FORBES: Man The Lifeboats! Global Warming Has Oceans Rising At Alarming Rate! (Or Maybe not)
Some politicians now even argue, conveniently, that the chief culprit in years to come will not be fishing fleets, but climate change: glaciers are melting, which is reducing the ocean's salinity, which in turn is starting to cause a drop in plankton, depriving fish of a key food.

The rapid melting of the Arctic sea ice, then, illuminates the difficulty of modelling the climate but not in a way that brings much comfort to those who hope that fears about the future climate might prove exaggerated.
Our scientists generally think that global warming will cause a melting of the icecaps and that will raise the water level and so on and so forth, but that might not be the worst thing that happens.
