Title of the text: The First Glacier Killed by Climate Change Is Getting a Haunting Memorial in Iceland
URL/web address:https://www.livescience.com/65996-iceland-ok-glacier-memorial-plaque.html
Main idea:
Okjökull (or just "Ok," for short) is one of 400 ancient glaciers crowning the mountains of Iceland — at
least, it was, until global warming shrank it so much that Ok officially lost its glacier status in 2014.
1. Iceland's glaciers are losing about 10 billion tons of ice every year, and all 400 of them will likely
follow in Ok's cold, wet footsteps by the year 2200 without a serious reduction in greenhouse
gas emissions in the coming decades.
2. "Ok is the first Icelandic glacier to lose its status as a glacier," the plaque reads. "In the next 200
years all our glaciers are expected to follow the same path. This monument is to acknowledge
that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it."
