An iceberg four miles long has broken off from a glacier in eastern Greenland.
New York University professor David Holland, an expert in atmospheric and ocean science, said it is “the largest event we’ve seen in over a decade in Greenland”. Resident with houses near the shore are prepared to evacuate if necessary, some huge climate change is occurring, that calls for necessary measures.
One of the witness said “It sounded like rockets going off,” he said, describing it as “a very complex, chaotic, noisy event”.
A June 22 video of the incident was taken by his wife, Denise Holland of New York University’s environmental fluid dynamics laboratory
