As the glaciers and icecaps melt they will make the oceans rise and it's all because of global warming.

Sea ice is in the water already so its melting will not affect sea levels.

Global warming has been proven to be directly linked with sea level rising through?

Global warming is causing the Earth's temperature to rise, leading to ice caps and glaciers melting. This meltwater contributes to the rise in sea levels, posing a threat to coastal communities worldwide. Continued global warming will exacerbate this trend, resulting in further sea level rise.

Why is the sea level not dropping?

Glaciers and ice caps are melting and adding water. The oceans are also warming, and warm water expands, taking up more space than cooler water. So the sea levels are not only not dropping, they are rising.

Why would ice glaciers but not melting ice shelves cause a rise in the sea level?

Ice glaciers contribute to sea level rise because they are land-based ice that, when melted, adds water to the ocean. In contrast, melting ice shelves, which float on the ocean, do not directly raise sea levels since they are already displacing water. The melting of ice shelves can indirectly influence sea level rise by allowing glaciers to flow more rapidly into the ocean, but their direct contribution to sea level change is negligible compared to that of land glaciers.


How do melting glaciers affect a region?

Melting glaciers can be a danger to society. The melting of glaciers means that the sea level would rise. This could put some current sea-level cities underwater, causing damages and forcing people to find higher ground.
