00:00Deep beneath Antarctica's frozen surface lies a fiery secret.
00:04Over 130 volcanoes, many sleeping under thick sheets of ice.
00:08But what happens when that ice starts to melt?
00:11Scientists warn that Earth's warming could wake these giants.
00:14In the last ice age, melting glaciers triggered a surge in volcanic eruptions.
00:19Now, with climate change accelerating, history might just repeat itself.
00:24As the ice thins, pressure lifts from the land.
00:27And just like popping a cork, trapped gases and magma could explode to the surface.
00:32The result? More eruptions. More ash. More heat.
00:36And that dark volcanic ash speeds up ice melting by absorbing sunlight.
00:40It's a dangerous feedback loop.
00:42Melting ice may cause eruptions.
00:44Eruptions may cause more melting.
00:46And that could push more ice into our oceans, raising sea levels even faster.
00:51It's still mostly speculation.
00:53But scientists are watching closely.
00:55Because in this race between fire and ice, the outcome could reshape our planet.
01:00What happens in this race between fire and fire and the sun, the ocean will be very open.
01:05You know the sun it is.
01:06And it's a great phenomenon.
01:07What have you seen in this race?
01:08What are you seen in this race?
01:09I know what are you seeing in this race?
01:10It's not the danger?
01:11I know in this race between fire and the threshold.
01:13And it's a great view that we're looking for.
01:14You know how to read the entire sea level.
01:16You know what it's, the type of energy would be really well.
01:17What are you seeing in this race?
01:18You know what's your favorite range of its nature?
01:19You know what's going to be.
01:20You know what it's going to be going for?
