These new measurements, based on 50 million laser readings from a NASA satellite, confirm what some of the more pessimistic scientists thought: The melting along the crucial edges of the two major ice sheets is accelerating and is in a self-feeding loop. The more the ice melts, the more water surrounds and eats away at the remaining ice.
Are you saying that maybe they should turn off those 50 million lasers pointed at the ice!? Maybe that's the cause of all the melting.
