James Hansen and Ice Sheet Melt

July 3rd, 2007 by shrimppop

Here’s a YouTube of James Hansen, head of NASA’s Goddard Institute:

Elsewhere he states that the recent IPCC Report does not factor in the possibility of the South Greenland and West Antarctica ice sheets melting, which would raise sea levels as much as 15-35 meters over the course of several centuries. There is geologic data to back this projection which results in what Hansen calls “a different planet.”
