What caused the collapse of Canada's last complete Arctic ice shelf?

Canada's last complete Arctic ice shelf collapsed due to climate warming.

Recently, the last complete large polar ice shelf in Canada collapsed. In just two days at the end of July, 43% of the area disappeared, which is larger than Manhattan in new york.

According to the research report of Canadian Ice Service, there are many reasons for the collapse of Milne Ice Shelf, the last complete ice shelf in Canada, but as predicted, climate warming is the main reason.

In the past 30 years, the warming rate in the Arctic of Canada was twice as fast as that in the previous 30 years. This year, the Arctic of Russia and Canada experienced a rare high temperature of more than 30 degrees Celsius, which accelerated the melting of ice and snow, and even the rock-solid ice shelf was not spared.

Extended data

Global high temperature records are constantly updated:

According to the report of Global Seasonal Climate Update, in May and June this year, the sea level temperature in most parts of the world was higher than average, which led to higher than normal land temperature, especially in tropical areas and most parts of the northern hemisphere. Global warming is a factor causing this phenomenon.

National Geographic magazine reported that the global average surface temperature has increased by 0.9 degrees Celsius (1.6 degrees Fahrenheit) since 1906.

Extreme high temperature caused by climate warming is damaging human health. In 20 19, record-breaking high temperatures occurred in Australia, India, Japan and some European countries, among which severe heat waves in Japan caused more than1000 deaths and 18000 hospitalizations. The heat wave in France between June and September last year caused more than 1 1,000 abnormal deaths.
