Hi again, Mike. 👋

Let’s go over this for what’s now a third time. Maybe it will sink in.

The Greenland ice sheet contains about 2.9 million gigatons (Gt) of ice. 🧊

Using the conversion factor that 1 Gt = 1 billion tons, this means that the ice sheet has roughly 2.9 million billion tons of ice.

Oh yes, math is involved!!

Now, if the ice sheet is losing 30 million tons of ice per hour, that would work out to 720 million tons of ice lost per day and a net 262.8 billion tons per year. 🫠

Here’s the math, 🫳

-30 million tons × 24 hr. (1 day) × 365 days (1 year) = -262.8 billion tons / year

262.8 billion tons of ice lost per year?

Oh my, that sounds scary! 😱

That is, of course, until you realize that at the current rate, it would take more than 11,035 years for the entire Greenland ice sheet to melt.

🏔️ ➡️ ⛰️ = >10 millennia

Let’s do more math to confirm this.

2.9 million billion tons / (262.8 billion tons / year) ≈ 11,035 years.

Now, what would this mean for sea level rise (SLR)? 🌊

Well, according to NASA, for every 360 Gt (or 360 billion tons) of ice lost, the global average sea level rises by about 1 millimeter (mm).

🔗 https://t.co/PmUG8Xi5nm…

If 262.8 billion tons of ice is lost per year, that would mean sea level rises at a rate of 0.73 mm (~0.03 in) / year from loss of Greenland ice alone. 📏

Ignoring Antarctica, this would cause the global average sea level to rise about 1 ft. every ~417.5 years.

Now, the rate of ice loss could accelerate or decelerate depending on other factors (e.g., natural variability or positive / negative climate feedbacks), but it’s clear from these back of the envelope calculations that you are hyperventilating over nothing.

This is a very manageable problem.

So is your climate anxiety.

Just stop parroting WEF propaganda and go touch grass.

BREAKING: Donald Trump announces that he will ban taxes on overtime work if elected president to incentivize hard workers.

"I am also announcing that as part of our additional tax cuts, we will end all taxes on overtime."

Under the plan, anyone who works over 40 hours a week would not be taxed on the hours over 40 for any given week.

"The people who work overtime are among the hardest working citizens in our country and for too long, no one in Washington has been looking out for them."

"They're police officers, nurses, factory workers, construction workers, truck drivers and machine operators."

"It's time for the working man and woman to finally catch a break."

Breaking: @BroncoSportsFB has pulled out of @theARIZONABOWL due to too many players contracting covid. We are actively looking for a replacement. I suggest @WSUCougarFB does a poll of players whether they want to play in Az bowl or Sun Bowl.

Watch this video and ask yourself this question: why is the left obsessed with electric vehicles?

On average, you might get less emissions from EV’s, but they’re not all they’re hyped up to be. Here are the facts.

People now think they can just splash the word 'science' around like ketchup and it magically makes all of the nonsense they are chatting about valid and correct.
