Friday Night Open Thread: Man, This Decade Sucks! Can We Fast-Forward?

2020 was a Willy Wonka year. Pure Imagination. 

2021 has been a Gahan Wilson year. 

And now, by all indications, we’re going to enter a full-on Monty Python year, with a Benny Hill administration.  What’s that going to be like?

I just want to get back to Gunsmoke years.  Or even The Big Valley.  I think I could have liked Audra.

Do you have something you’d like to share? A link? A joke? Some words of wisdom? A topic to discuss? It’s our nightly Open Thread, and you have the floor.

Straight Line of the Day: The Thwaites Glacier Could…

It never ends!

 

Antarctic Ice Shelf Could Crack, Raise Seas by Feet Within Decade, Scientists Warn
NBC News / Comcast | December 15, 2021 | Tim Fitzsimons

An Antarctic ice shelf could crack and disintegrate within the next decade, allowing a Florida-sized glacier to slide into the ocean and raising sea levels by feet, scientists warned Wednesday.

A dramatic chain reaction in the ice could occur by 2031, starting with the Thwaites Glacier, said Erin Pettit, a professor at Oregon State University who studies glacier and ice sheet dynamics.

New research Pettit presented to a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in New Orleans suggests the final collapse of the ice shelf may occur “within as little as 5 years” and mark the beginning of the end of the Thwaites Glacier.

Thwaites is the “widest glacier in the world” and has “doubled its outflow speed within the last 30 years,” said Ted Scambos, a senior research scientist at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences and a contributor to the research.

All the water in the Thwaites Glacier would raise sea levels by 2 feet — but if its collapse triggers nearby glaciers to fall, the global sea level could rise by up to 10 feet, Scambos said.

A series of scientific studies of Thwaites in recent years has shown the enormous glacier is melting more quickly and in ways scientists never expected.
