The Antarctic ice sheet covers about 98% of the Antarctic continent and is the largest single mass of ice on Earth. It covers an area of almost 14 million square kilometres (5.4 million square miles) and contains 26.5 million cubic kilometres (6,400,000 cubic miles) of ice. That is, approximately 61 percent of all fresh water on the Earth is held in the Antarctic ice sheet, an amount equivalent to about 58 m of sea-level rise.
Hell, even the Greenland ice sheet is 2,850,000 cubic kilometres (684,000 cu mi), voluminous enough to cause a 7.5 meter rise in sea level if it melts.
People like you are exactly why climate change is an issue. Look shit up and do research before you speak.
