Interesting graphs. I don’t really have Artic or ice cover data, but an impressive figure of greenland landmasses that are rising because of ice melting:

As a relative laymen, I find the top graphic the most visually arresting and immeditately informative. Not sure who the book’s aimed at, but if for the enthusiast / general public, just seeing an x / y axis can be a turn off!
