       "[...] at the base of Antarctica’s ice, an area the size of Germany and France combined is feeding meltwater into a super-pressurized, 290-mile-long river running to the sea" This is fine.https://www.wired.com/story/scientists-are-uncovering-ominous-waters-under-antarctic-ice/#Science #ThisIsFine

       @Hash the article doesn't say. The issue is, that this fresh water can drag warm sea water up to the ice, contributing towards a melt that may destabilise large ice sheets, which are currently on land.

       @skepteisMay result in more global warming if ice blocks melt from poles.
