New paper finds potential sea level rise from Greenland is about 66% less than previously estimated

The Hockey Schtick
"A new paper published in Nature finds the upper limit to sea level rise by 2100 from the Greenland ice sheet is about 66% less than previously predicted. The paper follows another from last week demonstrating the upper limit of sea level rise by 2100 from the Antarctic ice sheet is about 70% less than IPCC predictions. These new papers demonstrate IPCC predictions of sea level rise from both Greenland and Antarctica have been greatly exaggerated. Furthermore, the new estimates of these upper limits may themselves be exaggerated, since they are based upon models with high sensitivity to CO2, which has also been debunked by several recent papers."
