Now I'm wondering what the minimum amount of water required to sustain the current levels of life on earth.
I think that would be the current amount of water. Any water loss (or water gain for that matter) is going to cause massive problems worldwide.
I'm kinda interested in what Mars would look like with all that water. Small northern ocean, or small southern continent?
That idea was actually explored in Drain the Oceans: Part II, on the xkcd website. I hope Randall makes a video version of that as well.
Love it.
