In the next 200 years, the ice sheet model shows that melting at the present rate could contribute 19 to 63 inches to global sea level rise, said the team led by scientists at the Geophysical Institute at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. These numbers are at least 80 percent higher than previous estimates, which forecasted up to 35 inches of sea level rise from Greenland’s ice.
As far as I am aware, Greenland hasn't change much in its size has it?
How are they coming up with 80% more than previous estimates? Did the volume of ice change? Did they get something wrong in the previous estimates that they found?
These are MODELS... assumptions... suppositions.... It's just fun with numbers.
How can anyone look at the entire globe, and notice that the earth is 71% water... and then look at the size of Greenland and say the ice on that tiny spot will raise sea levels across the globe up to 5' higher? No way.
The animation was produced by the USGS National Geospatial Program. Lots of smart people work there. You don't think they did the math?
They did something...
It also stupid to highlight devastation in Florida, when the water from the ice melt would have to work its way through the whole Atlantic coast first. Why single out Florida?
If they lose the 29 electoral votes it will be because of the wide open borders not because of some ridiculous climate change nonsense. Of course the climate changes and it does so no matter what humans do.
South pole ice is melting due to geothermal heating and volcanic activity. That's science. So we're damn lucky there's actually global cooling going on to offset that and that ridiculous Florida computer simulation is extremely unlikely to happen.

Global cooling? What alternate universe do you live in? The warmest years globally have all occurred since 2005, with the top ten being 2016, 2020, 2019, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2014, 2010, 2013 and 2005

If you don't count the several millennia the earth was largely tropical.

mr djt wanted to make the National Flood Insurance pay for itself. Great Idea. But I don't think he thought it through with Mar-a-Lago, unless he grandfather's rates.

Also, you're just wrong. Stop lying again.
Not lying it's what science has measured. Yeah right, and before that the earth was a semi-molten ball of rock. Want that back too?
