The not-so imaginary iceberg
Posted on • via
Two years ago, a shelf of ice half the size of Rhode Island calved from Antarctica, where the effects of climate change are being witnessed in some of the most profound and acute ways. Now, that iceberg is set to crash into the island of South Georgia, off the coast of the southern tip of South America. While it has shrunk in size over the years, the iceberg is still roughly the same size as the island it’s headed for.
