Rationale: loss of glacial ice (Russia) and a longer Antarctic melt season affect global sea level, ocean circulation and/or greenhouse‑gas feedbacks and albedo, so they have global consequences. An earlier spring in a single state (New Hampshire) is mainly a local/regional phenological change and does not by itself produce significant global effects.
