Devastating melt of Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets found

New research has revealed that the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets are melting at an alarming rate. Furthermore, scientists are describing the rate of melting as 'devastating' due to its severity. Accordingly, the study, published in the journal Nature, found that the ice sheets have lost a combined 6.4 trillion tons of ice since 1992, contributing to a global sea level rise of more than half an inch. The researchers used satellite data to measure the ice loss and discovered. "Nevertheless, it has been accelerating rapidly in recent years." The Greenland ice sheet has been melting at an average rate of about 280 billion tons per year. The Antarctic ice sheet has lost an average of 145 billion tons annually. Professor Andrew Shepherd is the lead author of the study. They stated th...

Gaza trauma continues to be ignored by the world

Gaza besieged citizens have been subjected to yet another devastating, deadly Israeli attack, but the world ignores the trauma it continues to endure. A chilling operation called Truthful Dawn was carried out this week by the Israeli regime against the Gaza Strip, which is besieged.  At least 44 Palestinians, including 15 children, were killed and hundreds were injured during the three-day bombardment. The coastal strip has suffered 15 years of crippling siege, but if that were not enough, it has been subjected to horrific "operations" year after year in which thousands of people have been killed, hundreds of thousands have been injured, and essential infrastructure has been totally destroyed for 15 years.
