Just think of us as one big glass of Bourbon, into which large chunks of ice keeping falling.
A large — approximately 97-square-mile — chunk of ice broke away from the Petermann Glacier in northern Greenland. This new ice island (as seen in the image above just to the right of center) is the largest iceberg formed in the Arctic since 1962, according to a University of Delaware news release. It’s about 40-percent larger than the District of Columbia.
Or about four times the size of Manhattan, per the NYT. Which makes us about what we are – a big glass of watery well-brand.
