On March 18, 2022, scientists at the Concordia research station in the east Antarctic recorded the largest spike in temperature ever recorded with the region experiencing a rise of 38.5C above its seasonal average.
Unfortunately, it’s not an isolated event with an increasing number of meteorologic anomalies being reported on the continent in the past two years.
The sea level rise map that was linked is interesting, I propose Hamilton to be the new international airport since both Auckland and Wellington’s will be underwater
If you look at prehistoric temperatures there was a time before humanity where the climate did massive swings up and down. Apparently there are some feedback effects which can cause these kinds of swings.

If this happens again it’s the end of not only humanity but probably most other animals and plants on the planet too.
