Earth Shook for Nine Days Following Climate-Driven Mega-Tsunami
Earth Shook for Nine Days Following Climate-Driven Mega-Tsunami A massive landslide and subsequent mega-tsunami in Greenland, triggered by the climate crisis in September 2023, caused the Earth to vibrate for nine days. This seismic event, which had never been seen before, left scientists puzzled. Earthquake sensors across the globe picked up the vibrations, but at first, nobody could figure out what caused them. Eventually, researchers discovered that global warming had led to this unprecedented disaster, showing how rapidly rising temperatures are starting to have significant planetary effects.
