Greenland Undergoes Many Changes Amid Acceleration Of Climate Change

KANGERLUSSUAQ, GREENLAND - SEPTEMBER 08: An edge of the retreating Greenland Ice Sheet is viewed at 'Point 660', located 660 meters above sea level, on September 8, 2021 near Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. 2021 will mark one of the biggest ice melt years for Greenland in recorded history. Researchers from Denmark estimated that in July of this year enough ice melted on the Greenland Ice Sheet to cover the entire state of Florida with two inches of water. According to NASA, Greenland has melted 5 trillion tons of ice over approximately the past 15 years, enough to increase global sea level by nearly an inch. The observations come on the heels of the recent United Nations report on global warming which stated that accelerating climate change is driving an increase in extreme weather events.
