Glaciers- Global Warming Briefing<br>
<br>
In a stunning discovery aboard the Greenpeace ship <i><span style='font-style:
italic'>Arctic Sunrise</span></i> this past summer, two Maine scientists found
new evidence that Greenland’s glaciers are melting at an unprecedented
rate. Global warming is no longer on the horizon, it has arrived at our
doorstep, and since we live in a coastal community, that’s not just a
figure of speech. The scientists discovered that a <st1:place w:st="on">Greenland</st1:place>
glacier has accelerated in the past nine years exceeding all expectations and
has now become one of the fastest moving glaciers in the world. <br>
<br>
Come learn more about these findings and what you can do to help curb global
warming. <br>
