I like how they freak out when any ice bergs break off the antarctic ice shelves, but all that ice has always been in the sea which means the net total sea rise is near ZERO anyways if it all melted, we only need to worry about ice in the interior starts melting.

Oh, that's happening, in the Antarctic.

It's being caused by heat coming up from below.

This earth-generated heat is, of course, America's fault, even though we're about 8000 miles away from the South Pole.

More than previously ice is apparently flowing iin the glaciers to the edge and breaking off as floes and bergs because more ice is forming in the middle of the landmass forcing the glaciers to move more voluminously.

“we only need to worry about ice in the interior starts melting.”

The interior is gaining ice mass not losing (Zwalle 2016).

And therefore the seas are NOT rising nearly as fast as all papers previously to Zwalle’s, predicted.
