Okay people, come down out there, we will not drown if the ice melts in the oceans. Fill a glass up with ice and water to the brim and make sure the ice sticks above the top. Wait for ice to melt and guess what you have? A full glass of water that has not changed level. Hmmmm.
Now if all the ice melts on land we have a different story but when a lib says the seas will rise due to Global Warming just show them this trick and tell them to STFU.
Now if all the ice melts on land we have a different storyI am a skeptic too (it will never all melt, not even close) but the Antarctic has as much area as the USA and averages over 6,000 feet thick, above sea level.
