In 400 years of measuring global temperatures, the temperature has only increased 3/4 of one Degree.
Ice expands when it freezes, that’s why ice floats above the water’s surface, and contracts when it melts. Thus, any floating ice (like the entire North Pole) when it melts, will not add any volume to the oceans Therefore only land-based ice can add to the volume of water in the oceans, not ice that is already in the ocean.
The majority of land based ice is on the continent of Antarctica, where the average year around temperature is more than 60 degrees below zero. The average temperature would have to rise by more than 60 degrees to melt the Antarctic ice cap. Hardly something we need to worry about in the near future.
Global warming, & cooling, has been documented by scientists over millions of years. In general it runs in 10,000 year cycles. You are basing your "global warming" evidence on a mere few hundred years.
So why do you still believe?
