As they melt there will be less and less drinking water available. I think it's something like 3/4 of the water in the Us comes from mountain ice packs. Same is true for much of the rest of the world. Guess what no more ice packs equals no more drinking water.
That's just one tiny little thing that it will affect.

Actually the drinking water comes from snow, not ice packs. During the years when we have little snowfall in the mountains are the years we suffer droughts. There are very little ice packs, as you call it in the Rocky Mountains.
But global warming is a fact, its funny that the ones that think different are Bush supporters.
