Bro....it's science. Water does expand when frozen lol. That's why soda and beer explode in the freezer

Duh! When the trillions of tons of polar ice and snow now covering LAND melts into the oceans, sea levels will rise.

20,000 years ago 15,000 feet of ice sat atop what is now New York City.

Are you saying it all melted because cavemen were driving Hummers?

Well...no. 93% of the polar ice caps are below sea level. Water expands 9% when frozen. That 9% will negate 7% leaving the seas 2% "lower".

I'm talking about the polar land masses. Are you saying that when Antarctica's 5.4 million square miles of ice and snow melts, the sea level will be 2% lower?

Yes. This is fact.

No, most of Antartica's frozen water is ON land. Same for Greenland and other land masses going up north. That's a bit different than water freezing atop water.

In fact, sea levels should have been noticably HIGHER since the end of the last ice age, with much of Floida under water and most of Greenland ice free, for example. Scientists can't explain why it isn't. We've been WARMER than we have been.

That land is below sea level. I'm still right lol

Wrong again! Antarctica has mountains over 14,000 feet high.

Only 45% is. 55% ain't.

Ahh....but there is no land under the Arctic. It's 100% ice. Ergo....if the polar caps melt(as stated in the meme, all polar caps) sea levels would fall bc the overwhelming majority of the artic is under water. You've seen ice in a cup. I'm still winning

Ant-artic-a is a continent round the Southern Pole. It is not the North Pole.
And no.

Wait, what? Winning what? I'm aguing your argument for you. I'm trying to help you here.
You're screwing your narrative for the sake of a bogus point - and a ridiculous one at that.

I googled "What countries have polar ice caps"? Answer: the majority of Greenland, a good portion of northern Canada and some of Siberia and Scandinavia are included in the Arctic Polar Cap. So you're wrong again - there is land under the Arctic Polar Cap.

Here's your consolation prize.

Was supposed to post this and whatever else that day, but my tablet decided to go jump tabs and I only bumped into it now.

Here's another.
Basically, everything that matters in Florida now should be underwater. Scientists can't explain why it's COOLER than it have been in previous interglacials.

Lol. All they did was change the color in the pic. Like in these 2 pics 5 years apart.

I guess you never took any elementary science classes… take a glass, fill it with ice, top it off with water, and wait.
When the ice has melted, you will find that the water level is the same.

Yep , I just read it. It says water expands when it's frozen
