World’s biggest iceberg heading toward penguin-packed island off Antarctica

Wall of ice the size of Rhode Island could slam into South Georgia Island The world’s biggest iceberg — a wall of ice the size of Rhode Island — is lumbering toward a remote island off Antarctica that’s home to millions of penguins and seals. The trillion-ton slab of ice — called a megaberg — could slam into South Georgia Island and get stuck or be guided around it by currents. If it gets stuck it could make it hard for penguin parents to feed their babies and some young could even starve. Overall, however, researchers aren’t too worried about major harm from the iceberg, named A23a. What’s happening is more spectacular than dangerous, scientists said. It’s also a natural process happening more frequently because of human-caused climate change, said British Antarctic Surve...

I've lived in Prague all my life, so I am a true Pražák. I grew up in a 16th century house in the medieval quarter of Mala Strana, where palaces and townhouses slope down from Prague Castle toward the Vltava River. As a child, I played in the orchards and chestnut gardens of Petrin Hill, dawdled up the cobblestoned streets to my first school just under the Castle, and sipped the head off beer I fetched in a ceramic jug for my father in one of many dingy pubs in the area. I discovered a taste for public affairs and news during the watershed 1989 Velvet Revolution that ended communist rule and I was hired by Reuters as a junior reporter in 1995. I have since covered the Czech Republic's path from post-communist reforms to NATO and the EU. As chief correspondent for the Czech Republic ...
