Question

11. Why are places with the Ice Cap Climate considered the harshest places on Earth?

Answer 1

Answer:

Because of the winds and cold temperatures.

Answer 2

The two major areas with ice cap climates are Antarctica and Greenland. Some of the most northern islands of Canada and Russia, along with some regions and islands of Norway's Svalbard Archipelago also have ice cap climates.

An ice cap is a thick layer of ice and snow that covers large areas of land. You’ll usually find ice caps in the North and South Poles of the Earth.

Typically, ice cap climates generate very harsh living conditions, such as large areas of snow and ice (of course it’s a ice cap climate after all). Many people find it hard to live in such conditions and it’s generally hard to survive in such conditions.
