Antarctica’s Thwaites “Doomsday” Glacier | VOA Connect 

“The sea levels don’t just rise around Antarctica - they rise everywhere.” He mentions this in case somebody watching this video is completely unfamiliar with how water works. 😂

Makes you realize how stupid war is... sigh.

I love how we believe that economy growth will come from the collapse of the human enterprise at this collosal scale.

Waterworld was actually a documentary.

Beautiful to look at - ANTARCTICA

We need an appreciation for science & less ignorant doubters thereof.

It’s remarkable that so many scramble to find viable solutions to these crises-when the problem is endemic to the human condition. Greed. Selfishness. More greed. No other species comes close to our insolence. We are the problem. The planet will recover nicely when we are gone-which is inevitable. Humans have no business existing. We only destroy.

He is a layman when he speaks about politics, society, solutions...

Just heard this is Melting Faster Than Thought

Thanks for posting this. I am concerned about the West Antarctic ice sheet as well and between these two glaciers, we could see well over 5 m of ocean level rising in just the next 25 years that not even going to the end of the century.

Very interesting really like this documentary.

We need to help our earth for the future generations

Awesome video, extremely informative for the novice interested in glaciers and global warming.

The transition to renewable energy is a good start, however, governments also need to assist in changing forestry and agricultural practices to pull carbon out of the atmosphere and keep it in the soil through chemical-free no till practices. Tilling soils allows carbon to readily reenter the atmosphere. There are also efforts around the world to capture and slow down the runoff of rain. These efforts help retain moisture in the surrounding soils and help green these arid soils. Most of these efforts by farmers and greening arid lands are being done by individual groups with little to no help from governments. It’s time governments and concerned people help finance these efforts. They are as important as the transition away from fossil fuels.

Thank you.

Just read an article that this is melting faster than expected!

so much thanks about north pole

To raise the water level, doesn’t the ice have to melt on land first? Is that happening or is that just a technicality?

Ice, snow, glaciers, mountains........dude, you and I both know that is not true. There is so much more there. But if for some reason you're not aware I will prove it to you utilizing Google Earth pro and using the time slider tool. I'll show you images that are out of this world. Literally. 3:02

Also all of the Glaciers are made out of fresh water and when they dumped that fresh water into the ocean they throw off the salinity of the ocean which throws off the currents in the ocean which causes major major climate problems

Save Our Planet Now!

We got 28 years left

The title of this video is basically incomprehensible.

It will all melt...anartica, the artic circle are no longer the south pole... inner earth...shambala

It's great to end this with the idea that "people can make money!" off the transition to clean renewable energy. The one motivation that has led to humanity's impending destruction can SAVE humanity!? 😂 Well... probably not, but hey at least it can motivate some humans to action and make some richer and more comfortable as the world dies.

Looks like we need to figure out a way to use sea water as drinking water and other uses rapidly even if we stop using cars and planes and everything else nothing is going to stop this planets natural cycle so times are changing

That glacier is THICC in the back. End of humanity humor (yeah it's not the greatest, just like humans!)

He said it at the end…money

I can't wait to get a Yacht🎉🎉🎉🎉😂 Pirate D!!!😂😂😂

Why are there bases in antarctica with extremely huge oil tanks?

Keep trying!!! Saving the humans on this planet will be difficult.

I am sorry, but honestly it's pronounced "Ant-arc-tic-a". Cool vid though.

70% of energy in the USA is still fossil fuels, Puerto Rico is 93% fossil fuels.. we need to vote against government, big oil and industry that puts profits and policies before people.

I've been watching Antarctica on Google Earth for a few years now. The ice is melting faster because it is melting away from both sides. The ice used to be white but now it's covered by soot and pollution, turning it black, attracting more heat. The sea level is already swallowing islands. People who contribute the least to global warming are suffering the most. There are 57 underground bases in Antarctica and several mobile research labs. They are not supposed to harm Antarctica but they are harming everything. There are refineries and war games with nuclear submarines under the ice. The geology teams are extracting resources as fast as they can. Russia was the last country to join last year. Now they are now landing 747's on the island. I remember back in the 70's and 80's, the research ships had to break through the ice to get to the Poles and the snow and ice had white ice year-round. Now the ice is melting so fast we can see the ground. It looks like there's ice from far away, but when you zoom in, you see there's no ice in places that should be covered in ice. Iceland is losing 13% or 6.8 million kilometers of ice per decade and it is excellerating every year. I don't know what we can do to slow it down, because we have ignored the dangers of fossil fuels in exchange for profits for so long, it's probably too late already. There's no way to slow it down now.

It will never happen unfortunately. Greed will dominate this planet

Good we need more fresh water

Societies working together was shot twice in the back, rushed to Roosevelt hospital,,,, dead on arrival,,,, 1980 was there year hate returned to the throne

Why don't we start building on water instead of MARS

Solar panels last 20 to 25 years, wind, the blades last the same and the both r buried in the ground. There was 15,000 solar panels in Colorado, a hale storm destroyed all but three, hello??? Then u need battery packs. My home is 2650 Square feet under air conditioning, with solar batteries and switches to keep working cost $100,000.00.

It's going to get very, very, scary .....when the KING arrives ..I'm not talking of Charles..I'm talking about CHRIST JESUS .......AMEN

Put ice in a glass of water and wait until it melts, it won't raise the water level

It's mostly rich people living in the coastal areas so who cares if sea level rises. The beach will just move back a bit, it will still be there

Good

You know there's a lot of Icebreaker ships that break ice all around at the poles can that be contributing factor to all the ice melting since they're exposing ocean that would have been covered with ice

"Doomsday" glacier. Gosh and they call you folks alarmists.

This must be an old video. They left out the higher impact of Animal Agriculture, burning forests to feed animals, loss of O2 producing and CO2 absorption habitat, transportation and CO2 production of those vehicles that move those plant products worldwide. I live in an area where the vast majority of land is used to raise food for animals for slaughter, not humanly edible vegetables. One pound of corn is a families meal, to a cow, it's a snack.

Oh great we need more water, less drought.

MANBEARPIG IS REAL. I'M SUPER CEREAL.

Wow people are talking and acting climate change it here !! Think about it like this every day is worth than the last, more Earth quakes and droughts and tornado wildfires flooding volcano tornado like f-15 f20 think about it !? Half of the country going to be under tornado and flooding and the weather on the side will be drought and wildfire !? We to start thinking about growing are own food real Talk !? and it doesn't have to be this way ????

Jesus is coming! Your pastor already told you! Lol...

Never mind the fact there are over 100 hot spots and acrive volcano locations on Thwates. It's a joke! It is melting due to active volcanic activity.

Nothing doomsday about it everybody trying to buy into the green new deal to make Kashish

I like the word Doomsday and will use it more now I believe we are doomed Because of what I see and what I have read God said he would make the land desolation I believe it is happening right now it’s just around the corner from being finished

How will it rise if the ice is already causing water displacement? Also, my friend who works at Nasa said glaciers are growing under the water at the same time they melt on top. Research and coordination of efforts is more welcome than a video about old data with nothing new being said.

If the world ends it will be because Jesus came back.
