Glaciers are so cool and many ways that they can make iceberg and plenty other stuff and one of these videos there was a giant iceberg. When I forget the name of the news explorers went and explored the cave and climbed on top of the walls. it did other stuff That was really cool cause it shows you how climate change is happening minute by minute because in the iceberg there was a giant hole in the middle of it so that means they had to melt big enough so they could make that big enough hole that’s probably taking over 20 years to make that in another one of these videos, they talk about plucking and other stuff that was one in the videos and another video they talked about how the glaciers could make lakes and a couple other things and another one of the videos or in a couple of them it shows you how the iceberg is breaking apart due to climate chains and heat so it breaks apart and then makes big waves, then freeze together because of the water because it’s negative something degrees, so the ice freezes together, and then iceberg can break ships like the titanic they ran into a Jagger what is super big underneath the water but super small above the water so that’s how the titanic sunk on the iceberg and usually a glacier is 180 feet thick so that means the biggest one was 8860 inches deck and it was 40 miles long. There are still iceberg left and where the places they are but they are going by really fast because of climate change so we have to do something to stop it and in another one of those videos it talked about over 100 to 200 years ago. There was so many icebergs moving around the Earth was super cold and a iceberg form it takes 150 200 years so I hope we can do something about making the climate change stop I think glaciers are pretty cool because when they break off they can make a bunch of waves and super satisfying when they break off

I like this video because it teachers you about glaciers and what they do for example, when glaciers move a lot, they take rocks with them, and the rocks make the ground under smooth and glaciers will melt and form back to ice and it takes about 100– 150 days for a glacier to fully freeze. I also liked how they said when the top layer of the ice melts it’s kind of fresh water

I think a glacier is snow that’s on a mountain that froze to ice and breaks off into icebergs I wanna imagine what would happen if you’re on a moving glacier, you would probably feel it moving, but not that much until it falls somewhere but I don’t think anybody should be on a moving glacier

Glaciers can do is glacier can pick up materials its call this erosion. On the bottom of the glacier seep down into the rock below when it freezes it and opens up. The cracks in the rock. This is known as freeze thaw weathering then as the glass flows downhill pieces of rock come loose, and the. Glacier pulls them along with its call this plucking these rocks and stones scrape along the glass taking more rocks and stones along. This is called abrasion the glacier transports the materials as it flows downhill. Some of it is hidden inside or at the base of the glass can’t be seen, but sometimes it is transported on the top of the glacier.

Glaciers are an interesting thing. I wonder if glaciers will be around when my kids are alive because due to climate change in the world getting increasingly hotter, the iceberg from wrong long ago or starting to melt now I hope that we can fix the glaciers that are melting. If we fix the glaciers that are melting, we will be able to Keep the glaciers that are around now safe and somebody’s videos you N one shows you the explore/news explorers, Iceland, and when inside a big crack and went and climbing in the cave and got super good shots of ice inside the cave, but the one thing is if they were to touch the bottom of the cave, it would be all slippery so they had to use a climbing thing that would make them not touch the ground And I think that is pretty cool so one of the videos that I was super cool and those climate changed over the last hundred to 200 years it has been melting and melting down, melting and melting down a giant iceberg. Avoid the cooler is scientist, glow in space, and find a way to See what climate change is doing to the Earth so the scientist and they went out and found what was going on to earth what is going on the earth now is it’s overheating and it is melting in the ice is ice glaciers but it only if this only if it is low to the ground let’s say it’s in high elevation like the mountains in Mount Everest. Those will not melt over time because they are high up in the sky and up there. It’s super windy and cold so it’s gonna produce snow super easily, and some ways we could kind of change we can make all climates smaller and make them not as big we can And there’s many other reasons scientist can make better ways to do it and another one those videos they talk about plucking plucking is when when the glacier moves 100 feet a day or maybe 100 feet a year it slowly picks up rocks and when it picks up rocks, the rocks go downhill with the glacier, and when it goes downhill with the glacier, the glacier makes an avalanche because it’s going downhill Ways we can prevent plucking we put walls around the iceberg, so it wouldn’t pluck. There are some other things like and then other one. These videos talks about how a glacier can form a lake or a river bend a river a Riverbend is when a lake is not fully formed yet and it is starting to form that is a Riverbend but a lake what you probably know is a type of water what consumes River is when a river is starting to get made it’s not fully made yet, but it’s starting to get made and once it’s fully made it makes a lake and then one more of these videos last years more about the glacier like how glaciers can take 150 years to fully form so that means most of the glaciers we have now have been around for over 200 years or more than 200 years they take 100 to 150 years to form the reason they take so long is because many glaciers are now getting exist cause of climate change, and the only way we can fix climate change is if we just make the earth cooler in someway I hope some people recognize that climate change is really becoming bad now and we can fix it because right before I talked about how how the Earth is getting hotter because of climate change, so help their scientist scientist, and find a way to cool down the Earth and not make it as hot

Just like how the reporter said this truly is Breathtaking. This climate climate change is absolutely wild. How can this happen? There’s probably some chunks that are as big as a School that just fall off like it’s nothing. I also noticed one chance of the glacier for the inside is pure light blue ish. Also, those people who have to rescue the people fall down are so brave I could never even think about going in such a deep hole and being stuck but you have to climb back up all your strength and mobility, but also probably having another person right next to you holding onto you, scared for their life takes so much bravery.

In the video, I see on the moon so much glaciers, and parts of it are falling off and when do you think about it that’s and change the whole surface of the Earth. Not only is that a huge chunk of land that probably could even cover some bulidnfs like maybe even half of are school it’s just falling off carelessly like a feather.. I didn’t make huge splashes making tourist click their camera. It’s showing the beginning stages of ice versus life as a photo into the ocean. Did you even know that’s how the titanic sink that can even need some more ships sinking, but with are technology its not very likely. Could you imagine does being around big blocks of ice to censorship and you’re just floating rate around it any chance you just get splashed by huge chunk of water it’s crazy. This is why I truly believe that glaciers should be appreciated while we have them as their truly a phenomenon.
