The Briksdal glacier in Norway is growing by over seven inches a day. The glacier at the top of Canada's highest mountain, Mount Logan, has continued to grow since 1992. In fact, the official height was determined to be seven meters higher than last measure. Mike Schmidt of the Geological Survey of Canada says this is mostly due to snow and ice accumulation. Silvretta Glacier in Switzerland and the Greenland Glacier is advancing over 7 miles per year. In February of 2008 it was reported that there was a third more ice than usual in Antarctica and that the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration showed that the 3.5 million square miles of ice cover that the earth had lost from January of 2007 to October of that year had been returned to normal levels.
