Let’s see...
Surface area of earth ~ 200,000,000 sq. miles
Oceanic coverage ~ 140,000,000 sq. miles
If we go with the low end estimate, say six feet, that would be
3902976000000000 * 6 = 23417856000000000.00 cubic feet
=159090 cubic miles
=cubed root of 159090 = 55 miles in each direction not allowing for the 10% that would remain above water, so over 60 MILES in EACH direction, with NO other changes.

Isn’t most of the mass of a glacier/ice berg-thingy under the water? Hasn’t that mass displaced as much mass as it can, already?
I’m thinking I learned about this in science class (back when it was actually TAUGHT) watching an ice cube melt in a glass of water.
But, what do I know? I’m no LibTard, so I ain’t a-smart!

The loss of volume does not mean the ice is melting. It is a well known process called sublimation by which glacier ice goes directly to vapor, without turning first to water. Since Antarctica’s average temperature is well below freezing, even warming its temperature by an astounding 40 degrees wouldn’t make the temperature warm enough to melt ice.

um.... I doubt it.
The author needs to do a little elementary math.
The volume of the glacier is not equal to the volume of 2 meters of water across the oceans.
maybe 2 thousands of a MM

Siegert and the Grantham Institute are rabid hucksters promoting the globull warming, er “climate change” hoax. Nothing they say can be taken seriously.

I would assume they are accounting for all of the trapped oxygen in the ice in their calculations? I have been using an ice back for lower back pain that you add ice too. It looks like the kind you see in cartoons. Anyway, as the ice melts it releases a ton of trapped air and I have to loosen the top of the ice pack or it becomes like a balloon and it's hard to get the ice against my body. Thus, 4 or 5 times I will have to unscrew the top to let all the newfound air out it.
This was quite a surprise to me. So, I sure hope they are taking this into account, there is a ton of oxygen in the ice itself, more than you'd think.
