-The meltings of glaciers have a 20% contribution to the rising of the sea 
-Greenland's ice sheet has contributed with percentage of 25%
-The Antarctic ice sheet has a contribution of 11%
-Our land water storage has a contribution of 10%
-The ocean thermal expansion has a contribution of 30%

What is the solution to climate change?
Some solutions could be-
-Exterminating the burnings of fossil fuels
-Irrigation demands
-Fertiliser use
-Size of land available for food crops
-Cost of food for human consumption
-Pesticide use
-Deforestation required to make space for crops
