Really? "Greenland's melting glaciers may someday flood your city" isn't hysterical?

But then they bury the lead to promote that hysteria. "If the ice sheet covering Greenland was to melt completely — a process scientists believe could take several hundred years at the current rate" By their own graphic, surface area melt is less now than in 1995. "In 2017, after two decades of decline, less summer thawing and heavy snowfall spurred by low pressure systems meant Greenland didn’t lose as much ice as in recent years."
