In 1953, Rachel Carson had the last word, and it's not good news.

Will the sea around us become the sea above us? The last words of this 1953 documentary are startlingly prescient: (Quote) There is a theory so startling and so scientifically documented that all the world might well take notice. The theory is that here in the Arctic, buried beneath a billion tons of frozen sea, hides an astonishing secret. If all the ice and all the world continues to melt, the levels of all the seas will rise 100 feet or more, and the great cities of the world might well be drowned. It has been established beyond all reasonable doubt that the great Arctic change of climate started somewhere about 1900 and has spread so rapidly that small glaciers have already disappeared. The big ones are melting at a startling rate. Man, with all the science of the past at his command, now knows that the melting of all these glaciers... might one day drown more than half the earth.

What is the fate of the world?

Is this the end?
