We are led to believe that climate change is a phenomenon of the 21st century but the climate has been changing centuries before today.
Ever since the industrial revolution (from 1760 to about 1840) glaciers throughout the world have been shrinking at an increased rate. And glaciers make up 70% of our fresh water supply.
So as you can see, climate change has been happening for some time.
I'm certain that you have seen video of large chunks of ice falling off a glacier into the sea. For some strange reason, that is called calving.
Just thought that you would like to know.
