when the ice cube is taken out of the freezer the warm air or the climate change will have the effect to make it melt because when the ice cube freezes its in a very cold climate at about 32 degrees or cooler and when warm air hits what ever was cold it heats up and it melts it back to its regular form.

An ice cube melts when outside of the freezer because it is warmer than its freezing point, causing the ice to absorb heat from its surroundings and transition from a solid to a liquid state.

Ice becomes water when the temperature is over 0 degree. If you take ice outside from freezer, the temperature will be get higher than 0 degree. That's why ice melt when you take it outside.
