#COP28 is a critical moment for addressing the escalating #climate and biodiversity emergencies.
 
From the private sector to civil society, working together we can solve both crises and ensure a just transition. iucn.org/cop28

"The outcome of #COP28 must be that all the oil, gas & coal nations of the world see that now we are truly at the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel era for the world economy. And that we are now starting to bend the curve properly," says @jrockstrom. nbcnews.com/science/environm…

How can a glacier go from this, to this, in only 7 years?
Isn’t climate change a process that takes millennia to happen?
Not if WE PUSH IT OVER THE THRESHOLD.
In climate research this threshold is called tipping point and once it’s reached, there's probably no going back.

Cadman glacier in West Antarctica reached a tipping point in 2018 after the arrival of unusually warm ocean water, which caused the ice shelf to unground. Without the ice shelf to protect it, the glacier started melting at a sped-up rate.

The European Central Bank, continuing to hold bonds with fossil fuel companies is just as crazy as a dentist owning a candy store 🙃

It is time for EU money to fund green industry, not climate breakdown. 🔥 #ECB #ClimateCrisis

Does Earth’s biggest iceberg affect sea level?

Icebergs are glacial ice that flow to the sea, break off, and float away. The mass of the iceberg displaces water and raises sea level. Iceberg A23A broke off Antarctica in 1986, so that’s when it added to sea level rise.

Earth's largest iceberg is on the move 👀 🧊

This iceberg hasn’t moved much since it broke off an ice shelf in 1986. But lately it’s been traveling more quickly, migrating northward toward warmer waters.

Follow that berg! go.nasa.gov/3uHe4Xi - NASA Earth
