Grist: Last week, a much discussed new paper in the journal Nature seemed to suggest to some that we neednt worry too much about the melting of Greenland, the mile-thick mass of ice at the top of the globe. The research found that the Greenland ice sheet seems to have survived a previous warm period in Earths history - the Eemian period, some 126,000 years ago - without vanishing (although it did melt considerably). But Ohio State glaciologist Jason Box isnt buying it. At Mondays Climate Desk...

Could climate change turn humans into hobbits?
