Whats the word??

Whats the word that describes the event where because something is happening in the first place it is making it worse.

For example: Greenlands glaciers are melting, this is releasing methane which is making even more ice melt.
WHATS THE WORD????
Any help??

i know what word you're trying to think of, but i can't remember it either.

the closest i've got to it is "shitty."

Main Entry: vicious circle
Part of Speech: noun
Definition: endless loop
Synonyms: Catch-22, causal nexus, chain of circumstances, chain reaction, circularity, concatenation of events, domino effect, eternal return, impasse, vicious cycle

Think I'll go with one of them, cause and effect sounds good. I thought there was one particular word to describe it though. Thanks for all your help though

what's the word that means like a metaphorical "crossroads" of sorts?

i always want to say paradox but that isn't right.

like, where two totally different disciplines come to the same conclusion by different methods. this has been bugging me for months.

I am not sure that these 2 things are the same.
but you're right in that paradox does not describe either of them.
