As I said Bob, you don't seem capable of processing information.

Let us take your question about why Maimi is not under water.

<<Now Charles. if 80% of the ice volume was gone - why is not Miami under water? You need to answer that>>.

You should know Bob, and I am very surprised you don't, that ice that melts on top of water does not raise the sea level.

But it does allow for the absorption of massive amounts of heat that when released in winter moves the jet stream around.

So the melting of the arctic ice pack will have no effect, but the melting of Greenland and Antarctica will.

Only ice that melts on land raises sea levels.

These are the types of mistakes you make constantly because you do not study or respect science.
