Warnings From the Ice - NOVA
Eleven thousand years ago, the world s temperatures suddenly rose drastically, creating a climate shift within a human lifetime that is nearly unimaginable. What triggered this frightening shift? And, more importantly- is it about to happen again? Take a trip to the bitter-cold bottom of the world, a beautiful, unforgiving place where experts are racing against time to probe the Antarctic ice for its secrets. Miles deep, the frigid expanse holds 70 percent of the world s fresh water in a deep freeze cold enough to shatter steel. But recently things have been heating up: In 1995, an iceberg the size of Rhode Island broke off from the Larsen ice shelf along the Antarctic coast, hinting at a potential meltdown.
