Too bad you didn't cut and paste this to a group where it would be

another bullshit article;

"Removal of these
ice shelves, as shown by past ice-shelf recession and break-up,
accelerates the outflow, which adds to sea-level rise."

their assumption is more water down the stream, makes the sea level 
rise, bad assumption.
