Jennifer, I have never been to Sweden or any part of Scandinavia. I live in the United States. However, I am not going to jump into conclusion here to say that your leading questions seems to have more to do with it than a mere research. And I am sorry if you think I misunderstand you. On the climate warming, I must tell you that if you are obviously over ten years old, you should have noticed the change in climate condition all around the world for the past decade. This is global warming. I have not been to Sweden as I told you, but I have no doubt that they have more cars, machines, industries today than ten yeyars or so ago; and affected by world population like any where else. If you have not realized that this is in the whole world, then you may need to begin your research from a lower level. The whole world is warmer and that includes the North pole.
