Still don’t believe that global warming will have any noticeable effects?
Well, you’re wrong. It just did. Gino Casassa, a scientist who studies glaciers in Chile, has observed a massive melt-off from a glacier that filled a mountain lake that then suddenly released its contents to cause a tsunami that surged upstream against the flow of the Baker River in Chile.
The event, which took place at the beginning of this week, may occur again soon. The Colonia glacier, which melts into Cachet Lake, had already filled the lake to its normal level again by Wednesday.
