Dry ice doesn't melt. It sublimates at -78 0C, or -109 0F. Sublimation is a direct transition from a solid to a gas, skipping the liquid phase.

Dry ice does not melt. Dry ice sublimates (turns from solid to gas). This happens when it is above -109.6°F. Which is going to be almost all the time on earth.
