World’s biggest iceberg en route for collision with remote British island • FRANCE 24 English

A trillion-tonne iceberg 33 times the size of Paris is making its relentless way towards the remote overseas British territory of South Georgia. The world’s largest iceberg, which split off from an Antarctic ice shelf 38 years ago before becoming stuck in an oceanic vortex, is now bearing down on the sparsely inhabited island – and threatening to disrupt the lives of millions of penguins and seals that call the island home.

  1. The iceberg may threaten wildlife, but it already raised the sea level when it broke off 38 years ago. Archimedes' principle. The amount of ocean displaced by the weight of the berg doesn't change whether it's frozen solid or liquid.
    The global mean sea level has risen 101 millimeters (3.98 inches) since 1992 and continues to rise at 3.9 mm (0.15 inches) per year.
    When another one of these breaks off it will be even messier.

  2. Fake News just to delay America annexation colonization of British Island after Greenland annexation soon 😂😂😂😂

  3. If Shackleton had waited 109 years he could have taken an iceberg directly to South Georgia Island. It might have been easier than taking smaller icebergs to elephant Island and then sailing across the southern ocean to South Georgia. 😂 RIP Shackleton.

  4. no it sea level will not rise , just put and ice into cup of water and melt it yourself and see if water rise, climate change mongers to fit propaganda

  5. Antarctica is full of volcanoes 🌋 at the ends of the earth, bringing our clouds which the enemy can redirect from God’s snow ❄️ treasuries.
    The ice wall which surrounds the ocean 🌊 waters is the Only way water 💧 can be contained
