The Antarctic or South pole its above water mass is much,much larger than the Arctic, and it has a far denser ice pack with less land mass to compensate.
Look at a map and try and imagine a third of the Antarctic as land and the rest at least three times lager.As you know with ice only a third is visible above the water line.
Now that's a lot of melted water that has to go somewhere!

South Pole (strictly speaking the south pole won't melt). North Pole or artic ice is floating over the ocean, so melting it won't produce any change in sea level. On the other hand antarctic ice is over land, so the melting of that ice will effectively go into rising the sea level.

i do no longer think of the fabric could wade via, because of the fact gravity could take it down in the direction of the middle of the Earth (and in the direction of the south pole), yet because it approached the middle it may decelerate and in all threat come to a relax on the middle of the Earth the place gravity could be exerting its tension the two in all guidelines.

The North pole... If it melts it will rain down to us since we are underneath it.

if either pole were to malfunction there would be a severe tilting of the earth and it would spin uncontrollably like a top and gravity as we know it would cease to funtion properly thereby creating an atmosphere like the moon.
