Another question is are the numbers are correct?

21,000 to 3,000 will make a difference

The surface area of the ice to be melted makes a difference

6.7 should be closer to 8 or 9

4 inches in the last 30 years is much greater than 8 inches in the last century

The surface are of the oceans matter. The volume of water to raise the sea level 4 inches in the last 30 years would have raised them how much if the depth was 100 ft less?
