  1. tl;dr:

    >For example, the coast of the island Kolguyev, located in the southeastern Barents Sea, is receding at a rate of 2 meters per year. This rate seems immense, however is small in comparison to the 15-20 meters of coast lost annually in certain areas in Eastern Siberia.

    that’s 1km in 50 years…
