The UK's Royal Air Force (RAF) has now released footage from its low-level reconnaissance flight over the giant iceberg, A68a.
The 4,200 sq km behemoth is crumbling - but the video footage also underscores the berg's great size.

There's nothing humans can do to prevent where it beaches itself (I also thought at the time of watching the clip). IMO, yhe BBC are highlighting a pointless issue.

(L*W*H math) Ice has a density of 9.2 E11kg/km^3. (engineering) The Antarctic ice cap (NOT sea ice!) contains 2.482 E19 kg of ice, 2.482 E16 tonne, 24.82 E6 Gt. (science) Between 2002 and 2012 the Antarctic ice cap “lost” about 1,200 Gt or a decrease of 0.0048%, 48 ppm, per decade. (technology) At this rate the ice cap will be all gone in 206,850 years. (more math) I don’t plan on waiting around. You? Every year the SEA ICE swings from around 3E6 km^2 during summer to 14E6 km^2 (doubling in size) during winter. (technology) Thwaites glacier is 192,000 km^2 or about 1.3% of the ice cap. Yawn!!!!!
