Again, so what? Another arcane fact that flies in the face of overwhelming scientific consensus. (and evidence). So now we have an iceberg the size of Delaware freshly broken off exposing 70% of the world's fresh water to the open ocean elements. Gee, I wonder if that is any different than the past 150 years? And we know the impact a major ocean has on the environment just by living in Eugene. It just seems like common sense to me that we get serious about the world we are leaving for the next generation. I agree with the author, we humans do solve problems. But not when we stick our heads in the sand and pretend there is no problem.
