What is going on? A satirical blog post by an anti-AGW commentator,
always the most reliable source of information, said some satirical
things, and other media ran with it as fact. (There was apparently a
misstatement about the Greenland ice by Atlas staff, since corrected.)
The original blog post:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/jamesdelingpole/100105854/times-atlas-to-print-new-world-map-without-tuvalu-maldives-manhattan-etc/
(which is pretty obvious satire if you actually think about what he's
saying)
and some commentary:

I personally thought to be the only truth to exist). It removed 15% of
Greenland ice, the islands of Tuvalu, Maldives, and some parts of
Bangladesh. To know more google "Times Comprehensive Atlas of the World"
and "emotional truth".
