“We now have direct evidence that not only was the ice gone, but that plants and insects were living there,”...Near‑complete melting of Greenland’s ice over the next centuries to a few millennia would lead to some 23 feet of sea‑level rise.

I think that's kind of a tongue in cheek joke.

Regular people don't respect the actual issue at hand(like yourself a little) trying to portray it as relevant or something they can understand is important for scientists to do.

Unfortunately science and the truth are worthless if morons don't understand them.
