“With the current rate of greenhouse gas emissions, the projections are that the global average temperature will be 8 degrees warmer than present by 2100,” says lead researcher Jeremy L. Weiss, a senior research specialist in the University of Arizona’s department of geosciences.
“That amount of warming will likely lock us into at least 4 to 6 meters of sea-level rise in subsequent centuries, because parts of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets will slowly melt away like a block of ice on the sidewalk in the summertime,” Weiss says.
One minor problem. According to NASA, sea level has been falling or steady around the US for the last 20 years. Who would expect a senior research specialist to actually do some research?

My projection is that we will have to live with this kind of drivel until funding gets cut off. Temperature is -50 degrees on both ice sheets now.
