This giant iceberg video will make people both excited and afraid

Excited is because this is one of the most spectacular scenes. Fear is because it warns the facts about the fate of the Earth.

Want to find something interesting to see? Try this video! It makes you feel very relaxed, but at the same time makes many people . chill at the same time.

It is known that the video was recorded from the last days of June, about a giant iceberg breaking from the permanent glacier Helheim Glacier in Greenland.

In fact, icebergs are not something new. It is just a natural phenomenon, about how glaciers create floating icebergs at sea. It is estimated that Greenland alone can generate 15,000 - 30,000 icebergs each year.

The 6000m wide ice in Greenland makes viewers both excited and fearful.

In addition, broken ice is always worth watching. When the bandage split, it created a very large fracture sound, and the sound waves from here could even spread throughout the ocean.

Only thing, all but what we said above is not enough to describe the event this time. Typically, an iceberg over 5m high, over 100m wide is listed as "iceberg" (iceberg). The problem is that the iceberg in the video is too big, when its size is . 6.4 km.

Unfortunately, this is a fast rewind video, so we must not hear the horrifying sound that the ice created.

And why does it make many people fear?

The reason is because the Helheim Glacier is one of Greenland's three largest glaciers, next to Jakobshavn / Ilulissat and Kangerdlussuaq. The rate of ice splitting in all three rivers is increasing rapidly in recent years, due to the impact of climate change.

The ice is 6.4 km in size.

But more importantly, icebergs that appear on the sea are not only a threat to ships, but also a factor that makes sea levels rise faster. Imagine, you drop the stone in a glass of water, the water rises by about the same volume as that stone. The ocean too, when icebergs appeared.

In previous reports, global sea levels are rising by about 3mm each year. However, this level is not stable, because every 12 months the level increases again by 0.08mm more. According to experts, icebergs in Greenland are part of the cause.

"The rising global sea level is an indisputable phenomenon" - ocean meteorologist David Holland from New York University. "Researching the causes of rising water levels will help us solve many things."

"Knowing how icebergs are formed also helps us calculate future water levels," said Denise Holland, another expert from New York University.

According to some calculations in 2017, if the entire glacial region of West Antarctica melts, the sea level will rise by about 3.2m.

The B-15 iceberg once startled the world because it was too big.

And don't misunderstand, this is not the largest iceberg in history. In March 2000, the B-15 ice sheet was separated from Antarctica, and it had an area of ​​about . 11,000 km ² - larger than some countries in the world.
