Canada's last intact ice shelf collapses due to warming

And humans had very little to do with it!!! Our arrogance is astronomical.

I’ll let George explain.

@Kobe White Bar Owner "Save the planet" is a slogan. Its important not to read too much into it. Humans are changing the climate and it will have and is having serious repercussions on our health, well-being, and even survival. Even if we nuke this planet into a barren lifeless rock, yes, the planet will still be here technically, just like Mars is there, or Venus. But we will have destroyed everything that makes this planet special, everything that makes this planet inhabitable. "Save the planet" means "stop destroying the climate and environment we need to live".

I think you misunderstood George Carlin. His idea is that (short of nuking the whole planet) that once we kill ourselves the planet will heal ourselves. He was as sick of humanities' stupidity as I am and no longer cared if we killed ourselves. He was not saying "we didn't do it". He was saying "we are doing it and when we kill ourselves doing it the planet will recover and move on like we were never here".

The melting ice shelf is totally due to this infestation of humans the planet has.

Not a few posters here were ridiculing the idea that global warming is a threat not so long ago.

Did you miss the message that the "global warming" slogan was changed to "climate change" some time ago?

That never happened. Global warming has always been a subset of climate change. If people stopped saying "global warming" and switched emphasis to using "climate change" its because simple minded people were getting confused when the "weather" in their latitude was still "cold" in winter or not as hot as last year in summer. Things like "global averages" are just totally lost on some people. From their weather in their little spot on Nowhere, U.S.A. they will insist the whole planet must be fine and those walls the Marshall Islanders have been building are just them being paranoid and nothing to do with what they have been experiencing these past several years.
