It sounds promising, but we should model the flow carefully. Even small extractions can alter the ice’s micro‑climate over time. I’d sketch a series of scenarios, track the melt rate, and check for any downstream effects on the local ecosystem before we commit. If the numbers stay within safe limits, it could be a good way to keep our supplies steady without jeopardizing the glacier’s integrity.

I’ll pull the latest temperature and melt‑rate data and run a quick simulation. I’ll check the impact on the ice flow and the surrounding habitat. Once I’ve got the numbers, I’ll share them and we can see if the plan holds up. That should give us a clear picture before moving forward.
