- A23a, the world's largest iceberg, is on the move for the first time in 35 years, drifting beyond Antarctica.
The discovery was made by scientists who analyzed recent satellite images and are now closely watching its trajectory.
This massive chunk of ice weighs one trillion tons and is three times the size of New York City.
Eric Sorensen explains why it's drifting, where it's heading, and the potential problems it could cause.

What a chilling story
Brain freeze.
That’s a lot of fresh water going to waste.
We can tow it to you. Or at least what will left of it)
Billionaires don’t seem to be worried about rising sea levels. They always have a few mansions on the Coast.
They also have super yachts parked nearby
@@jumbome7420 I’m almost 66 and the Seas haven’t risen yet.
sooner or later they'll go bankrupt from a lack of oil
This iceberg is sea ice so it wouldn't raise sea levels at all anyway
New "iceberg tax" is coming
It's not co2, it's not you...its the sun
At one time you went to school for more than a decade, gained another decade of experience in order to be considered an expert in your field. Now all your need is to watch a half dozen youtube videos before you know it all.
Sorry, a mountain of scientific research studies prove that our emissions caused almost all recent global warming.
Oh no something normal is happening!?!
😱
Unfortunately, humans are currently warming the planet ~18 times faster than it usually warms when coming out of an ice age, and as a result of this rapid man-made global warming, Greenland and Antarctica are melting 5-7 times faster than they were in the 1900s. Global temps should have been stable over the last 60 years. So, there's nothing natural about the transformation we have set in motion.
How much of my money is it going to require to fix? Perhaps i can pay more money for a car to help out?
I've been going to the pier since a kid, 30+ years ago noticed the tide height. At high tide the water goes to the exact same level today. Why? Any experts care to explain?
Easily. You give what's called anecdotal evidence, which is not data. In other words, cool story, bro. But not science.
You like anecdotal evidence? OK.
I'm from Alaska and I've watched Portage Glacier receed for over FORTY years. It used to be massive and now it's just a blue lake.
Sea levels are different around the world and the further north you go, the more you can observe it, so I say that my anecdote trumps yours by far. Good luck living in your tiny miniscule bubble.
1 - ocean levels don't rise the same everywhere (it's not like 1 tub of water). 2- The average over that time period is a couple inches, but some areas will also be lower
@@nuxkamina😂😂
Sure..what do you want to know?
@@Honey-Sanchez I asked for an expert. Clearly none have shown up. Guess I'll continue to wait.
It's barely the Canadian. You gotta think of all the other countries and they're literally doing nothing about it
Saudi Arabia is already making plans to grab that berg and haul it home so they can create a lake in the desert for irrigation and grow more food for themselves. If that plan doesn’t work out the Israelis plan to relocate the Palestinians there so they have their own homeland. Carnival cruise lines is also trying to claim it to use as a cruise ship.
And the Lgbtq community are protesting that it’s pro-nouns are being ignored.
I’ve heard the Saudis are planning to grow lettuce on it.
Where is it now?
Cool, chilling, I’m frozen with fear, that’s a cold story: happy feet.
Those Damm private jets and super yachts!
How are we not freaking out more about this.
If you hadn’t noticed we have no control over the universe only the illusion. if you want to see what control produces, go to China and tell Xi communism is oppressive.
Because I'm unemployed and got bills to pay else I'll be out on the street. To most people just trying to survive on this planet, a block of ice floating off somewhere is not even going to register on their freaking out meter.
@@Xero_Wolf And there ARE people who have jobs and who have power who aren't freaking out either. I wouldn't expect a man on the verge of homelessness to be able to do much about it so that's fine if you aren't freaking out, but it'll affect you eventually.
Make Antarctica green again
Cool.
Nature just doing what nature is meant to do.

Tropitica will be a destination of dreams 🎉
no worry... more ice ages on the way..
Damn. This would have never happened if it wasn't for Climate Change. We must have a ban on fossil fuels immediately for us 'peasants'. Save the emissions for our leaders who must tirelessly face the fear of this catastrophe head-on by flying private jets to the climate change world summit events and buying ocean front properties in order to help save us all.
Stay home, stay safe and stay obedient.
1. Earth is a sphere. Not a pizza.
2. It's getting warmer. That's not up for debate.
3. It's exacerbated by humans, not the lizard people. Stay paranoid!
LOL, "climate change" has been happening for *at least* several millennia, humans haven't created it. Are humans making it worse? Sure but people aren't the reason icebergs are breaking away. If you were to magically eliminate all fossil fuels, climate change would still happen.
Also naturally global warming
@@OAlemyou seem to be the one paranoid! Lol
😂yep pretty much the plan is for them to continue living the way they want and us to give up everything.
is that all you got?
alright, no excuses about not having fresh water!
1:51 😂😅
Yes the news everyday should remind everyone that this is happening and we need to do something,but...
Time to take advantage start breaking it down and using some of it as drinkable water i hear glacier water is extremely fresh
No. It's been inundated with pollutants since the industrial revolution. Climate change isn't something new.
Thanks China 🇨🇳 for
- building more and more *coal-fired power plants,* and
- burning more and more *fossil fuel.*
Enough with the propaganda
Is a titan or kaiju
Reminds me of the Titanic. Shall it sink the cruise ship ameri.😂
Ya right, “weather balloons”
Pretending to have never heard of the Ice Age is getting more and more difficult. Any tips on how to act like I've never heard of the Milankovich Cycles?
Scientists are coming to the conclusion that we are in the anthropocene and it started in the 1950s. Which happens to be when everyone started driving cars.
Washington Post 1922
The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consulate, at Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic zone.
Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the report continued, while at many points well-known glaciers have entirely disappeared.
Historical records...so inconvenient 😂
@@kirkmiller9852Only 1 thing to do Raise taxes on the peasants they are revolting anyway. If they can't afford to eat the weather will be better and we all eat cake.
This make me so so sad .. 🥲
we all need to start helping our lovely planet
Did he mean South America?
Can someone step up already to stop the Climate Change effects???
Is the sea level really rising? We whom live near the coast notice no such thing.
Wow, are we about to have another flood?
Oh oh! Better blame it on global warming lol
Canada should. Pay. More. Carbon. Taxes. And stop ice burger from. Escaping. Lol
TIP????? 😮😮😮😮😢😢😢😢😮😮😮😢😢😢😢
We have warmed the climate of anartica “. Come in man. You’re probably driving a battery operated car and live in a wooden house
father he runs
In other news that'll be sure to melt those icy bergs, according to TSA, the latest American Thanksgiving Sunday broke the US record for most travelers in a day, totaling 2,907,378 people. If that stat is any indicator, we humans are putting the pedal to the metal in order to melt those pesky polar ice caps!
The earth is not a Globe
No? What is it then?
Soon...
This World will burn...
So soon now...
Mother Earth will soon be totally free of Chaos evil greed and any other negative energies... And only those who are worthy shall be left behind to enjoy eternal life with her and her children (Nature)

Australia Antarctic rights its going in our pool its 37cel this week in vic
Australia claims ownership of more than 42 per cent of the Antarctic continent,
but this claim is recognised by just four sovereign states.

Thank you for covering this, we should all pay attention!
So, if water expands about ten percent when frozen and ninety percent of the berg is already submerged, displacing sea water, how will it catastrophically raise sea levels? New math perhaps? NukNuk
Yes, that's correct. Once the glacier calves and slips into the ocean it's already raised the sea level and won't raise it more by melting (Archimedes principle). However, they meant glaciers melting, not the iceberg. So there was no mistake by the scientists, just the narrator.
never the term "catastrophically" have been used to describe the raise of sea levels in this segment.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
How big is it? It's not as big as Justin Trudeau's hubris.
No need to worry, it will do what it wants. leave it alone. enough about global warming.
Tow it
Wheres elon/iron man
Need to tow it to Africa!
Thinking you can intentionally reverse this process is laughable. It may happen on its own, which will take thousands of years, but we shall see.
If Yellowstone blows up, it can happen tomorrow, no thousand year wait needed.
That's very sad
Fear peddling news
Climate change is always been. Look at the ancient tree growth rings. There have been long periods of drought and rain since the beginning. Get onto God's climate change program
2 Chronicles 7:13-14
[13] If I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or if I command the locust to devour the land, or if I send pestilence among My people, [14] and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Stay blessed

Bless Israel and be blessed. Curse Israel and be cursed

Global warming he says as he stands in the snow!!😅
Ok, first don’t downplay this. This is going to stop the Guelph Stream minimum. Advice to anyone reading this, Get Away From Shore Lines.
Lol calm down
Climate change needs to be taken way more seriously
No it doesn’t
go talk to china and the usa canada is doing enough
The End is Near Jesus Christ is coming soon
