from the twisted side,,,,, :-),,,,, maybe some of that ice melting will fill
up some of the empty underground aquafers, and help resolve the water
shortage problem.

You're correct if all the water that was frozen was already in the ocean as
ice. The 10% of the icebergs that are above water would simply fill in for
the 90% that is below with no net gain.
I think the issue was always about the glaciers melting. This is water that's
not already part of the ocean and would eventually end up causing some
increase in sea levels. Enough to flood New York City - I don't think so.
Though I wouldn't be buying land in Louisiana or the Netherlands anytime soon.

contracts when melting. Is this somehow different in the ocean? If not,
then it is yet another scam being perpetrated on US taxpayers..........

Not quite true, Drew. The CO2 levels have been transitorily higher due to
specific incidents (volcanos, fires). CO2 levels are consistantly higher
now.
And David Fogarty as a source, well, he's good at spinning in the direction
he wants. If he has any credentials other than writing opinion pieces and
doing freelance editing, I fail to find them.
