World experts were horrified after the United States recognized the existence of a secret, now abandoned base located in the glaciers of Greenland. Actually, America had to make this confession: soon Camp Century will show its steel head from under the glacier due to global warming.
Toxic waste is already seeping from the base into the sea. The Camp Century base will become the largest nuclear repository in the world if the American government fails to prevent further contamination.
Camp Century entered service in 1959. 200 people served a 3-kilometer network of tunnels hidden deep in the glacier. However, even the Danish government was not privy to America's goal: the Ice Worm project was created to fire nuclear missiles at the Soviet Union through ice tunnels.
The Iceworm project was abandoned due to the instability of the ice, and then Camp Century underwent deep conservation. Apparently, the military did not waste energy and left about 9,200 tons of chemical waste to rot in their precarious shelter.
According to the latest findings (a study published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters), global warming will lead to the complete destruction of the base in the next 25 years. And tons of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs, the strongest carcinogen) will be dumped into the surrounding ocean.
