 Scientists Have Detected an Enormous Cavity Growing Beneath AntarcticaEnvironmental | 207884 hits | Jan 31 12:08 pm | Posted by: DrCaleb  Antarctica is not in a good place. In the space of only decades, the continent has lost trillions of tonnes of ice at alarming rates we can't keep up with, even in places we once thought were safe.Commentsview comments in forum Page 1 2 You need to be a member of CKA and be logged into the site, to comment on news. |

Somebody hasn't been flossing.
Well then that's quite an abscess. I never thought I'd want to call in a company of periodontists but maybe today's the day!
It's the alien's home base. There expanding it so they can invade.
... I mean it was in alien vs predator.
�The geothermal heat contributed significantly to melting of the underside of the glacier, and it might be a key factor in allowing the ice sheet to slide, affecting the ice sheet's stability and its contribution to future sea level rise,� the researchers said, in a statement. �The cause of the variable distribution of heat beneath the glacier is thought to be the movement of magma and associated volcanic activity arising from the rifting of the Earth's crust beneath the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.�

"Hey guys, the global warming climate change thing isn't working. Got any other ideas?"
"Yeah! Let's tell everyone there is a MASSIVE hole under Antarctica, in which lies a MASSIVE volcano and magma and fire and bad shit!"
"Carl, that's AWESOME! Call the media!"

Again with the fear mongering.

What exactly is gained from this for them?
That is disturbing. What could possibly have caused it? Surely not all the underwater volcanoes honeycombed through that area.
That's important to know, since Thwaites currently accounts for about 4 percent of global sea level rise.
If it were to disappear entirely, the ice held in the glacier could lift the ocean by an estimated 65 centimetres (about 2 ft). But that's not even the worst-case scenario.
C'mon, buddy cough it up. What are you actually saying? Are you saying Thwaites is going to melt soon? If so, just say it. Give us an estimate on when. Or is the timetable of your scary Thwaites melt a secret? Will I need a secret decoding ring you'll supply at the bottom of my cereal box to figure it out, maybe?
If not all we have is what you gave us: "Thwaites currently accounts for about 4 percent of global sea level rise."
Last I heard global sea rise was estimated at about 7 inches per century. So about 4% percent of that, then...
Not scary at all. Sorry to disappoint you.
And one does have to worry what you're trying to scare us about, seeing as you didn't mention the volcanoes.
Again with the fear mongering.

And once again, you have nothing.

If you've got something better, don't hold it back on my account!
