Meteorologist warns collapse of two Antarctic glaciers could flood every coastal city on Earth

Two of Antarctica's glaciers are both among the continent's biggest and fastest-melting, and both are holding our civilization hostage, according to meteorologist Eric Holthaus. He wrote a piece on Pine Island and Thwaites, that together hold back ice that could result in 11 feet of sea level rise. If these two glaciers collapse, every coastal city on our planet could flood.
