    “We learned last year that many of the effects of climate change are irreversible. Sea levels have been rising at a greater rate year after year, and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change estimates they could rise by another meter or more by the end of this century.
    As National Geographic showed us in 2013, sea levels would rise by 216 feet if all the land ice on the planet were to melt. This would dramatically reshape the continents and drown many of the world's major cities…”

  2. #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IceMelting: "If you could shape an ice cube out of all the ice losses from Greenland and Antarctica over the past three decades, it would stand 20km high.

    An international group of scientists who work with satellite data say the acceleration in the melting of Earth's ice sheets is now unmistakable.

    They calculate the planet's frozen poles lost 7,560 billion tonnes in mass between 1992 and 2022.

    Seven of the worst melting years have occurred in the past decade.

    Mass loss from Greenland and Antarctica is now responsible for a quarter of all sea-level rise.

    This contribution is five times what it was 30 years ago."

  3. What a difference a couple of warm days makes. The last couple of days, the temps have been 60 to 70 degrees. We still have some snow and ice left, but a lot of it has melted. Spring is on the way!
