Antarctica has been ice-covered for at least 30 million years. The ice sheet holds over 26 million gigatonnes of water (a gigatonne is a billion metric tons). If it were to melt completely, sea levels would rise 60 metres. Such a change is many millennia in the future, if it happens at all, although climate alarmists will always claim that such a response is just around the corner because of (imaginary) global warming.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Modest ice loss is normal in Antarctica<\/strong>. &nbsp;Each year in summer, more than 2,000 gigatonnes of ice is discharged in the form of melt and icebergs, while&nbsp;<strong>snowfall additions keep the ice mass in equilibrium.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So it is a familiar story.

They seem not to realize they debase their own field of study by making exaggerated claims and by \u201cjumping the shark.\u201d<br>Meanwhile real scientists are doing the heavy lifting and showing restraint and wisdom about the limitations of their knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"603\" height=\"441\" data-attachment-id=\"413602\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?attachment_id=413602\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-294.png?fit=603%2C441&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"603,441\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"image\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-294.png?fit=603%2C441&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-294.png?resize=603%2C441&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A cartoon depicting a news anchor discussing glaciers, highlighting that while the glacier in Greenland is receding, a glacier depicted in a driveway is advancing.\" class=\"wp-image-413602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-294.png?w=603&amp;ssl=1 603w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/image-294.png?resize=300%2C219&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 603px) 100vw, 603px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Resources:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-science-matters wp-block-embed-science-matters\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"mPXBMhyadh\"><a href=\"https:\/\/rclutz.com\/2024\/06\/16\/redressing-antarctic-glacier-porn\/\">Redressing Antarctic Glacier&nbsp;Porn<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute;
