Sea level if all ice would melt - (by christopherbretz.ca)

He says it would take 5000+ years in a worst-case scenario (+8°C above the 1970 level)

EDIT:

  1. I did not post all of the parts of the world. More Maps are on the Website.
  2. Apparently a lot of you guys really prefer less of Florida
  3. It's highly speculative and approximated
  4. Eire Lake is missing due to taking the "easier path" when the sea level rises and create a new outflow, which leaves out one of them
  5. Gulf of Bothnia and Canada might be wrong in this depicted simplified model since it should rise due to Post-glacial rebound
  6. Weird that I have to write this... but the sea-level rise is due to solid-water (ice, snow) melting ABOVE the water level. So any smartass writing "ice cubes in a drink do not increase water levels" might think twice before they approach so blatantly
