- Scientist lays out plan to pump artificial snow over melting Antarctic. The proposal suggests using wind turbines to pump seawater water 1,500 metres up onto the ice. Then the water would need to be desalinated and pumped several hundred kilometres inland where it would be frozen into snow. https://advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/7/eaaw4132 19 comments science
