Antarctica’s Extreme Cold: Rising Global Temperatures and Melting Ice Threaten Sea Levels

Doug McIntyre discusses the extreme cold at Concordia Station in Antarctica, where temperatures have plummeted to 100 degrees below zero. While Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth, the station’s high altitude contributes to the severe cold. However, Antarctica is warming, with its edges melting and creating massive icebergs. This phenomenon is also occurring in the Arctic, where rising ocean temperatures are causing ice melt. As a result, sea levels are expected to rise, potentially flooding distant cities like Miami. The warming in one part of the world is directly impacting the coldest regions.
