Yes, and in the bits that don't have ice there are plants starting to grow or taking hold. This is happening mostly in the Antarctica peninsula, which is close to the tip or the very end of South America.
And did you hear the reason he gave for these plants growing?
Yes, the rise in temperature so the continent is getting hotter, ice is melting, and the plants are growing. But where did the plants come from?
Well, the seeds are being brought into Antarctica, but not by the wind. They're brought in by people.
So you mean people bring seeds with them and plant them in Antarctica?
No, they don't plant them. They carry them on their clothes without realising it. Let's listen to the report which explains how scientists found out this is happening. How does the reporter describe searching scientists and tourists?
