Hello Viewers I am Mrunal Nagdavane Thanks for joining this video.
So I have discussed /explain some points and very important of A76 Iceberg in simple language ( Street Language ).

An iceberg of the size of the spanish ialand of majorca has broken off the coast of Antarctica.
An enormous iceberg, a little bigger than the state of Rhode Island, has broken off of Antarctica.

The finger-shaped chunk of ice, which is roughly 105 miles (170 kilometers) long and 15 miles (25 kilometers) wide, was spotted by satellites as it calved from the western side of Antarctica's Ronne Ice Shelf, according to the European Space Agency. The berg is now floating freely on the Weddell Sea, a large bay in the western Antarctic where explorer Ernest Shackleton once lost his ship, the Endurance, to pack ice.

The 1,667-square-mile (4,320 square kilometers) iceberg — which now the world’s biggest and has been called A-76, after the Antarctic quadrant where it was first spotted — was captured by the European Union's Copernicus Sentinel, a two-satellite constellation that orbits Earth's poles. The satellites confirmed an earlier observation made by the British Antarctic Survey, which was the first organization to notice the breakaway. 

The Antarctica sheet has been warming faster than the rest of the planet. It causes the melting of the snow and ice covers as well as the retreat of the glaciers, particularly around the Weddell Sea.
As glaciers retreat, portions of ice break off and float adrift until these portions break apart or further crash into the land.
 
According to a study published in Nature earlier in May 2021, the average sea levels have risen about nine inches since 1880.

About the quarter of that increase in sea levels comes from the ice melting in Greenland and the Antarctica ice sheets, along with the land-based glaciers elsewhere.

The global rise in the sea level began around the start of the 20th century. Between the years 1900 and 2016, the average sea level globally had risen by 16-21 cm.

Climate scientists and researchers expect that the rate of sea-level rise will further accelerate during the 21st century. The latest statistics state that the sea levels have been rising by 3.6mm per year.
  
In 2020, the current took the Iceberg A-68A, which was the world’s largest at the time, from Antarctica to the coast of the South Georgia Island. Scientists and researchers feared that the iceberg will collide with an island that’s a breeding ground for penguins and sea lions. However, it ended up splitting and breaking into pieces instead.
 
I have tried to explain the some points and important points about A76 Iceberg in Simple Language ( Street Language ) in detail so that you understand easily.
 
I hope You guys understand easily everything so plz Subscribe to my channel plz support me.
 
Knowledge is that investment which which will gain us till the end of life.
 
Thank You So much.
