New study shows one of world's largest glaciers is actually growing — not shrinking

n January, freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) claimed the world "is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change."

But according to new data from NASA, one of the previously fastest shrinking glaciers in the world is growing again, calling into question the narrative that rapid climate change — i.e., global warming — poses a significant threat to the existence of the human race, let alone the entire planet.

What are the details?
For the last 20 years, the Jakobshavn Glacier in Greenland was one of the fastest shrinking ice sheets in the world, losing on average 1.8 miles of ice annually while thinning 130 feet per year, according to The Associated Press.

But in 2016 something changed: The glacier began growing again, at about the same rate it was previously retreating, researchers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory said in a newly published Nature Geoscience journal article.

"At first we didn't believe it. We had pretty much assumed that Jakobshavn would just keep going on as it had over the last 20 years," Ala Khazendar, the study's lead author, said, according to USA Today.
