CBS News reported the collapse of a 7 square mile chunk of a Canadian ice shelf in the Arctic.  

What I found remarkable about the article, apart from the fact that giant sheets of ice are melting, is that the writer points out that the scientist is loath to mention that the cause is global climate change. Here's how it's reported by CBS News:

Derek Mueller, a research at Trent University, was careful not to blame global warming, but said the event was consistent with the theory that the current Arctic climate isn't rebuilding ice sheets.

 

"We're in a different climate now," he said. "It's not conducive to regrowing them. It's a one-way process."

 

Mueller said the sheet broke away last week from the Ward Hunt Ice Shelf off the north coast of Ellesmere Island in Canada's far north. He said a crack in the shelf was first spotted in 2002 and a survey this spring found a network of fissures.

 

Seems like a pretty convoluted explanation.
