A Severe Foehn Storm disintegrated in a couple of days 400 square kilometers of Antarctica’s Larsen B Ice shelf giving now a free way to land ice

Rapid disintegration of part of the Larsen B ice shelf, already dramatically collapsed in 2002, occurred two weeks ago, between January 19-20, 2022. This breakup is the latest in a series of remarkable events in the Larsen B embayment over the past twenty years triggered by several factors. This year, a warmer-than-average summer and a series of remarkable foehn storms triggered this huge umpteenth collapse.

At this stage the point is Mott but I assume dozens of people will be flying over the area (burning fuel) in order to 'assess' the situation and David will be asked to give a speech so the average person can understand ice melts when you warm it up
