Default Interesting: Greenland glacier sets new speed record

Gives new meaning to the term 'glacial'.

The Jakobshavn glacier in Greenland is retreating at a speed of 2 meters
_per hour_ according to a study:

speed-record/

FWIW: I'm not persuaded either way about global warming; keeping an open
mind.
