Icebergs could reach Newfoundland by August

An iceberg expert in Halifax says that there is a chance of two huge icebergs from the Arctic to pass by Newfoundland as soon as August. One of the icebergs 84 square kilometers and the other 65 square kilometers both of them combined is about the size of Manhattan. All though there is a chance of witnessing this monster there is also a possibility that it might hit the Hibernia offshore oil platform. 


Well this could be a great attraction for the people of Newfoundland it also shows how global warming is affecting our poles. The affects of global warming have caused lots of loss in the amount of ice that is at our poles. The amount of ice that disappears daily is staggering.
