Greenland ice sheet caught in feedback loop, melting fast

A new study reveals that Greenland's ice sheet is nearing a critical tipping point due to rising temperatures from the climate crisis. The melting ice sheet could significantly raise global sea levels. The study highlights a vicious cycle where melting ice lowers the ice sheet's height, exposing it to warmer air and causing further melting. Coauthor Nicholas Bowers suggests that the ice sheet's destabilization is already underway, with increased melting expected in the future. While complete melting would take a millennium, ice equivalent to 1-2 meters of sea level rise is likely to melt over centuries.
