The most recent survey shows that the Greenland ice sheet has been shedding one tonne of ice – every minute. 525,000 metric tonnes every year. That’s a massive amount of fresh water that pours into the salt water, the seas around Greenland.
Sea level rise is a real menace. Greenland is one source, a major to be sure, but there are many others. This is a real worry in some places, including any place that has a sea coast. You know where they don’t much care about sea level rise? Alberta is one. No skin off their backsides. Sea level rise only brings “tidewater” that much closer to Athabasca. Hey, what’s not to like?
