In a devastating climate milestone, Antarctica’s Hektoria Glacier is melting at record speed, collapsing billions of tonnes of ice into the ocean. Satellite data reveals that this rapid glacier retreat could trigger a significant rise in global sea levels, potentially pushing the planet beyond the 1.5°C climate limit. Scientists are sounding the alarm, warning that this development may lead to catastrophic consequences for coastal cities and ecosystems worldwide.
