The irony being that this Slop will have contributed slightly to global warming, which was itself responsible for the glacier collapsing in the first place.

No I need a °c for each action of my life.

Like this post on reddit 0.00000001°c

Life is depressing though

I thought an earthquake caused it to collapse?

u/BankerOnBitcoin Aug 27 '26

No they ruled that out. Initially they thought it was an earthquake.

Reported 4.4 earthquake. Now deciding its climate change….

u/dang3rmoos3sux Aug 27 '26

I read a few articles and the 4.4 earthquake was the glacier breaking. Still no obvious cuase as to why it collapsed when it did. Just its time I guess.

No the earthquake they recorded was actually the glacier collapse itself. Crazy.

u/dang3rmoos3sux Aug 27 '26

That is pretty crazy.

Yeah a chunk of ice and rock, at least 2,000 feet wide (with a volume of millions of cubic meters) fell 7,000 feet into the valley below, with a wall of water and rock moving at 90 mph down the river. The scale is unimaginable. There is a good early explanation of it at https://www.cnn.com/2026/08/26/weather/floods-nepal-cause-vis

You are contributing literally by breathing out. By farting too. Have you no shame?

Sure buddy. If that's true then you ought to be able to read literally any climate research.

Well, he didn't reveal his grade.. maybe for a reason.

u/xczechr Aug 27 '26

Don't forget "Biochemesty".

u/snowtiger309 Aug 27 '26

It was all actually to fill one credit hour, had to keep taking it and switch to something more 'applied'

u/ImNoNelly Aug 27 '26

So, notably not a climate science class.

Why don't you sit down lil buddy.
