Something that I took away from this article is wow us humans have really messed up our earth. It is so sad that even if we stopped climate change the ice sheets would still melt because they have shrunk so much. This article connects to what we learned in module three is just the fact that it has to do with our oceans and levels would rise because of the ice sheets. A comment would be is I like Michalea King's positivity saying at the end of the article.

This article is talking about how because of global warming the glaciers in greenland have been shrinking. The glaciers have been in a cycle of melting then more snow falling for ever but in 2000 something changed and they are now melting faster than snow falls. It is now too late for the snow to catch up to the melting because the glaciers have moved so far out that the warm sea water melt the ice. This relates to our glass because it deals with earth. I think it is crazy to think that at some point greenland might be completely melted and that even if we were to some how stop global warming in its tracks that it is already too late.

The glaciers in Greenland have been shrinking tremendously that even if global warming would stop the glaciers would still be shrinking. They collect data of how much it snows in greenland and sees how much the ice breaks off and melts. This relates to the lesson we are learning in class because just like they collect data on glaciers, we also collect data for future earthquakes and make predictions for what earthquakes could possible come later on. Just like we learn more about the glaciers and can make predictions for the future. Leave a Reply. |
