Scientists Sound Alarm on Arctic Melting, "Abrupt" Climate Change at AGU Meeting | SolveClimate.com: "Scientists reporting their findings at this week's annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco have an important message for the world: Climate change is happening faster and more extreme than predicted.
NASA, for one, has released new satellite data showing that over two trillion tons of land ice in Greenland, Antarctica and Alaska have melted away dramatically since 2003. More than half of that ice loss has come from Greenland. In total, the melt has led to a global sea level rise of about one-fifth of an inch over the past five years."
