Antarctica is melting, adding to the inexorable rise in global sea levels, endangering millions of lives and whole economies, leading scientists said on Monday.

This is a lie. Don't let them confuse you.

The level of water can not be affected by the melting of icebergs.

Run off from land could raise water levels, but not from icebergs.

claudiustg, the ice cube analogy is perfect logic!

It can be if the icebergs are breaking off from glaciers that are moving ice from land to the sea.

" Run off from land could raise water levels, but not from icebergs."

90% of the world's ice is on land.
