Another day, another study that forces climate scientists to re-evaluate their estimates of future damage upward. This time it's about the Greenland ice sheet.
"Our results indicate that, by neglecting calving-front retreat, current consensus estimates of ice-sheet mass balance have underestimated recent mass loss from Greenland by as much as 20%."

@CelloMomOnCars and we need to reconsider alpine skiing in general. What's the carbon footprint of these resorts, whose only purpose is recreation for the well-off? #Alps #glacialretreat #climatecrisis #watershortage

“The winds will change the ocean, the ocean will melt #Antarctica—and the water is coming to visit you.” If the #ThwaitesGlacier collapses, it could bring much of the Western Antarctic Ice Sheet with it and raise sea levels by over three meters. The potential collapse of Thwaites is among the largest environmental threats to global civilization—and we’ve barely begun to understand it. What took us so long?
