I guess that’s good. A melting North Pole won’t have a massive impact on sea levels. A melting South Pole would be huge. All that ice is sitting on land, not pressing down on a sea. Perhaps the frozen land under the ice keeps it cooler than floating on sea water.

In all seriousness, we should be grateful we live in the Modern Warm Period. People in at least the past 2 warm periods (Medieval Warm Period and Roman Warm Period) knew it was a good time to be alive, at least climate science-wise.

What's not to like about higher crop yields, easier to predict precipitation rates, and less deaths by plague? We should all be glad we're not living in one of the cooling periods (especially the most recent one).
