I filled a glass of ice water and forgot about it. When the ice melted it flooded my office. zzzzzzz
270 Gt/yr for the last 20 years and accelerating at 48Gt/yr/decade. Enough meltwater each year to cover the island of Ireland 3 meters deep.
Climate change: World's glaciers melting at a faster pace
The meltwater produced now accounts for about a fifth of global sea-level rise.

How much do we need to raise taxes by to fix this?
We need to eliminate GHG emissions. What that costs depends a great deal on you and I. I strenuously suspect that my way of doing it would cost a fraction of the manner you would end up doing it.

Because you will do nothing until you are forced by the consequences of warming.
I don't give a damn who they are or what their title is, they're all capable of lying to further their agenda.The world's most renowned climate scientist...
Some of the world's best climate scientists. These are the authors of "The Physical Science Basis" of the IPCC's 5th Assessment Report; Working Group I. I'd bet a dollar to a donut you've never heard of any of them.

Not many. But several hundred million would like to use them as reservoirs for drinking water and and irrigation. And another several hundred million would like them to stay where they are rather than pushing the ocean into their front doors.Good! Who wants to live on a glacier?
