dynamics of glaciers and ice melting all over the planet?

1. Global warming raises temperatures
2. ice starts to melt even at the north pole like in the last month (40 degrees Fahrenheit was reached)
3. when ice melts it turns the ocean blue which then traps even more heat in the ocean
4. Clouds then trap heat and increase the rate of melt in places like Greenland on the ice sheet
5. melting permafrost liberates Methane which is one of the worst Greenhouse gases
6. The Methane goes up into the upper atmosphere and prevents heat from escaping from the atmosphere into space
7. the cycle continues repeating itself
8 Ice melts in both ocean and permafrost so this then warms both land and sea and this increases the speed of melt of both ice and permafrost worldwide.
9. Then oceans rise (I have observed how much the ocean has risen in Hawaii on various islands) So, as a result of rising oceans at high tide it is killing more and more plants that were far from the ocean before 10 or 20 years ago. (I lived there in 1989 and 1974). And I have visited once every 5 years or once a year the last few years.
