This report in The Washington Post looks at an effort by scientists to drill into the ice in Greenland to reach the bedrock below 1600 feet of ice using new tools and technologies. Scientists have less material under this ice than from the moon's surface. Melting of Greenland Ice Sheet would raise global sea levels by 24 feet, say engineers in this report, and it is important to understand how Greenland can change under rising temperatures on earth. Sarah Kaplan and Bonnie Jo Mount travel to a remote field camp on Prudhoe Dome in northwest Greenland ice sheet for this report.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
