West Antarctic Ice Sheet Collapsed

This Antarctic ice Sheet Collapse is an Oh-Shit time for our world.

Smith and Kohler glaciers have retreated 35 kilometers since 1992—and the researchers say that there is "no [major] obstacle that would prevent the glaciers from further retreat." In the NASA press release, the researchers are still more vocal, with one of them noting that these glaciers "have passed the point of no return."
