Headline from Casper Star-Tribune

Researchers said the total sea-level rise from ice losses may not sound like a huge number, but it puts 6 to 9 million people at risk of flooding and erosion.

    About 12.5 trillion tons (11.3 trillion metric tons) of ice from glaciers in Greenland and Antarctica have melted since 1979, which is enough frozen water to stack ice 5 feet (1.5 meters) deep across the continental United States, according to a major scientific report.

    Richmond Times-Dispatch's feed description

    New research based on satellite data going back to the 1970s has documented major polar ice losses in Greenland and Antarctica — home to Earth's two great ice sheets — that have contributed to rising global sea levels.
