I'm curious... All the ice man makes... All the ice in all the frigerators across the planet... All the ice in all the fast food restaurant... All the ice in the hotels and ice rinks and other places where there's ice. Are we really losing ice? I could only assume but all the ice we talked about losing we have stored in many different places. LOL... I have one cubic feet of ice in my refrigerator... Let's say times that one or two billion people. That would be 2 billion cubic feet of ice. Just imagine how many glaciers man makes that comes and goes yearly in his refrigerators and other devices.
