    Yes, the ice is melting, but obviously not from the top down. From the bottom up.

    This is what is causing the ice loss loss from one small section of Antarctica. It is destabilising the Pine Island Glacier, And if that collapses and takes the Thwaites glacier with it, sea levels would rise 1.2m overnight, plus a tsunami.

    Now, that’s scary. And has nothing to do with CO2. I wonder if Greta’s handler has told her about that?

    And that “scientist” who claims they’d thought of everything never considered this.
