It contains enough ice to raise the global sea level by at least 11 feet (3.4 meters),

What they don't tell you is that this is being offset by corresponding increases ice on the other pole.

Raise the sea level by 11 feet??? Preposterous! Do these clowns have any idea how large the sea area is, and how to do simple arithmetic?

Raise the entire global sea level by 11 feet!?

Someone needs to check their geometry. All the salt waters on the entire planet are connected openly. The volume of water contained in ALL the ice in both the Arctic and Antarctic, atop water and land, does not have the volume of water needed to increase the entire interconnected salt water oceans by more than a foot. Think every shoreline where there is saltwater in the entire world.

Try running those total volume numbers again chicken little.
