Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica is among the largest glaciers on Earth and one of the single most important factors for future global sea level rise. Thwaites is surrounded by other massive ice sheets that cover west Antarctica. Since Thwaites sits in a giant, low elevation basin, if it melts, the rest of the ice will flow into the basin and melt, too. Add all that ice up and you get more than three meters of sea level rise.

What the Pentagon doesn’t want you to know about China: Deliberate lies about China to drum up justification for more U.S. war spending needs to be urgently addressed. To encourage Congress to authorize the largest defense budget ever, the Pentagon just released its annual report on China, which dangerously misrepresents the country’s defense strategy. Such deliberate lies about China to drum up justification for more US war spending need to be urgently addressed. Escalating tension with China was a mistake, and building a colossal military budget is doubling down on this mistake.

The findings were published in the journal Nature Metabolism.
