“We have seen a massive acceleration of the speed with which these [Greenland] glaciers are moving into the sea. The ice is moving at 2 metres an hour on a front five kilometres long and 1,500 metres deep. That means that this one glacier puts enough fresh water into the sea in one day to provide drinking water for a city the size New York or London for a year.”
Robert Correll, Chairman of the Artic Climate Impact Assessment
