## New Study Reveals Glacier Melting
Scientists found Thwaites Glacier near melting point in Antarctica.
## Glacier Collapse History
Kaolinite clay deposits dropped to near zero during past warming periods.
## Ice Sheet Melting Cause
Deep warm-water currents melted ice sheet during past warming periods.
## Current Warming Accelerates Risk
Global warming brings us closer to melting point than any past period.
## Sea Level Impact
Thwaites Glacier collapse would raise UK sea levels by 65cm.
## UK Vulnerability
Coastal areas between Lancaster and Liverpool at risk from sea level rise.
## Key takeaway

Thwaites Glacier melting could raise UK sea levels by 65cm, threatening coastal areas.
