That article mentions the 1.2km thick ice sheet. Is it that thick for the whole 1.75 million square km that I based my calculations on? Answer = No.

Also in that article it mentions that global warming increases precipitation which builds up the thickness of the shelf in the middle.

Got to remember that the rest of the planet will get increased precipitation also. That means water will get taken from the sea and dumped on the land, replenishing water tables that have been drained by human population growth.

Also a vast amount of water will simply stay in the atmosphere, which can absorb more air before saturation at higher temperatures.

I am finding this 5 - 7 metres of sea level rise very difficult to believe.
