Expedition Greenland: At The Front Lines of Sea Level Rise, 29min., USA
Directed by James Hale, Luke Pavey
On Greenland’s remote shores, some of the planet’s oldest ice sheets are rapidly disappearing and quietly transforming global seas. Here, million-year-old glaciers fracture and crumble, and meltwater rivers rush to the ocean in icy waterfalls. Greenland’s ice sheet is the second largest on Earth, containing enough frozen water to raise global sea levels by about seven meters (about 23 feet). And it is melting at an accelerating pace.
