Antarctica, a game changer for sea level rise

How is Antarctica going to react to global warming?Right now, glaciers in the mountains and the Greenland and Antarctica ice sheets are all contributing roughly equally to sea level rise through melting, but in the near future, once Antarctica passes a tipping point, this might change completely, ma...
