Since there’s no way to know if human activity caused this, there’s no point in doing anything about it except going for a ride in the F-350

  1. From | Project MIDAS: | "Although the remaining ice shelf will continue naturally to regrow, Swansea researchers have previously shown that the new configuration is potentially less stable than it was prior to the rift. There is a risk that Larsen C may eventually follow the example of its neighbour, Larsen B, which disintegrated in 2002 following a similar rift-induced calving event in 1995."

    I'm sure that all the EPA, NOAA and NASA climate scientists will continue to monitor and report on this and other global warming related events from their new government funded research positions in France.

      1. Meanwhile, a smaller crowd will be glued to 150 custom-made radio receivers set up across the country.

        What kind of glue should we use? Is this strictly voluntary, or can we glue people to radio receivers against their will?

        So many questions.

  2. Larsen C, like two smaller ice shelves that collapsed before it, was holding back relatively little land ice, and it is not expected to contribute much to the rise of the sea. But in other parts of Antarctica, similar shelves are holding back enormous amounts of ice, and scientists fear that their future collapse could dump enough ice into the ocean to raise the sea level by many feet. How fast this could happen is unclear.

    Yeah, this will end well.
