Segundo cientistas britânicos, um enorme icebergue destacou-se da Antárctida em 22 Janeiro 2023.
O bloco de gelo, que totaliza 1.550 quilómetros quadrados, destacou-se do bloco de gelo durante uma maré que aumentou uma fissura existente, informou em comunicado a British Antarctic Survey (BAS), um organismo de investigação nas zonas polares.
O mundo está um pouco caótico com a guerra que dura há já um ano. Terrível drama que tantas mortes têm causado.

Há ainda os sismos na Turquia e Síria que causaram tantas mortes de pessoas e animais, destruição de habitações, famílas destroçadas, uma imensa tragédia para estes dois países.
Uma equipa portuguesa constutuida por homens, mulheres e cães participaram durante dez dias em acções da salvamento, tendo ajudado a salvar uma criança de dez anos e um cão.
Imagem encorajadora, para salvaguardar o pessimismo perante um mundo em convulsão.
Here we are again! We published already Um imenso Icebergue destaca-se da Antárctida segundo BAS !. A huge iceberg nearly the size of Greater London has broken off the Antarctic ice shelf near a research station, the second such split in two years, researchers announced last Monday, 22 January 2023.
After this, Turkey and Syria suffered several earthquakes with thousands of dead. Women, men, children and animals. Families entirely disappeared. So sad !

We are respecting lockdown sinceDecember. Yes, like the most of European countries and all over the world. Not easy to survive without seeing family and friends. And no culture at all. Just some pedestrian randonée near home.
Well, we must face all together this cruel pandemic time, thinking about for better days.
Some bad news. Global warming continues. 2020 was not only the year of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was also the year of intensifying climate change: high temperatures, floods, droughts, storms, wildfires and even locust plagues. Even more worryingly, the world is heading for at least a 3°C temperature rise this century.
"We are facing a devastating pandemic, new heights of global heating, new lows of ecological degradation and new setbacks in our work towards global goals for more equitable, inclusive and sustainable development."
Antonio Guterres, UN Secretary-General, in The State of the Planet
“The last seven years have been the warmest seven years on record, typifying the ongoing and dramatic warming trend,” said GISS Director Gavin Schmidt. “Whether one year is a record or not is not really that important — the important things are long-term trends. With these trends, and as the human impact on the climate increases, we have to expect that records will continue to be broken.”
