We're All Going To Die!!!!!!!
What total BS!! In the last 100 years the sea level has risen less than a foot (8-9 inches).
I would run around with my hair on fire, but, you know, globull warming and all that...
Gruesome Gretta will be thrilled.
Just get your initial vaxxes and 3 boosters and it will okee dokee.

Hey I won’t have to drive as far to the beach. All those mullion dollar beach front homes will make great fish habitats. Means more fish to eat.
We know that there are volcanoes below these ice sheets...and you can find plenty of evidence. Yet some scientists insist that the gases in the atmosphere are melting the sheets. The gases are coming from the ocean....not man made. Get it!!
Right, which is why Obama and Kerry have bought mansions right on the water.
I'm worried about the Marxists in Washington, not the glaciers and the beach.
if this glacier isn’t being held up by land, then “breaking loose” won’t raise the sea level single millimeter ... has anyone here ever seen a full glass with ice cubes sticking up overflowing when the cubes melted? no? that’s because the submerged ice is less dense than the water, which is why ice floats, and the part ABOVE the water will exactly finish filling the underwater space the ice occupies under the water when the entire ice cube melts ...
See, see!! It’s the size of Florida!! That means DeathSantis is behind this.
“What total BS!! In the last 100 years the sea level has risen less than a foot (8-9 inches).”
Absolutely... Know what makes these break off? Too much added mass from accumulation.
Just like Avalanches...
California should move there.
I have gone to the same beach for over 50 years the walk from the car across the sand has not changed lmao
Failed attempts have been tried in the past, but I see a vet possible fresh water business opportunity here...
Hey they already said a few years ago we only had 12 years left, it is too late.
We now uave 9+ years left no matter what.... :)
“Popular Science?”
Or an “ELF” rag?
The Earth’s climate has been changing for 2 billion years, and there is absolutely nothing humans can do about it.
Popular Science now needs to donate to FReeRepublic for that environment class.
5.56mm
wow
i havent read political science for a while
now i know why
50 billion tons of ice per year! That works out to .005 inches of sea level rise. If that’s 4% of the total sea level rise, then the total sea level rise per year is... 0.12 inches. Or 12 inches per century.
Now, if you think the fact that this melting glacier is only 4% of ocean-water rising, you might think that there is a total of 25 times more melting glacier out there, right? Wrong. Most of global sea-level rise — if there is any global warming — is adiabatic. The ocean water expands with heat, just like the fluid in a thermometer. If the Earth really has warmed up a whole half of a degree, then that accounts for nearly all of the rest of sea level rise.
“Then sea level rise must be WORSE than a foot a century!” you wrongly surmise. No, all the sea ice and ice shelves in the world could melt and the ocean level would rise ZERO inches. When ice floating on the ocean melts, its volume decreases by exactly the same proportion of the ice that sticks up above the water. The fact that a given weight of ice takes up more space (or, in other words, is less dense) is why any ice floats above the water at all.
THIS glacier is not typical for Antarctica. Most ice in Antarctica would need to warm up by 100 degrees or more to melt.
Lying Democrat scum.
