Iceberg alert: Chunk of Antarctica 160X larger than Manhattan breaks away

Will take maybe 10 years to melt, but add 0.1mm to ocean levels!

thats because its floating ice, its already displaced its water content and now we all know you are smart enough to grasp that concept with your sarcastic ohnoz

but but I thought Anarctica was making ice on records pace just recently according to you deniers on here.

btw this might be the largest iceberg in the entirety of human history.

This is what happens when you pull out of the Paris Climate deal. And it hasn't been that long...no telling what we will see in say 5 years. Probably be watching the world around us burn up

Ever seen Brewster's Millions? Good 80's movie. This guy wants to take that iceberg and transport it to the desert for drinking water. Looks like he might get his dream.

160 times the area of Manhattan Island...in other words, the size of New Jersey!

This berg alone, upon melting, can raise the level of the world's seas by up to a foot! And climate deniers celebrate in blissful ignorance.

This is a big deal folks. Those that say it isnt are not aware that now I will have to move my beach chair and canopy back at orange beach another 4 inches. This is going to be bad.

So if it reattaches via overfreezing sea ice, how much will sea level drop?

Asked another way, WTF was supporting this outcropping of ice before it broke off?
Answer: The Ocean!
