The BBC said it was dramatic and disturbing.

“An iceberg twice the size of Manhattan has broken away from the Petermann Glacier in northern Greenland.”

“It’s dramatic. It’s disturbing,” University of Delaware’s Andreas Muenchow told the Associated Press.

“We have data for 150 years and we see changes that we have not seen before,” Mr Muenchow added.”

HEAT BRINGS DEATH AND MUCH SUFFERING

Life Rendered Almost Unbearable in the Tenement Districts.

Great Distress Among the Horses— Hundreds Revel in the Streams from Fire Hoses.

Despite a brisk southerly breeze that tried hard to temper the heat of yesterday, there was considerable suffering throughout the city. According to Weather Forecaster Emery, the maximum temperature was 94 degrees, which was reached at 5:30 o’clock In the evening, when the silvery column gave up the struggle for the day. The highest point reached on ‘the previous day was 91½ degrees.

What made the temperature especially trying was the high percentage of humidity. As early as 8 o’clock in the morning the humidity was .78 per cent. The suffering, especially in the poorer sections of the town, was intense. The park at the Battery was crowded from an early hour with the poor from the lower section of the city, who there sought relief in the cool breeze that swept from seaward up the Narrows. Far up in the upper floors of the down-town sky-scrapers the heat was not so severe, but in the street, between the tall buildings that reflected the heat and cut off every chance of a breeze, men and beasts sweltered.”

Academics recommend that $2.5 billion be confiscated from honest working taxpayers, and be given to them for yet another boondoggle/scam.

“But to better understand how such strategies might change the ocean—or whether they would even work—funders will need to pour as much as $2.5 billion into research over the next decade, a U.S. panel of leading ocean scientists recommended today.”
