Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution part of scientific team reporting collapse
Woods Hole, MA – Satellite data has confirmed that an ice shelf about the size of Manhattan has completely collapsed in East Antarctica within days of record high temperatures. The Conger ice shelf, which had an approximate surface area of 1,200 square km, collapsed around March 15, scientists confirmed today.
East Antarctica saw unusually high temperatures last week, with Concordia station hitting a record temperature of -11.8C on March 18, more than 40C warmer than seasonal norms. The record temperatures were the result of an atmospheric river that trapped heat over the continent. Atmospheric rivers are a natural phenomenon and are not unprecedented events, but they are becoming more common at the poles. Prior to that, it had been undergoing some moderate amount of retreat since at least January 2020, but the total collapse was not predicted.

Not sure of the scientific status of the "Daily Galaxy", but I sure do of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. Bottom Line...CO2 is still a Greenhouse Gas whose atmospheric content is now 430 ppm, or 130ppm over the previous 800,000 yr. high..in just over 150 yrs of FF burning.

I think we need like 700 feet of sea rise.
