It may be thousands of miles away but the break up of the Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica could be a disaster for the UK.

What a time to be alive all exciting stuff isn't it folks

Scientists. Could happen in the next 2 year but possibly a decade
Sky news. Decades or centuries.

That's the spot on honesty we have come to expect.

[ulisescortez]

The past generations “I’ll be dead when sh!t hits the fan anyway”

[GGMC]

Now they're literally putting doomsday in their headlines lol

[sprunnel]

[BIG-MIKE-OBAMA]

Im hoping to have water front property in the next 200 years...This is terrific news

The chilly variant, booster will save us.

Covid, nuclear war, and now ice cubes the size of a continent. What next, aliens from outta space?.

It seems that these people have forgotten about Archimedes, that very smart Greek chap, who figured out displacement.

[VivalaryMan]

Make this glacier the prime minister now! It clearly has the required experience!

[everready]

Decades if not we're ruining our economic futures for every new variant.

Glaciers flow like rivers, obviously much more slowly and they reach a point where parts of it are no longer supported by the land and chunks break off into the sea. How does the rate of ice reaching the sea compare to the amount of snowfall on the land?

My god... cracks in ice 🧊 never knew that could happen 😳 🤔

5 years to a couple of decades 😂😂😂

[lliambunter]

The impact would be felt around the world. including Britain who would have thought of that

[Sambo]

But after the 6th booster it will all work itself out and we will be safe

[The_story_teller]

Fear and negativity sells. Well done sky

[amateurs]

Programming us all into your Chinese style social credit system

[darrylkemp]

How many of these climate predictions need to be wrong before people realise it's a lie ?

[mindblownoveruaps]

in 10 years, the ice caps will freeze again by then and hold in place.
