Topic | so much polar ice melting, it's slowing down Earth's rotation |

When the fresh water glacier melts into the sea water, it lowers the salinity and slows down the AMOC because the water is not so dense anymore. Previously, the Greenland ice cap was losing about 30 million tonnes of ice melt every day. Recently, scientists have observed the ice cap is losing an alarming average of 30 million tonnes of floating ice per hour. --- [click here] pronouns incoming SHE HAS PRONOUNS!>(She/Her)<CHECK OUT my PRONOUNS ...
