Iceberg Watered Down the Sea

A massive iceberg split off from Antarctica in 2017. Scientists kept an eye on the melting megaberg, as it traveled nearly 2,500 miles. During its last 3 months, it released 152,000,000,000 tons of freshwater, around South Georgia Island. That’s like emptying 61,000,000 Olmpic-sized swimming pools, into the fragile ecosystem. The impact is under investigation.
