A humpback whale swims past an iceberg in Disko Bay near Ilulissat, Greenland. Earlier this year scientists released a study in which they concluded that the country’s glaciers, which all descend from the Greenland Ice Sheet, have retreated about 20% more than previously estimated. Of the 200 glaciers included in the study, only one has grown since 1985. Overall, the amount of glacial ice melting globally has increased markedly over the past 30 years

Every year billions of tonnes of ice from the Ilulissat Icefjord calve into Disko Bay just south of Ilulissat, Greenland. The iceberg which sank the Titanic originated here.
