A recent wake held for a dead glacier in Greenland ignored the fact that it was born 700 years ago at the start of the Little Ice Age. Glaciers forming in an ice age, and melting when that ice age comes to an end, are hardly news. Which glacier was that? Apologies, it was Iceland not Greenland: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-49345912 And how do you know it was only formed 700 years ago? Not from that article - the BBC coyly forgot to mention it. Here is another glacier about to collapse and it has been around for more than 700 years: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-49820542 Fascinating. In your BBC article, the glacier in question is moving too fast. In my BBC article, the glacier in question is moving too slowly. Perhaps you, or the BBC, or someone, can say what the correct speed of glacier movement is? Kindly note that when ice ages end, glaciers melt and sea levels rise. It's not 'news'. -- Spike |
