Blue glaciers are a trademark of Iceland, a Northern country, 11% of whose territory is covered with ice. But glaciers have started to disappear, and there’s a possibility that soon, they’ll vanish altogether. Okjokull glacier was formed about 700 years ago. In 1901, it stretched for 15 square miles and had a depth of 165 feet. It now takes up less than half a square mile and is only 50 feet deep. It took a century for the huge glacier to turn into a small piece of ice; and in 2014, the glacier stopped moving and was officially considered extinct. And a similar occurrence has happened all around the world. Other videos you might like:

Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
– Okjokull lost its prefix “jokul” which means “glacier” in Icelandic, and they started calling it Ok, after the volcano on which it sits. – A geologist from Iceland, Oddur Sigurdsson, predicted the quick disappearance of glaciers as far back as 10 years ago. 56 of 330 small glaciers have disappeared in the Northern part of Iceland already, but Okjokull was the biggest of them all. – A similar occurrence has happened all around the world. Glaciers now cover about 10% of the Earth's surface, but are quickly melting because the average temperature on Earth has been steadily rising. – Pedersen Glacier, located in Kenai Fjords National Park, receded throughout the 20th century, exposing Pedersen Spit and Pedersen Lagoon. There are almost no traces of the glacier left now.
– Carroll glacier used to be 15 miles long, but little of it is left now. A calm lake, touching the base of a small hill, is in its place. The snow that used to lie on top of the hills and lakeshores also melted, and now everything is green. – The territory, which is mostly green now, used to be covered with a thick layer of ice and snow a hundred years ago. Muir Glacier can hardly be recognized now after the glacier sunk back about 12.5 miles. – The vast icy expanses of Muir glacier have turned into a huge lake. There used to be no plants here because of the low temperatures, but after the glacier melted, the valley bloomed and filled with ocean water, creating Muir Inlet. – Toboggan Glacier used to cover a large territory, but less than a hundred years later, it’d thinned by 492 ft. It was a dull gray landscape before, but by the year 2000, brushwood had covered the slopes of the hills.
– Greenland is #2 on the list of places that are losing their glaciers quickly.
– In just one day, July 31, 2019, Greenland lost 11 billion tons of ice; and 197 billion tons in the whole month of July. This is 3 times higher than ecologists had predicted. – #3 in the list of the fastest melting regions is the Southern Andes, which lost 1.2 trillion tons of glacier ice over half a century.
– Qori Kalis Glacier, in Peru, one of the few tropical glaciers, has been melting for 33 years, and continues to melt at an alarming rate.
– In 2009, Bolivia had to close down the Chacaltaya ski resort. It was situated at a height of between 15,400 and 17,700 feet, and was the highest ski resort in the world. – In 2005 a snowcap on top of Kilimanjaro, Tanzania melted for the first time in 11,000 years. The height of the mountain is 19,350 feet, and it’s never been that warm there. – 9 years ago, NASA started mission IceBridge to observe the polar ice in the Arctic and Antarctic. – This year, they reported that the polar ice sheets are smaller than ever, and the speed of the melting is faster than scientists predicted.

More A New World Melted a 700-year-old Glacier Videos

Picture this: you’re driving on a highway, and suddenly see something you’ve failed to notice earlier: your gas tank is almost empty! You drive to the closest gas station, only to find they have no other gas but 87. Should you pump it inside your car or not? What’s the difference between those numbers? In fact, gasoline can actually be different, and it’s not one type fits all. In the US, the most typical numbers you’ll see are 87, 89, and 92. In other parts of the world, the numbers can vary, but most common ones are 91, 95, and 98. The higher the number value, the higher the cost of the fuel, so it might seem natural to choose the cheapest one and go with it, but it’s not as simple as it sounds. Other videos you might like:

If you have an older car, you’re lucky! 1:06
The “knocking” 😱 2:36
Why higher octane fuel costs more 4:44
Ethanol fuel 5:12
The diesel engines! What’s wrong with these guys? 7:12 #cars #drivingtips #brightside SUMMARY:
– It’s a surprising thing to say, but if you have an older car, you’re lucky. That’s because you generally don’t have to care about which type of gas to pump inside your vehicle. – The 87 is a basic type of gas that fits most older cars. 89 is a midgrade octane rating that’s suitable for newer vehicles; and 92 is the premium gasoline that’s mostly required to drive elite and sports cars, but sometimes even new middle-segment automobiles can demand the 92 and nothing below that.
– Manufacturers may require a higher octane fuel because their engines receive more air thanks to supercharging or turbocharging. – More air in the engine means faster ignition, and that can lead to early detonating of the mix. With high-octane fuel, this is usually out of the question, which can’t be said about the low-octane type.
– The damage caused by wrong fuel is not immediate, though. You’ll probably be able to drive for weeks before encountering any trouble.
– In the long run, the cost of repairing the engine will outweigh the fuel economy by far. In addition, the higher the octane rating, the “cleaner” the gas, so it will both help keep your car in a good condition and reduce your emissions.
– Some time ago, however, a new type of gas appeared on the market, and it has a separate label: E10 or E15. The letter E stands for ethanol, while the number indicates its percentage in the fuel — 10 or 15%, respectively. – Ethanol is basically one of the most efficient additives in gasoline. It has a high octane rating by itself (about 109), it’s much safer for the environment, it’s renewable, and it reduces dependence on oil.
– What could happen if you accidentally pump diesel into your gas-powered car? At first, you’ll drive as if nothing’s wrong. That’s because the engine will use up the remains of gasoline in the tank. But as soon as those last few drops are expended, your car will just stop.
– If the opposite happens, however, and you fill your diesel tank with gasoline, things get much worse. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

More What Happens If You Put the Wrong Fuel in Your Car Videos

Although modern royal families are way more down-to-earth than their predecessors, there are still a lot of everyday things they never do. Queen Elizabeth II was brought up in a pretty strict environment. As a result, she’s never done a lot of the things you do every day without giving it a second thought! Do you know, for example, that the Queen has never taken a selfie? Yep, unfortunately, royal protocols don't approve of this innocent hobby. Also, she’s never taken a driving test. But that doesn't mean that the Queen can't drive – oh, she CAN and DOES!

More 15 Things the Queen Has Never Done in Her Life Videos

How do you feel about public restrooms? Dread? But have you ever wondered why toilet stall doors rarely reach all the way to the floor? Well, it turns out that there’s not one, but several fully valid reasons for not enclosing bathroom stalls! Some of them are obvious, while others turned out to be unexpected. For example, fully-enclosed stalls give visitors a cozy feeling of isolation. They cut out the noise of heavy bathroom traffic, and as a result, people lose the sense of others who're waiting for their turn. They get more relaxed and spend longer on taking care of their business. Also, leaving the gap makes bathrooms easier to clean! Other videos you might like:

It isn't so easy to get rid of the smells inside 1:33
Enclosed bathroom stalls are cheaper 1:57
It discourages inappropriate behavior 2:37
You can ask your neighbor to give you toilet paper 3:31
It speeds up the traffic 4:05
It makes bathrooms easier to clean 4:31
Why do most bathroom main entry doors open inwards? 5:17 #factsyouneverknew #brightside SUMMARY:
– If a person loses consciousness or has some other urgent medical condition in a fully enclosed stall, it could take hours until someone notices it. – Space below the stall door helps visitors to see that there’s someone inside, and prevents people from barging in on another person.
– Fully enclosed stalls are more likely to provide you with an unforgettable gag-inducing experience since it isn't so easy to get rid of the smells inside.
– A bit more obvious, and probably one of the most common reasons, is that not fully enclosed bathroom stalls are cheaper! – Psychologically, the less protected and enclosed a person feels, the less likely they are to do something harmful and risky.
– It's next to impossible to get out of a fully-enclosed bathroom stall on your own once the lock jams. – Fully-enclosed stalls give visitors a cozy feeling of isolation. They cut out the noise of heavy bathroom traffic, and as a result, people lose the sense of others who're waiting for their turn. – A custodian can simply run their mop under the doors instead of wasting time on opening and closing each of them.
– Next to many public toilets, there are closets, drinking fountains, and other utilities. And a door that opens outward would cause a lot of inconvenience to those who need to use these amenities. – Also, doors that open inward help to handle unpleasant smells, which aren't rare for public bathrooms.
– A "push-to-enter" door also makes sense if you're going to the bathroom to wash something off your hands. This way, you can use your shoulder to open the bathroom door, and you don't have to touch the door handle.

More Why Doors in Public Toilets Don’t Reach the Floor Videos

The Amazon Rainforest is big news right now as fires continue to consume its lush landscape. It’s essential to our planet’s climate, ecosystem, and more. If we do nothing, the Amazon could be gone within 100 years. What would that mean for us? Well, did you know that a lot of the ingredients in our modern medicines come from the plants of the Amazon? These include the most important medications, such as essential vaccines. Millions of people depend on the Amazon basin for their income. So it would certainly be devastating for South American people. Also, if the fires continue, not only will we lose the huge oxygen source, but extra pollution will be released. And that is not all!

Known as the lungs of the world, around 20% of the forest has been lost in the last 50 years: By Joao Luiz Bulcao/Polaris/East News, https://www.eastnews.ru/pictures/picture/id/43240303/i/35/t/60 Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
– Many of the plants of the Amazon are still being studied today with the hope of finding ingredients that will cure some of our most serious diseases.
– The Amazon Rainforest covers about 40% of South America, covering 8 countries. If it was suddenly gone, a lot of South America’s exports and businesses would disappear with it. – Our planet gets 20% of its oxygen from this Rainforest, due to its massive size.
– Covering just over 2 million square miles, the Amazon is home to 30% of our planet’s wildlife.
– If the Amazon were destroyed, you can kiss your morning joe goodbye, in addition to fruits, rice, and CHOCOLATE, just to name a few.
– In addition to oxygen and medicinal plants, we’d also lose a substantial supplier of minerals, fresh water, and food.
– Science has shown that rainforests, in general, influence the climate both globally and locally.
– Unhealthy soil would add to the disaster: excessive rain + unanchored soil = mudslide. Farmland and homes would be overcome with rain and mud.
– Rural people will be forced into the cities, which are already home to millions. This will cause overcrowding, which comes with its own problems. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

More Will We Lose Oxygen If We Lose the Amazon Rainforest? Videos

The atmosphere of Venus is corrosive, scorching-hot, and extremely toxic. The planet's peppered with fire-breathing volcanoes, massive mountains, countless craters, and gigantic lava plains. The temperatures on the planet are so incredibly high that they could melt lead. And the atmospheric pressure is so immense that it would instantly crush any living being. But recently, scientists have discovered that millions of years ago, Venus was probably nothing like the uninhabitable, hostile world it is today! The newest scientific theory claims that Venus could’ve had a pleasant, stable climate for billions of years before something went wrong. In fact, the planet resembled Earth as it used to be at the beginning of its life… Other videos you might like:

🙂 Some more curious facts about Venus 🙃 5:56 #venus #planets #brightside Preview photo credit: Observations suggest Venus may have had water oceans in its distant past. A land-ocean pattern like that above was used in a climate model to show how storm clouds could have shielded ancient Venus from strong sunlight and made the planet habitable: By NASA, https://climate.nasa.gov/news/2475/nasa-climate-modeling-suggests-venus-may-have-been-habitable
The Magellan probe that orbited Venus from 1990 to 1994 was able to peer through the thick Venusian clouds and build up the above image by emitting and re-detecting cloud-penetrating radar. Visible as the bright patch below central North is Venus' highest mountain Maxwell Montes. Other notable features include numerous mountains, coronas, impact craters, tessera, ridges, and lava flows: By NASA, https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/goddard/2017/scientist-to-discuss-venus-the-forgotten-mysterious-planet-at-library-of-congress Animation is created by Bright Side. SUMMARY:
– Astronomers did thorough research and built a model of a virtualized Venus-like world.
– This model demonstrated that for most of its history, the hot planet had oceans with liquid water, adequate temperatures, and stable tectonic plates.
– During that time, the planet was most likely covered with oceans, which were from 30 to 1,000 ft deep. Also, some water was locked in the soil of the planet. – For 3 billion years, right until something irrevocable happened 700 million years ago, Venus could’ve been habitable! – The main theory links the dramatic changes on Venus with a massive geological event which made more than 80% of the planet resurface. – The magma solidified on the surface of the planet, covering the rocks with a thick, impenetrable layer. And this barrier prevented the rocks from reabsorbing the CO2.
– The atmosphere on the planet soon became 90 times as dense as on Earth. It’s no wonder that, combined with enormous amounts of CO2, it led to a runaway greenhouse effect. – Even though the climate of Venus changed so dramatically, and the planet seems to be totally uninhabitable, scientists don't deny that one day the hot planet could be transformed again!
– This planet has the most circular orbit of all the planets in the Solar System. – Venus has more volcanoes than any other planet in the Solar System. Astronomers have already discovered up to 1,600 on the surface, but there might be others, too small for people to see. – Winds on Venus can reach incredible speeds. In the middle cloud layer of the atmosphere, they can accelerate up to 450 miles per hour! And that's faster than the swiftest tornado on our planet. – Venus’ slow rotation causes its magnetic field to be way weaker than that of Earth. – Venus is one of the very few planets we can see crossing in front of the sun. Unfortunately, it happens very rarely.
– Venus is the brightest planet in the sky. And, it's the second brightest celestial object, after the Moon. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz

It seems like there are Wi-Fi hotspots literally everywhere these days. You can connect to the net at restaurants, banks, office buildings and, in many places, public transportation. But what about airplanes? A few years ago, boarding a commercial airliner meant cutting yourself off from the rest of the world – communications wise. Now, more and more airlines offer inflight Wi-Fi. You might be thrilled, but it turns out there are people who beg to differ. So, what’s up? Is inflight Wi-Fi a bad thing? And how do planes get the Internet from 35,000 feet above the ground? Other videos you might like:

– About ten years ago, when the first passengers got access to the web, it was exclusively thanks to satellite-based systems.
– The best you could do was check your e-mail that only contained text – it would take longer than the actual flight to load a picture.
– Then came the ground-based systems. They work a lot like your cell phone. – The whole plane basically becomes one huge hotspot, and an on-board router distributes the Wi-Fi signal to the passengers.
– The only problem with this type of connection is that it's only possible over land, because there are obviously no towers in the water. – The US currently has a more developed infrastructure for both satellite and ground-based systems, so the connection you can get flying over the States is stronger and cheaper than in Europe, for example. – Like when using any other shared network, your private or financial data could be compromised by cyber criminals. – The equipment itself is expensive; the antenna catching the signal increases drag, causing the plane to need more fuel; and there are also engineering and maintenance costs to keep it all working. – In case you're annoyed with the low speed, refuse to use Wi-Fi on board out of principle, or simply fly the no Wi-Fi airlines, here's a list of ideas to keep yourself busy during your flight
– You can use your off-the-grid time to edit them or create a posting plan using offline apps that let you see what the pictures will look like on your Instagram grid.
– If you're traveling with your laptop, don't miss an opportunity to clean it and organize the files you have on it.
– There are all kinds of podcasts in this world – from how to motivate yourself to be more productive, to what a journey inside a black hole would look like.
– You can also try setting some goals, creating a mind map of the person you want to become, or make a pros-and-cons list if you have some dilemma that's bugging you. – In case you packed in a rush, go through your carry-on and rearrange it in a more organized way.
– You're not allowed to bring liquids or large bottles on board, but you can take a fiber face mask, spa gloves or a de-puffing eye mask with you. They'll make the air travel experience a little less dramatic for your skin. – Finally, there are always the good old read a book, listen to some music, watch a movie, or chat to your neighbor options.

Graphology is the science of analyzing signatures. Yeah, people actually study this stuff! Your signature and handwriting are completely unique to you! Have you ever wondered what they reveal about your personality? For example, if you can clearly read the first and last name, that means that person is straightforward, sincere, and honest, and they likely have nothing to hide. If you can’t read the signature, that individual may have problems with authority and isn’t very confident in themselves. They may have some secrets, too… Other videos you might like:

What Your Body Parts Say About Your True Character https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUVNT083RJ0& TIMESTAMPS:
Is the signature legible? 0:21
Is it a full signature? 0:45
What is the angle of the signature? 1:08
How big are the letters? 1:34
How does the first and last name compare in size? 2:09
Are the letters curved or straight? 2:36
What is the size of any uppercase letters? 3:08
What is the pressure? 3:44
Are there any extra embellishments or decorations? 4:12
Is the signature uniform and straight? 4:47 👉 Your handwriting is something that can be studied too! 👈 5:13 #personalitytest #handwriting #brightside SUMMARY:
– An incomplete signature indicates a very private but strong and independent person. It’s also a sign of efficiency.
– If someone’s signature is angled upward, this means that they’re a fighter, ambitious, full of life, and has the need to succeed in their career. This person may also be impatient, though. – If the letters within the signature are large, that person is most likely a very confident extrovert…maybe too confident. Small letters indicate an introvert. – Say someone signs their name, and their first name looks bigger than their last name. This means that they’re a very independent and original person and feels that they can and should only be represented by who they are as a person.
– If the letters in your signature are curvy and loopy, you’re probably a laid-back, happy person with a good sense of style. You probably have a lot of friends and a bubbly personality.
– If any uppercase letters are way larger than other letters—like three times as big — that person probably has a big ego and doesn’t like criticism. – If you’re pressing hard on the paper, you may have an authoritarian personality, which could also mean you have a temper. If you put a soft pressure on the paper, this will create a smoother signature, which means that you are calm, adaptable, and pleasant to be around. – Is your signature on a straight line—not at an angle at all? This means that you are completely in control, of your emotions and otherwise. You’re a balanced person, who makes equal time for work and play. – If your regular handwriting slants to the right, you are an open, social person and are ready to take on the world. – If the loops on your Ls are closed, you might be feeling tense or stressed. If the loops on your Ls are open, that means you’re relaxed and spontaneous, and you enjoy being creative and expressing yourself. – If your S’s are hard-edged or pointy, you are a deep, intellectual thinker and like new challenges; this also indicates high ambition. – A big space between words indicates that you like your freedom and independence. A small space between words says that you don’t like to be alone and enjoy the company of others. – If you finish off your t with a long cross, you are determined and enthusiastic, but you might be a bit stubborn.
– Handwriting experts say that if you make the dot higher on the page, you have an active imagination! If your dot is close to your i, you have a determined and focused mind, and you can concentrate well. – Righties also have really good language and speaking skills, and are likely to live longer! – Lefties process information at a pretty fast rate, and are more likely to be geniuses. Lefties also tend to be more creative, self-expressive, and into the arts. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
