Tow it to California and use it for water to end the drought.

“That chunk of ice is already floating in the ocean.
Do a test fill a glass half full with water and put an ice cube in it. mark the level. once the ice melts check the level again. It will not change.”

Oh, stop making sense!

What, you mean Obama is NOT selling the mansion on Martha’s Vineyard? It will be flooded in ten years. What’s next, we will learn is he is not driving a Nissan Leaf?

From the second article listed above.......

West Antarctica is also hemorrhaging ice due to climate change, and recent studies have suggested there is no way to reverse the retreat of West Antarctic glaciers. However, the timing of this retreat is still in question, Schroeder said β€” it could take hundreds of years, or thousands. It’s important to understand which, given that meltwater from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet contributes directly to sea level rise.

Hundreds or thousands of years away with no way to stop it, but lets go back to driving a horse and buggy. What morons

Remember the many pictures of sad polar bears on jagged ice floes?

Rush had to remind the school children and adults that the bears were not trapped and doomed-——they swim all the time that’s how they catch fish to eat or move to new places to seek mates.

They don’t need a Navy helicopter to transport them off the ice.

Hey I won’t have to drive as far to the beach. All those mullion dollar beach front homes will make great fish habitats. Means more fish to eat.

We know that there are volcanoes below these ice sheets...and you can find plenty of evidence. Yet some scientists insist that the gases in the atmosphere are melting the sheets. The gases are coming from the ocean....not man made. Get it!!

Right, which is why Obama and Kerry have bought mansions right on the water.

Doomsday Glacier! Scared me, I thought Dayton was about to be buried again. After all, it’s only been 15,000 years since the last time. Funny they don’t concern themselves about a glacier receding from Dayton to Northern Canada before man burned the first lump of coal but a little ice melt now is Doomsday.

Obama, Biden, Gore and rumored Pelosi have all bought beach front properties.

I watched an old movie THAT MAN FROM RIO in which there is a great shot of the Rio beaches, roads, and hotels, in 1964.
Compare it to a web cam of the same area today and you will see no change in the ocean, except the usual tides.

I'm 40 miles inland and 500 feet above (present) sea level.

I'm worried about the Marxists in Washington, not the glaciers and the beach.

if this glacier isn’t being held up by land, then “breaking loose” won’t raise the sea level single millimeter ... has anyone here ever seen a full glass with ice cubes sticking up overflowing when the cubes melted? no? that’s because the submerged ice is less dense than the water, which is why ice floats, and the part ABOVE the water will exactly finish filling the underwater space the ice occupies under the water when the entire ice cube melts ...
