Greenland lost a record amount of ice during an extra warm 2019, with the melt massive enough to cover California in more than four feet (1.25 meters) of water, a new study said.

After two years when summer ice melt had been minimal, last summer shattered all records with 586 billion tons (532 billion metric tons) of ice melting, according to satellite measurements reported in a study Thursday. That’s more than 140 trillion gallons (532 trillion liters) of water.

That’s far more than the yearly average loss of 259 billion tons (235 billion metric tons) since 2003 and easily surpasses the old record of 511 billion tons (464 billion metric tons) in 2012, said a study in Communications Earth & Environment. The study showed that in the 20th century, there were many years when Greenland gained ice.
Nothing to see here.

California governor says fires already way worse than a year ago
California Gov. Gavin Newsom says*wildfire count*in the state so far this year is far beyond the number last year, evidence of the effects of climate change.
Newsom tweeted that there have been 7,606 fires so far this year, compared to 4,927 last year. And when it comes to acreage, fires have blackened 7,606 acres so far in 2020, up from 118,000 acres in 2019.

If only we had more people competing for resources...

Well, that's grim news that indicates the current admin's level of concern about global warming.

And long term, this is how things are shaping up. From start to finish, the article is as depressing as the title suggests:-

The Pandemic didn't solve climate change. This weeks disasters are proof:- https://edition.cnn.com/2020/09/18/w...ntl/index.html
