antarctica

saStudy after study shows that Antarctica isn't in great shape. Its ice shelves are disappearing and its ice sheets are collapsing, hastening swiftly rising sea levels. Sounds terrible.

But just in case you wanted a second opinion, a new study out of Princeton University takes a look at a decade's worth of satellite data. Their results, published in Earth and Planetary Science Letters, show that not only is Antarctica melting, it's melting faster than ever before.
