Polar regions are deemed the “heart of the ocean” as cold seawater drives oceanic currents that circulate the planet.

Polar vortexes also determine daily weather in midlatitude regions such as Korea and Japan .

Polar regions' intense power over the planet’s climate means they're also the most sensitive areas to climate change.

Earth ’s surface temperature has risen by 1.09 degrees Celsius compared to the preindustrial years between 1850 and 1900 .

Lee compared those who treat climate change as a myth to people who rely on folk remedies instead of scientific diagnosis and treatment.

Lee said he hopes Earth will remain the same over the next two to three decades .
