  • This ice sheet break up will eventually rise sea level by over 0.15 mm, by melt-water volume. If this happens every year, that gives over 7 cm in 50 years, just from isolated ice shelves! Adding to that caps slowing cycles and glaciers retreating around the world, we are looking at up to 30 cm in 50 years minimum! With a maximum by factoring in acceleration of up to 90-120 cm... average around 65 cm.
