Various climate engineering schemes have been suggested to reduce the chance of significant and irreversible effects such as Arctic methane release.
Several climate engineering proposals have been made which are specific to the Arctic.  They are usually hydrological in nature, and principally centre upon measures to prevent Arctic ice loss.
In addition, other solar radiation management climate engineering techniques, such as stratospheric sulfate aerosols have been proposed.  These would cool the Arctic by adjusting the albedo of the atmosphere.
