Glaciers Weep as the Arctic Warms:
In a bit of environmental pareidolia, a glacier on a Norwegian ice cap was photographed because it appears to be crying.
It may have good reason:
"The Arctic climate has been warmer over the past decade than during any
10-year period in 2,000 years, according to a study by an international
research team that adds powerful new evidence that human-generated
greenhouse gases have speeded the pace of the planet's recent warming. The report from an international team of climate scientists concludes
that climate change in the Arctic has accelerated since the Industrial
Revolution, abruptly reversing a long-term worldwide cooling trend.
