Pinto, fair suck on the sauce bottle cobber, we know science isn't zipperlip's strong suite.
there are areas near Greenland where the voluminous outpouring of meltwater from the ice sheet is said by researchers to be negatively impacting AMOC but elsewhere this isn't the main concern.
the reduction in sea ice area means a loss in reflectivity of the sun's energy, a greater amount of which is then absorbed by and warms the ocean.
yip yap yopo, another poster who likes to parade his own pseudoscientific genius, also mentioned this albedo effect with less solar energy being reflected by reduced cloud cover and this contributing to global warming.
scientists readily acknowledge this, adding that it has only a minor impact on global warming.
scientists always say the main influence on global warming is the increase in greenhouse gases in the air through the burning of fossil fuels.
the anonymous yip yap yopo can never say this because deniers of anthropogenic global warming have only one role - to deny, which he has been doing for 15,671 dreary posts steeped in denier bs.

well, science certainly isn't my strong suit either ---------- but, I didn't think it took Einstein to understand that when there's a block of ice in the swimming pool -------- the level is what the level is - no matter if the ice is solid or when it melts ---------- the level is what the level is
perhaps I'm wrong - I'll give Sherlock a buzz and check
