We must build awareness.
The public is unaware of the science that predicts a sudden, immediate and irreversible sea level rise. Our goal is to make sure this science is understood by policymakers and the public.
“Thwaites is really holding on today by its fingernails, and we should expect to see big changes over small timescales in the future – even from one year to the next – once the glacier retreats beyond a shallow ridge in its bed”
— Robert Larter, Marine Geophysicist from the British Antarctic Survey.
