Thanks to the Arctic melt, there is a 40% increase in sea level.
Greenland’s glaciers melting makes it easier to harvest the fossil fuels underneath, further harming the environment, especially in the long-term.
Over 97% of the ice sheet in Greenland melted over a period of 3 days in August.
Greenland’s icecap sits at 3,000 kilometers (1,864 miles) above sea level. It is melting at a rapid pace, and many people describe it as being “beyond the point of return”.
1.8 million square kilometers of Greenland ice keeps the Earth cool, and it’s melting rapidly right before our eyes. Below is a video describing what would happen if all of the glaciers in the world were to melt.
