What's happening to Greenland's most enigmatic glacier?

Scientists are concerned about the Petermann glacier in Greenland. The bloggers are not. Looking at satellite photos, the bloggers seem to be right. Could this be a first? The charity I strongly endorse is called Health in Harmony. Listen to my radio report here: www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08hnly0 Or read about it here: psmag.com/social-justice/save-the-trees-well-save-your-life-46121... for an explanation of their work.
