Climateers keep trumpeting alarms that glaciers and ice sheets are melting, thus threatening land-based life with rising seas and supporting their dubious claims that Earth faces catastrophic global warming. 

Life on Earth cannot be extinguished by a sun-warmed atmosphere or retreating ice – sea levels merely rise steadily as land-based ice melts, animals and plants migrate, and the slowly warming seas expel carbon dioxide.  This allows the biosphere to thrive with more ice-free land in a benign, warmer, wetter, carbon-rich world. 

 The threats we should fear are the periodic violent eras of volcanism and the life-killing ice ages, many of which start with massive snow/hail storms, such as the one that suddenly extinguished the mammoths.  This is why many ancient peoples celebrated the warmth of spring and worshiped the Sun God.
