Striking animation showing the magnitude of glacier collapse since ca 1900 in the Alps! 🧊🔥
All the retreat you see here is caused by human activity, and it will only stop when the last cubic metre of ice has melted! 📈💧

Astrum Earth shows what Earth will likely look like when all the ice on the planet melts (sooner than you think).

Welcome back for the second half of this trip along the world's longest mountain-chain!
This sea-mount is halfway down the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, but under *kilometres* (gulp) of water. Incredibly difficult to explore directly.
But there's a fantastically clever way scientists can "see" it...

The Atlantis Massif is around 16km across, and climbs 4.2km, to within 700 metres of the sea surface.
I know these are just numbers, so - it's about the size of Mount Rainier (Washington State).
To help you imagine this, here's a pic of Mount Rainier.
Now imagine that underwater.

It turns out that the great majority of MAGA Influencers are registered in India, Russia, Malaysia, Serbia, Bangladesh, Nigeria, et. al. This, revealed after X enabled a feature exposing locations of registered accounts. X quickly removed it. The MAGA-movement is much, much smaller than it appears.

While the entire weather enterprise - it seems - is focused on extreme US cold - which may take weeks to materialize, the country has been roasting. Over the past 7 days 100s of heat records have been broken, and the nation as a whole has been ~4F above normal. +20F near the Ark-La-Tx!!
