The world's ice is melting so fast that sea level rise predictions can't keep up. In the 1990s, the Earth's ice was melting at a rate of about 760 billion tons per year. That has surged 60 percent to an average of 1.2 trillion tons per year in the 2010s, a study published Monday in the journal The Cryosphere estimates.

How we work: Getting input from scientists Posted on 12 January 2021 by BaerbelW , David Kirtley, John Mason, jg Over the years, we've published many rebuttals, blog posts and graphics which came about due to direct interactions with the scientists actually carrying out the underlying research or being knowledgable about a topic in general.
