[The Truth Will Make You Free]

Covering, what, exactly? Land or water? Glaciers melting over water would NOT contribute to rising seas but actually to the lowering of the seas by 10% of the glacier size.

Good point. I'm by no means a glacier expert, but simply did a little research and some math to see if the 10 foot claim was reasonable, which it isn't. There's a link to source in the original post. I assumed that this was ice over land, but that's a good point that any ice melting over water would actually lower sea levels.

I did a quick study and found that the sea levels could rise 24 feet, but only if all land ice measurements were accurate and if all the ice melted. Since most ice is in areas below -40°, there is no way the Earth would warm such that that ice would melt (not even by liberal nonsense claims), I ain’t worried.

I'm no math expert; but simple algebra showed me it is!

Don’t forget; with more water in oceans; the tides will be...

1. Increased.
2. Decreased.
3. Stay the same.

Don't forget; with more water in oceans;there will be a larger Earth radius; causing the day to lengthen.
