Scientists have also scrutinised whether it's possible to preserve the ice sheets of Greenland with reinforced high-tension cables, preventing icebergs from moving into the sea.

科学家们还仔细研究了是否有可能用加固的高压电缆来保护格陵兰岛冰原，防止冰山流入大海。

Arches of ice that usually span Nares Strait, between Greenland and Ellesmere Island, failed to form in 2007, giving sea ice an additional exit route from the Arctic.

2007年，通常横跨在格林兰岛和埃尔斯米尔岛之间的内尔斯海峡上的冰拱未能形成，这给了海冰从北冰洋流逝的一个额外路径。

That breathing space would be useful if something really bad, such as the collapse into the sea of part of the Greenland ice-shelf, was in imminent danger of happening, and the realisation of the danger led to a political agreement that climate change had to be stopped rapidly.

ECONOMIST: Global warming

Very few scientists think Greenland would be stable in an Arctic with little or no summer sea-ice, and opinion is split as to whether it is past its tipping point already.

Sure, but even if Greenland and Antarctica melting is on ice for a while, what about that dreaded sea level-hiking runoff from those glaciers?
