Comment on Study Shows Glaciers Have Lost '3 Olympic Swimming Pools Per Second' Since 2000

I’ve never seen an Olympic swimming pool. And even if I had, I wouldn’t have a sense for its volume unless it was empty. Preferred units for water volumes are million acre feet or cubic kilometers annually. Or cubic feet per second or cubic meters per second. Or if you really want to relate to the layperson, I also accept cubic kegs per fortnight.
