Study: Greenland ice melt will raise sea levels by nearly a foot

Summary by Ground News

"Zombie ice" from the massive Greenland ice sheet will eventually raise global sea level by at least 10 inches (27 centimeters) on its own, according to a study released Monday. Zombie or doomed ice is ice that is still attached to thicker areas of ice, but is no longer getting fed by those larger glaciers. Greenland has more than 120 trillion tons of ice that can be thought of as zombie ice.
