== Card #19 : Melting of Ice Sheets == | |||
=== Description === | |||
<section begin=Cardadult19Desc /> | |||
Continental glaciers (or ice sheets) are in Greenland and Antarctica.<br> | |||
If they melt completely, they will cause a rise in ocean levels of 7 meters for Greenland and 54 meters for Antarctica.<br> | |||
During the last ice age, ice sheets were so much larger that the sea level was 120 m lower than today. | |||
