Adam SébireUN World Day for Glaciers is Saturday, 21 March 2026
#Sermersuaq, the #GreenlandIceSheet, is rapidly melting due to manmade global heating, and likely past its tipping point (with total collapse thought to be triggered around 1.7-2.3ºC of warming).
If glaciers retreat from these fjords to terminate on dry land no longer will they calve such astonishing #icebergs – but our oceans will continue to rise, swamping our lands.
