An iceberg almost as big as Atlanta and roughly the same size as Malta broke off the Pine Island glacier in Antarctica. The glacier has lost dramatic amounts of ice over the last 25 years as the region warms due to the climate crisis. https://t.co/IyCPiIn1mB pic.twitter.com/1QSsQO55BT— CNN (@CNN) February 13, 2020

First response Replying to @JoeBiden:
REALLY old tape.
yes the the ROSS Ice sheet broke up after a large storm in the Pacific.
It has since reformed and in fact trapped a cruise ship of "climate change warriors."— J Cripin (@HillTownTrader1) February 13, 2020
Hm...let’s do a bit of mathematics for Joey:
Malta is 95 square miles. Antarctica is 5,500,000 square miles. So 0.0000173 of Antarctica is now floating around in the ocean down there. Bit whoop!
