The U.S. has caused more global warming than any other country. Here’s how the Earth will get its revenge.
Last year, we learned what is probably the worst global warming news yet — that we may have irrevocably destabilized the massive ice sheet of West Antarctica, which contains the equivalent of nearly 11 feet of sea level rise. The rate of West Antarctic ice loss has been ominously increasing, and there are fears that if too much goes, the slow and long-term process of ice sheet disintegration could accelerate.
Humans have a hard time conceiving of the incredible scale of an ice sheet, so the consequences of such a change can be lost upon us. But in a new paper in the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers — Forensic Engineering, researchers Ted Scambos of the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colo., and John Abraham of the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minn. – summarize what we now know about West Antarctica. That includes a finding that may serve as a wake-up call for Americans in particular.

Do you have a PhD also?
No, but I play one on the internet ;)
This sentence caught my eye, so I looked it up...
Seems the premise is actually correct, but the word "dramatic" is highly inaccurate, more like a slight variation in gravity...
OK!! Everybody pay attention!
Lesson for today:
1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.
2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.
3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.
4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.
5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.
Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
Oh No!!!!!!!
We need to get you a fat gubmint grant for that!
I suffer from being burdened with too much intellectual honesty for that.

Global Warming on Free Republic
I thought, ‘Messiah 0bama’ was going to LOWER sea levels?
These people must be ready to slash their wrists every d@mn day, LOL!
And...GOOD! Useful idiots.
Well, I live at 1000’ and look out at the Straight of Juan de Fuca. Rising seas can only improve my already fantastic view. ;>)
Nope. I am buying a very fast sports car so that I don’t have to run.
Thanks!
Im hoping New Mexico becomes the next California and my property value goes up
That is a beautiful car and it’s on my list of considerations, however, I am leaning toward a Red or White 2015 Porsche Boxster GTS. Much of the decision depends on how difficult it is to sell my boat and my Harley.
If we are not careful and pay taxes to Al Gore, Guam may capsize.
