The planet’s widest glacier could contribute twice as much to global sea level rise as currently projected, according to new research by glaciologists.
Oh, I guess I’m the only one who has seen all of the documentaries over 30+ years filmed from a helicopter with the pilot pointing out how alarmingly fast glaciers are receding as the camera person zooms in on bare rocks.
Maybe I should be a famous fucking scientist, because the loudest ones are obviously being paid to ease panic.
This was actually an interesting article about a model of glacier melt, taking into account how seawater was interacting with the rim of the glaciers to cause them to melt even faster than previously realized (which was already fast). Reframing this as ‘famous scientists’ (what famous scientist was involved with this??) downplaying global warming instead is a wild misrepresentation of everything they did.
They’ll only care when their bunkers and golf resorts and yachts have all ceased to be respites for their debauchery and they can no longer move freely in ways that let them ignore it.

Brian Cox (the ex boy band member/ astrophysicist) off the top of my head.
Atty represents nature and he’s been talking about it for waaaay longer than 30 years.
Even the newest episode of Simon Reeve’s newest show (which was like two weeks ago) has him commenting on the very same thing I am referencing.
I’m not downplaying anything, I’m using humour to express concern.
Concern for a doomed planet, because the loudest and richest people can’t be fucked to care for anything but themselves.

What’s your name? I’ll make a wikipedianpahe on you. That should make you famous.
Too late, true fame has already found me… twice separately.
Are you Elon Musk?
They’re far too well spoken to be that knobhead.
I put the Grimes in Musk like a cybertruck getting cucked by a fucking nut busted knuckle duster!
When I dream, my dreams turn into his nightmares.
I am the ghost of a ghost that makes him remember why he hates himself so much.
So … yes?
