That is mostly true. (there are small increases in volume as the entire glass of water warms).
But, the increase in sea level from ice melting would be from ice that is over land, not on the oceans.
Plenty of ice over Greenland and Antarctica to raise sea levels *if* it melted.
It would take quite a while to melt,and we would adapt.
I understand about land Ice. but the whole thing is a giant hoax. I saw where NOAA is lying again and left out the cold data for the northeast this winter. Such frauds. It should be prosecuted as fraud of taxpayer money.
“Plenty of ice over Greenland and Antarctica to raise sea levels *if* it melted.”
Greenland is essentially an inlandsis, it’s as if all its ice is in a cup. *If” melted, the ice would create a big lake instead of a rising sea.
BTW, Greenland and Antartica are **gaining** mass, meaning they get too much snow and don’t shed enough icebergs.
And, does this take into account the amount of water that is removed via the evaporation due to the heating from the sun?
Nope.
I’m sure that if all the ice on land melted, the water levels would raise, somewhat, across the globe. However, I do not believe that will happen (until the sun goes supernova, and we’re gonna fry anyway), nor do I believe that mankind has any affect on this. If we did, how did we go from dinosaurs and the tropical climate around the world to an ice age, and then back to a more tropical climate?
