In Antarctica, most ice chunks are at rest on solid ground.

So, yeah, it's like adding ice cubes to a glass of water.




And the big problem is, this could be a much faster process, than the melting itself. So we might face a considerable raise of the sea levels in very short times.


Right, if very large chunks start sliding downhill.
