All the science types say it is a photoplankton bloom, which has happened before, although not to this extent.
I guess we will have to wait and see, but it is a pretty color.

(from the article)
"But of course NASA boffins have offered more credible alternatives. The best theory climate scientists have come up with is that the freakish green-tinged ice is probably due to a massive bloom of phytoplankton. NASA observers are unclear if the mass of phytoplankton and algae is trapped in the soft slushy forming sea ice or whether it is living below existing sea ice."

Hmm.
