Antarctica To Lift Seas By Metres Per Degree Of Warming, Study Finds
Raising Earth's average surface temperature another degree Celsius will lock in 2.5 metres of sea level rise from Antarctica alone and an extra three degrees see the frozen continent lift oceans 6.5 metres, scientists warned Wednesday.

Climate Change Could Render Many Of Earth's Ecosystems Unrecognisable
After the end of the last ice age, as sea levels rose, glaciers receded and global average temperatures soared as much as 7 degrees Celsius, the Earth's ecosystems were utterly transformed.

Climate Change May Lead to Substantial Rise in Sea Level
A jump in global average temperatures of 1.5 degrees Celsius to 2 degrees Celsius will see the collapse of Antarctic ice shelves and lead to hundreds and even thousands of years of sea level rise, a new research has warned.
