The ice in Antarctica is melting, and the the eastside is now pushing around the westside. Antarctica has been losing trillions of tons of ice per year. The ice mass has been moving at a very fast rate. It's twelve millimeters per year.This is happening because of global warming.
Global warming is a common issue these days because the climate is changing and the Earth's polar ice caps are melting. Now it's become even more serious since East Antarctica can push around the west. New York City is predicted to be underground since the ice melting is causing more water to be in our oceans. There's not enough space for oceans, so it will flood over land.
Now that the ice has started melting and moving, there's not a lot of things we can do to stop it. But some things to slow down the process might be saving energy and not using unnecessary electricity. If we shut down the light even for a few moments when we're not in the room, it could still make a small but important impact.
