A sideshow to sea-level questions on policy-relevant time scales. (2100-ish
at best)..
You're talking geological scale here.
Tad Pfeffer's 2008 analysis of worst-case discharge rate still a keystone
to clear thinking on this.

Hi Andy‹Your agreement with the dismissive statement on Greenland seems
terribly short-sighted. Over the coming decade (if not already), we¹ll be
setting a course for Greenland that will lead to much higher sea level in
the future (and the contributions from Greenland and Antarctica will end up
is the relevant policy
horizon for avoiding that meter through mitigation.
