Canada’s last intact #Arctic ice shelf collapses after years of warmer summers

#Canada's 4,000-year-old #Milne #IceShelf on the northwestern edge of #EllesmereIsland had been the country's last intact ice shelf until the end of July when ice analyst Adrienne White of the Canadian Ice Service noticed that #satellite photos showed that about 43% of it had broken off. She said it happened around July 30 or 31.
