Prehistoric Greenland Ice Melt Led to 20-Foot Sea Rise

The Greenland ice sheet collapsed 400,000 years ago causing worldwide sea levels to rise between 13 and 20 feet.

It’s happened before. And before that.
It will happen again. And after that.

Humans weren’t here last time it did.. maybe we won’t be the next time, either.

But if we are… we better work on finding some new land to live on for future generations of our families, who now inhabit the coastline of everywhere USA.

Greenland Glaciers Melting Faster Than Thought, Raising Sea Level Rise Fears

Greenland Glaciers Melting Faster Than Thought, Raising Sea Level Rise Fears

An amazing summer melt.. should we be worried? Satellites recorded an unprecedented rate of ice sheet melt in Greenland this month. Over the course of four days in July virtually the entire surface melted—an area larger than at any time in more than 30 years of satellite observations.

Should we be worried?

Yes.
