The Times followed climate scientists on their quest to collect data from Greenland to help explain exactly what’s happening to the world’s second-largest ice sheet.Scissors-32x32.png

 

Scissors-32x32.pngThe science blogger Steven Goddard (a pseudonym) criticized the Times article’s portrayal of Greenland as rapidly melting.

 

“The volume of the ice sheet is 3,000,000 cubic kilometers. Using the most aggressive claims, it would take 15,000 years for the ice sheet to melt,” Goddard wrote. “That accounts for a sea level rise of about one hundredth of an inch per year.”Scissors-32x32.png
