Put an ice cube in a glass of water and mark the level of the water with a Sharpie.
Wait for the ice cube to melt.
After the ice cube melts, not that the water level is still at the Sharpie mark.
WHAT WE LEARNED: Floating ice does not raise sea level when it melts.
That’s why they’re whinging about Greenland and other land-based ice sheets.
Based on the article a few weeks ago about all the artifacts being discovered as glaciers in Norway receded, at this rate we might see ice coverage dwindle back to where it was before humanity really got going.
Oh, wait...
So wouldn’t that imply that increased human activity *increased* ice sheet coverage, and maybe all of our “climate change” efforts are actually the culprit behind all those shrinking glaciers?
The claim is that continental and valley glaciers will melt and spread land locked ice to the ocean as liquid water...
Not that I agree, but that is the argument.
Your example of the melting icecubes is totally racist!
That’s not fair, our models aren’t prepared for real scientific facts.
