News Wrap: Greenland lost record amount of ice last year
In our news wrap Thursday, Greenland’s ice sheet lost a record 586 billion tons of ice last year -- more than double the annual average. A new satellite study reported the finding, which researchers blame on a combination of climate change and an occasional weather effect that sends warmer air over Greenland. Also, Dr. Anthony Fauci had outpatient surgery to remove a polyp on his vocal cord.
