The ice caps most likely play an important role in the oceans. Life on Earth could be drastically affected when the ice caps melt away. Don't make it seem like there is no reason to be worried.

That said, we can't do a damn thing about it. So smoke 'em if you've got 'em.

I have heard scientists say that the Arctic ice IS melting, but the Antarctic ice has gotten thicker. Perhaps the orbit has changed slightly or the axis has adjusted somehow. I don't know HOW that would happen, but it sounds like a reasonable explanation.

You're right though, there's nothing we can do to change this, mainly because there is nothing we did to cause it.
