A startling new series by New York Times reveals how much trouble we really are in.
The devastating effects of global warming that is caused by animal agriculture and other factors in Antarctica. As reported by Veg News, “Investigative journalist Justin Gillis and his team traveled to Antarctica. In the hope to witness the effects of climate change in the region as part of a three-part series entitled. “Antarctica Dispatch.”
“Glaciers In Certain Areas Have Been Undercut By Warmer Ocean Waters”
Justin Gillis and his team traveled to the continent to join a group of Columbia University scientists. They have been researching the area for several years, to document the devastation in the area. In a three-part series entitled ‘Antarctica Dispatch’. The startling findings are that long stretches are collapsing into the ocean. Which will raise sea levels to uninhabitable levels in a few short years.
Gillis reports. “And the flow of ice is getting faster and faster.”
While we have heard reports from Professor Stephen Hawking’s confirming that he suspects “the human species will have to popular a new planet within 100 years if it is to survive“. This latest findings in Antarctica prove we need to start taking climate change more seriously.
As reported in Time, Hawking will lay out his reasoning for why and how people must start inhabiting another planet in a BBC program airing this summer called Stephen Hawking: Expedition New Earth. He has theorized in the past that the chance of a disaster on Earth adds up over time so that it’s a “near certainty” in the next 1,000 or 10,000 years, but the human race will survive if it expands into outer space.
“Remote as Antarctica may seem,” Gillis says. “Every person in the world who gets into a car eats a steak, or boards an airplane is contributing to the emissions that put the frozen continent at risk.”
