14 Feb 2024 | Abstracted from Tech Times

"According to the study (published in journal Scientific Reports) estimated 11,000 square miles of Greenland's ice sheet and glaciers have melted in the 1980s...amounting to 1.6% of Greenland's total ice cover...Climate experts worry that the increased vegetation exacerbates Greenland's ice loss, creating a troubling feedback loop. Beyond its immediate environmental impact, Greenland's ice loss poses a significant threat to global sea levels."
