About the exponentially increasing ice melt in Greenland
Read the article "Greenland losing 30m tonnes of ice an hour, study reveals" in The Guardian, January 17, 2024. 30 million tonnes an hour. Think about it. It's a melt rate of 30 billion kilogrammes an hour.
Many news outlets wrote about it. In this Youtube interview from 7.3.2024, "Greenland: Ice Loss Accelerating", where Dale Walkonen interviews emeritus professor of ocean physics Peter Wadhams and climate scientist Paul Beckwith, Wadhams says that the last time he was in Greenland, the rate of ice melt in Greenland was more like 30 million tonnes per day.
When was Peter Wadhams in Greenland last time? It's easy to figure out. It was in August 2021, see this article and this article.
So Peter Wadhams was present in Greenland as a scientific authority at the motorsport event "2021 Arctic X-Prix" which was held in Kangerlussuaq, Greenland, on August 28 and 29, 2021.
Somebody on Reddit/Collapse (I think it was in the comments section to this post) criticized the video above by Dale Walkonen for not mentioning the time when the ice melt in Greenland was 30 million tonnes per day. Now they know, if they read this blogpost. And they could have easily figured it out by searching for it on the search engines.
August 2021, it's about three and a half year ago. In this short time, the ice melt has accelerated eight times. It's incredible.
