Netanyahu replied with a reference to mr. Trumps book, the art of the deal, and the two men had a warm relationship and talked about their long friendship, and this is really in stark contrast to the strained relations that netanyahu had with president obama.

These local islands where weve been censusing for 43 years now have declined by 85 . Reporter 85 . The numbers on this island at their peak were 9,000. This year it was 1,200. Reporter at first it was thought that as the weather warmed here, the penguins might have moved further south, looking for the sea ice they need to hunt from, but they havent. We do work other places looking for them. Were not finding them. Reporter not just the sea ice is retreating. Theres a spectacular glacier next to the base that gets less spectacular every year. They keep a photo showing how it retreated from 1975 to 2013. Then a funny thing happened, quickly. Normally in places like this you talk about things moving at glacial speed, taking their time. Not here. Here they know exactly when that glacier split off from this place march 14, 2014. This became dietrich island. And they have photos, as well, of the moment the island emerged when the glacier connecting it to the mainland collapsed, along with the population of penguins.
