Hansen and The Met Office are all over this story.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Glaciers have varying mass balances even in a global sense. If one particular glacier has a higher accumulation rate from precipitation than ablation then the glacier will grow/advance. Inversely, the glacier would retreat if the ablation r…ate from melting and calving etc exceeded the accumulation rate. Not all glaciers are retreating, a vast majority are but not all. A common misconception are the response times of glaciers. The Antarctic ice sheet for example has a response time to climate change of 1000+ years so what we are seeing today is essentially a reflection of what the climate was like that long ago.
That looks like Baffin Island

Oddly enough, not very many people live on the Greenland ice sheet.
lol
Rapidly melting? Oh yeah, at this rate…..er it’s gonna take a few hundred millennia and then some, panic over.
F&£*wits.
Only five months to go before the ice-free Arctic reaches a tipping point!
