New science upsets calculations on sea level rise, climate change: ‘Ice sheet melt massively overestimated, satellites show’
'The possible acceleration in ice losses is barely perceptible: it may not really be happening at all...At current melt rates, Greenland ice sheet would take about 13,000 years to melt completely, which would result in a global sea-level rise of more than 21 feet (6.5 meters). Put another way, in that scenario we would be looking at 5cm of sea level rise from Greenland by the year 2130: a paltry amount'
