GORE: “Greenland is now losing 30 million tons of ice every hour. During the hour that we’re in this room, 30 million tons will go from Greenland. That is fresh water coming off Greenland into the North Atlantic, where a key part of the ocean current circulation system is involved. It could be disrupted. Some scientists disagree, but more and more, they’re raising the alarm. And if you look at the bottom statement, these peer-reviewed — these scientists say in this peer-reviewed study, 'We estimate a collapse around mid-century.' What?! What?! Some of the load-bearing elements of our entire Earth ecological system are at risk. And what are we doing? Just talking away, talking away, not making much progress. Again, I’m getting stirred up here so I’ll try to calm down. I'm gonna hand it to Gavin here in a minute, he'll maybe take the temperature down a little bit.”
