They discovered that 100 billion tons of ice melt annually, and the Peterman Glacier's speed has doubled in five years. This rapid melting is attributed to global warming, which causes meltwater to lubricate the ice, accelerating its movement. Similar changes are observed in Alaska and Antarctica, posing a threat to sea levels and habitats. If the melting continues, the consequences could be catastrophic.
