Parts of Iceland saw temperatures more than 10°C (18 °F) above average, and the country set a record for its warmest temperature in May when Egilsstadir Airport hit 26.6°C (79.9 F) on May 15.</p><p>"The findings come as global leaders put more focus on Greenland, a semi-autonomous territory of Denmark, following U.S. President Donald Trump’s comments that he would like to annex the mineral-rich island.</p><p>"Burning <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FossilFuels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FossilFuels</span></a> for electricity and transportation releases pollutants such as carbon dioxide that cause the planet to warm unnaturally fast. The Arctic is one of the fastest-warming places on Earth.</p><p>"Even in today’s climate, the occurrence of such a strong heat wave in the region is relatively rare, with a 1% chance of occurring in a year, the analysis said. But without human-caused climate change, such an event would be “basically impossible,” said Friederike Otto, associate professor of climate science at Imperial College London, one of the report’s authors.</p><p>"The extreme heat was 40 times more likely compared to the pre-industrial climate.</p><p>Global impacts from a melting Arctic</p><p>"Otto said this extreme weather event affects the world.</p><p>"As the Greenland ice sheet melts, it releases massive amounts of fresh water into the salty oceans. Scientists say this could slow down the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation [<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AMOC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AMOC</span></a>], an ocean current that circulates water from the Gulf of Mexico across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe and then the Arctic.</p><p>"Such a slowdown could disturb global climate and weather patterns.</p><p>“The nature of weather in the Northern Hemisphere is directly tied to what’s happening in the Arctic, because that ice floor basically at the bottom of the atmosphere helps determine the weather patterns that we get,” said Waleed Abdalati, who heads an environmental sciences institute at the University of Colorado Boulder. He was not involved in the WWA analysis.</p><p>"The Greenland ice sheet and other ice covering the Arctic can influence where and when wind blows, how much water content the wind has and whether precipitation falls as rain or snow.</p><p>"Most of the melting of the Greenland ice sheet happens in June, July and August. The May heat wave means there will be a longer melting season this year.</p><p>"Melting ice sheets and glaciers also contribute to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SeaLevelRise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SeaLevelRise</span></a> that is threatening to flood coastlines globally and inundate low-lying island nations in the Pacific Ocean.</p><p>"<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Indigenous" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Indigenous</span></a> communities in Greenland are increasingly encountering dangerous travel conditions as sea ice that was once constantly frozen begins to thaw.

Jon Sullivan<p>I was just reading the new science study documenting how we're very close now to (perhaps even past) the ocean temperatures needed to start the irreversible collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet.</p><p>"Notably, West Antarctic Ice Sheet collapse contributes over 4 m sea-level rise in equilibrium ice sheet states with little (0.25 °C) or even no ocean warming above present. Therefore, today we are likely already at (or almost at) an overshoot scenario, supporting recent studies warning of substantial irreversible ice loss with little or no further climate warming."</p><p>A sea level rise of 4 metres was visualised for Christchurch City, New Zealand, by Earth.org in 2020. It's over a third of our city underwater.</p><p>It seems like something we should be doing everything we can to avoid happening.</p><p><a href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-025-02366-2" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">doi.org/10.1038/s43247-025-023</span><span class="invisible">66-2</span></a></p><p><a href="https://earth.org/data_visualization/sea-level-rise-by-2100-christchurch/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">earth.org/data_visualization/s</span><span class="invisible">ea-level-rise-by-2100-christchurch/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/06/250603115018.htm" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">sciencedaily.com/releases/2025</span><span class="invisible">/06/250603115018.htm</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/SeaLevelRise" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SeaLevelRise</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/nz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nz</span></a></p>
