Well, I did find a mistake in my back of the envelope calculation, squaring instead of cubing ft/mile when converting cubic miles to cubic feet. I can’t find references for your glacier volume, but I concede my estimate assuming complete melting of all glaciers to be off. That was of course not realistic to assume 100% melt off. But my half inch estimate is also a low ball.
Big numbers get messy.
Yeah, big numbers are messy. A lefty friend sent me an article about the so-called doomsday glacier in Antartica. I’ll try to find it.
I often tweak this individual saying things like I actually favor warming weather trends. He believes any warming is due to man’s activities and will have devastating consequences, citing things like this glacier. I know it’s all bullish!t.
If my arithmetic is right, that ice cube is over 47 time the volume of Lake Michigan. No way is that thing simply going to get up and move. Good luck changing a dug-in lib’s mind though.
