Antarctica's 'Doomsday Glacier' is in trouble, scientists say

- A collapse of Thwaites or any of the nearby large glaciers nearby would almost certainly cause measurable sea level rise. WBZ-TV's Jacob Wycoff reports.
Sign of the times here in the south we have four seasons in the winter. We really haven't seen cold weather for 2023.
“Humans capable “ I really question such loose talk. Just look at the train derailment and how it poisoned everything around. 30, years ago they should have moved away from low levels and coast. They voluntarily want to use a canoe 🛶 post it online and say I’m not leaving my home.
So why does Obama own a home right on the beach in Hawaii if this thing is going to supposedly put it underwater??
because he's rich enough to not have to care
@@brmadden895 more he's old enough not to be worried it will be a few years yet for the effects to appear .....or maybe not
Exciting news, I want this to happen to reveal what's under Antarctica.
Agree
Mostly land, Antarctica is very large, but it’s very “land abundant” it just mostly land not very much ice and water under it.
Its permafrost releasing billions of tons of methane 😁😁
This ice is floating on water?
more dinosaur bones, it hasn't always been a frozen desert
I wonder to prevent sea level rise, if we can drain the ocean into part of the desert 🏜️?
Im sorry what. How would this be a good idea, let alone work
@@shoees_ Super easy, create a huge low spot in the desert close to the ocean, and then rip the gap between them open and let the sea fill up the big depression therefore, helping sea levels not rise👻 any other questions???
@@greggreg2263 1. Which desert? 2. Every desert has it's own ecosystem. So not only would you be disrupting that, you would also be disrupting any ppl population nearby. Hell, entire weather patterns could change drastically and effect other nearby biomes.
I mean you're literally creating a whole new ocean!
@@shoees_ The desert and the ocean, where Dubai is because Dubai is only like 3 feet above sea level. as humans we have disturbed everything and horsed around with every ecosystem but this way by bleeding off the extra water we could save cities like Miami New York, and thousands more😊😇🙌😁🙃
@@greggreg2263 So creating an inland sea? You'd need to excavate a hole 500m deep, below sea level the size of Texas. Good luck with that....
Look at pics from the 1800s of the statue of liberty and the land its on and take note where the water level is, and then look at a pic nowadays, wow its the exact same.
You can't use logic with these climate crazies.
Global sea level is approximately 8 inches higher now than it was at the end of the 19th century. You wouldn't see that by just looking at a picture. You would see it in tide gauge readings and the frequency/severity of coastal flooding, especially during storms.
"Nature's Glacier" would have been a better choice of words.
Cool name for a glacier though
FEAR!!!! FEAR the glacier!!!
Hahahaha, here we go, total bull crap. At the same time, the ice fields are GROWING at a quick pace. And ice, in water, doesn't raise sea level. Put ice in your mug, fill it to the top with water and let me know what happens when it melts.
Sea ice melting won't notably raise sea level, but ice on land (e.g. the continental ice sheets) melting will. The portion of the ice shelf that sticks out into the ocean acts as a "dam" to the landlocked ice behind it.
@brmadden895
Antarctic sea ice melts every spring in the southern hemisphere, and then it freezes up every fall.
It's the same in the northern hemisphere.
As an inhabitant of planet Earth, you are required to know this.
If someone hasn't taught you this common knowledge, then let me begin your education.
Antarctica's ice sheet is not shrinking or melting.
Greenland's ice sheet is not shrinking or melting.
I monitor this constantly.
My education of geology, atmospheric physics, and glaciology began in 2007 when Obama began campaigning for president.
Al Gore was fear mongering everyone that the Arctic was going to be ice free by now.
One promise after another was broken.
I tried to defend these men and their outrageous claims.
I went ftom rabid left-wing liberal to educated conservative who knew everything about Antarctica, the Arctic, Greenland, Earth's geologic past, and Earth's constantly changing climate.
I especially concentrated on the effects of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and water vapor, Earth's most prominent greenhouse gas.
EDUCATION. This is the key.
Do not listen to people who fearmonger.
We went on an Alaska cruise last year and they pointed out how the glaciers are growing. Notice you never hear that on the news
Are these the same scientists that claimed the ocean would be 6 feet higher in 2012?
Are they?
Step 1: Spread fear
Fear is a feeling. Peer reviewed literature is based on evidence and proof. Feelings are not welcomed in a scientific process. The results are as they are. But somebody can always decide not to look up.
You've got to be pretty simple to believe what she said.
It's funny people are saying glaciers don't exist because they're not in the bible.
They have been saying that this glacier would disappear dozens of times yet it is still around.
The ice floating on the sea is melting. That ice is grounded and holding back the land ice. When the grounded sea ice is gone there will be nothing holding back the land ice and it will flow into the sea and melt causing sea level rise
This doesn't make any sense. Have you read the studies that sea level has actually not risen at all?
@Princess Alexandra Humm. Is that the punchline to a joke? If so the joke is on you.
@@justmenotyou3151 unfortunately it's going to be on all of us. How the fuck do people still think this is a subject to "debate"....
It is summer in the Southern hemisphere right now.
Antarctica's sea ice breaks up like this every single year.
Within 4 months, the entire continent of Antarctica will be surrounded by almost 1000 miles of sea ice.
FACTS:
1. The eastern Antarctic ice sheet is 16,400 feet thick at its thickest point.
2. It is -42°Fahrenheit at Vostok station right now.
3. There has never been a temperature any higher than 10゚F ever recorded on the mainland Antarctic continent.
4. The media will often quote that Elephant Island is part of Antarctica and claim that the temperature can be as high as 70゚F. It is actually at the end of the Antarctic penninsula.
What they don't tell you is that the elephant island is about 2500 miles from the South Pole.
5. The media will quote quite often that the Western Antarctic ice sheet is shrinking.
What they don't tell you is that the ice on the Western sheet is blowing over to the Eastern sheet and making it grow.
6. Just a little light reading can explain quite a bit about Antarctica and clear up a lot of misinformation reported by the media.
BOOM! thank you!
And by "misinformation", he means lying
Oh so you’re one of the scientists whose been to Antarctica?
@Truth is Harsh What does Florida science class say about snow in LA?
your ignorance doesn't change the reality. you do realize ice can melt below the freezing point, too right? also air temperatures don't control ocean temperatures that closely genius
More people should like this video, so the algorithm spreads it more.
Well I guess it's a good thing we're all gonna die in a nuclear war anyways
Maybe we can pump liquid-oxygen or liquid-nitrogen under strategic parts of the glacier. That way we could build ice-walls under the glacier.
Oxygen has the advantage of being rendered liquid at lower temperatures than nitrogen, thus saving energy.
Nitrogen has the advantage of being less of a fire hazard.
No need to do anything drastic, since the amount of ice on the continent is growing, not decreasing. Only in the areas that are over volcanic activity has it decreased.
yea it would be a shame to see all that ice go up in flames
"You know humans are capable of this". Yes but the ozone hole was a much simpler problem to solve than climate change. Climate change is due to ecological overshoot, a vastly over populated Earth, and a deeply ingrained delusional mindset of the world's politicians and "leaders" That is, unbridled capitalism. perpetual growth economics, and consumerism. Solving climate change would require a drastic reduction in human population and a conscious decision to slow and shrink the economy. It would require austerity from every single person now alive. It would require a rapid decrease in emissions, that everyone use less energy, that meat consumption be drastically reduced or eliminated, globalism be reversed, crypto currency be outlawed, and that humans rapidly begin pulling C02 out of the atmosphere. And there is now methane belching out of the permafrost...that would have to be dealt with. Due to the aerosol masking effect, reductions in emissions would paradoxically cause rises in global average temperatures, so humans would have to artificially replace aerosols in the atmosphere, which are now actually reflecting sunlight back into space. The world's politicians knew about the dangers of climate change since 1987, when Dr. Carl Sagan and James Hansen warned the US Congress, who did absolutely nothing...except to increase fossil fuel extraction and emissions. The world's "leaders" actually sent us all to our inevitable near term demise. There won't be a single human being remaining on Earth by 2030.
We're all going to choke on the air we breath by 2030 when the oceans turn green.
Yet we are cooling in the last 8yrs and hardcore cooling the last 10,000.
Libs are hysterical by nature, so open your eyes, it's the actually the reactors
@@TheApocalypse2031
Yawn.
Lol that glacier won't do shit if it melts lmaooo
Call something doomsday and you’ll get more funding.
We used to get 14 inches of snow in Cleveland, Ohio. Now we barely get 6 inches. Yet I'm stll told by people climate change isn't real.
Are you dying?
@@anthonymorris5084
Why are you trolling and gaslighting people?
@@TheApocalypse2031
There is nothing natural about Earths global temperature rising at a rate 10X faster than the gradual, slow rate of warming that ended the last ice age.
@@TheApocalypse2031
"Everything that is going on climate wise currently has happened before in the past 500,000 plus years" [citation needed].
@@TheApocalypse2031
"Nobody on the planet knows what actually went down in the last Ice Age".
The ice in Antarctica and Greenland is made up of snows that fell on the continent over millions of years.
As this ice was pressed down, it captured bubbles of air. These little gas pockets are a direct snapshot of the atmosphere.
Scientists take ice core samples from glaciers and ice sheets and read off the levels of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping components such as methane, for example.
Analysing the atoms in the water-ice molecules encasing the gases also gives us the temperatures that persisted at the time of precipitation.
The 19 Th-waytees? Or Tom Th-Waits?
At least it happens, wunderbar!
But please tell the hysteric people and fear mongers also, how rapid ice is building again in glaciers. The freeze rate is higher than the the loss of icebergs.
I'll tell ya a secret... Nuclear war will happen before that glacier melts and floods the world 15 inches LoL
Fear!
Lmao Hairspray!
Earth 616 for ya
Have you ever seen something outside of your house freeze that is full of water then when it unfreezes it just floods your yard with an extra foot or more of water.
Answers is no, Ice does NOT make more water when it unfreezes.
Most of the ice is above the water so when that stuff melts it’s gonna start to flood
The ice is holding back land ice so when it goes the land ice will move into the water and start to melt. There's your flooding.
Lol I also love how someone whose qualification is "I have watched ice melt in my yard" is so confident that they have insights that weren't considered by the world's top scientists over the last 30-40 years.
@@maxwellcooper2 sounds like a scientific education by today's standards 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@Truth is Harsh 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣😂must stop stop laughing 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣oh god😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤮🤮🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂
Oh well
Go watch Randall Carlson. This is nothing compared to what the earth has experienced. Although we are leaving a footprint, this stuff happens regardless.
1/2 meter rise is huge. Tides 18" higher than normal. Rivers backing up to meet that 18" rise.
Climate Crisis is here now.
It would be nice to think 'we' could fix this like the end of ozone, sadly lobbyism and corrupt politicians has stalled this for so long just for the sake of $$$ that you'd have to be in denial, to think we aren't looking at the worst crisis to come!
Oh no we're all gonna die
At the end of the day, we have to cut our emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere. We should also look at removing CO2 from the world's oceans. Maybe kelp farms can help.
The ocean would not rise at all, it is called displacement.
land ice will raise the sea level? sea ice won't, when this goes the land ice will enter the sea, don't be on 2023 coast in 50 years time, will be a bit wet
Stop trying to scare people you guys are terrible you do understand for decades kids and adults alike have been throwing homemade bombs at this shot ALL types ammo just to get cleaving photography! You guys we've been doing this for years! ❤️
These doomsday climate alarmists have NEVER been right.
Actually, some past climate models proved to be quite accurate.

If you deny this, it can be worse.
Stop Western parroting propaganda to continue making profit from Industrial Re-Pollution at the expense of life on the planet.
Too many smartarses deny scientific evidence & hiding their own discovery of the consequences to continue profiteering.

I don't care. No worse than what our politicans are doing.
The tide fluctuates 4' of depth on the carolina coast. The 2,000 yr old manmade oyster beds on Huggins Island, NC are still producing oysters in the same spot they did when Jesus was in Highschool.
2000 years is a lot of time, that's why rapid climate change over the span of a few decades is so significant. you deny reality though so I don't think that context will really help you
Go fill a cup, a bowl, a bathtub and a swimming pool with water and let it freeze then let it melt and tell me if any of those objects made more water; to overfill them or is it the same amount of water?
Not that I care, but that's actually not what they're saying. This particular glacier sets slightly up out of the ocean sort of on land mass, over time it's sliding, cracking and falling off of that Antarctica land mass into the water. But we're all gonna die in a nuclear war soon anyways so
Exactly. It's called displacement. I remember learning this in elementary school.
Take a glass of water filled to the very rim and drop several ice cubes in it. Does it spill over?
Glaciers are NOT floating in the ocean. Glaciers form on land, and are made up of fallen snow that gets compressed into ice over many centuries. When they melt, water goes into the ocean.
@@tillitsdone It will CONTINUE spilling as the ice fully melts !!!
CBS! ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
"Doomsday glacier". No, the climate movement aren't alarmists. Never. Sure.
Whenever people talk about the future of our planet and humankind they inevitably leave out of the picture our Creator and his purpose for the earth and its inhabitants. Very shortly his heavenly government, the Kingdom, will replace all human governments. (Daniel 2:44) This is good news for people who want to live in peace and harmony with others and all living creatures. The Kingdom will eliminate all the problems we are currently experiencing and will also undo all the harm done by selfish, greedy people. It will bring true peace and security to the earth. Psalm 37:10, 11, 29 says: “Just a little while longer and the wicked will be no more; you will look at where they were, and they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace. The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it”.
Floating ice is irrelevant. This is such a scam and a swindle!
land ice (not sea ice) entering the sea over the next 50 years will matter to 100s millions/ billions of people of people on the coasts
