The rate of global warming has doubled in only ten years. This rapid rate, outside of the influence of nature alone, should be unsustainable for any mass the size of Earth. However, if it is sustainable, danger signals today will be catastrophic results tomorrow. Indeed, new discoveries in the Antarctic region are cause for concern of...]]></description><link>https://www.facingfuture.earth/post/global-warming-surges-antarctic-seas-bubble</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69ca7395e7de3cb006069306</guid><pubDate>Thu, 26 Mar 2026 13:02:23 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/nsplsh_f1bd98fd60ef408e952da703e83af09f~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Robert Hunziker</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Doomsday Clock 80-Year Low]]></title><description><![CDATA[Albert Einstein, Robert Oppenheimer, and University of Chicago scientists founded the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists in 1945.
