Viral: Throwback Video Of When World's Tallest Ice Cream Cone Was Made In Norway
This colossal cone weighed almost a tonne and had the capacity to hold 1,080 litres of ice cream. Find out more below.

Greenland's Ice Shrinking At 30 Million Tonnes Per Hour, Warns New Study
The study revealed that the Greenland ice sheet has lost approximately 5,000 square kilometers of ice at its edges since 1985, equivalent to a trillion tons of ice.

Covid Lockdown Prevented Melting Of 27 Tonnes Of Himalayan Ice, Snow: Study
The authors estimate that the reduced anthropogenic pollutant emissions during the Indian lockdown was responsible for 71.6 per cent of the reduction in radiative forcing on snow in April 2020 compared to the same period in 2019.

Greenland Ice Sheet Hottest In 1,000 Years: Study
Greenland is losing trillions of tonnes of ice every decade. This ice loss is accelerating, and Greenland contains enough water to raise sea levels by 7 metres.

Greenland Ice Sheet Sheds Half-A-Trillion Tonnes: Study
Greenland's massive ice sheet saw a record net loss of 532 billion tonnes last year, raising red flags about accelerating sea level rise, according to findings released Thursday.

Climate Change "Tipping Points" Too Close For Comfort
Loading the atmosphere with five million tonnes of CO2 every hour has pushed Earth dangerously close to a no-return threshold, beyond which lies an unlivable hothouse world, top climate scientists have warned.

Watch: Greenland Ice Sheet Turns Into 10 Billion Tonnes Of Water In Hours
When one thinks of Greenland, images of an icebound, harsh and forbidding landscape probably come to mind, not a landscape of ice pocked with melt ponds and streams transformed into raging rivers. And almost certainly not one that features wildfires.

Ice, Ice Maybe? Myanmar Cop Held For Crystal Meth Switch
Drug experts believe Myanmar may now be the world's biggest meth producer, with jungle labs in ungovernable areas of Shan state churning out untold tonnes of ice and hundreds of millions of meth pills -- known regionally as "yaba".

Melting Ice Sheets May Cause "Climate Chaos", Says Report
Billions of tonnes of meltwater flowing into the world's oceans from the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets could boost extreme weather and destabilise regional climate within a matter of decades, researchers said Wednesday.

Greenland's Melting Ice-Sheet Bed Releases Tonnes Of Methane, Says Study
Researchers have found that the Greenland ice sheet emits tonnes of methane, showing that sub-glacial biological activity impacts the atmosphere far more than it was thought previously.
