May I question, if Al Gore is so concerned with our safety, why isn’t he wanting people to move to higher ground. Maybe the answer is that he really isn’t sure the ocean will rise, especially since he bought a beach front home.
I thought Tipper got the beach house. Folks should do as they have for thousands of years. Adapt to the (possibly) changing conditions. Should we not allow anyone else to move to low lying areas? Maybe a new rule that no new construction will be allowed below 40 feet of elevation from where the current ocean levels are? While working in the yard the other day an older gentleman was walking by and we struck up a conversation. (He was visiting from Romania) We told him that we had moved from Florida and he advised us that we had done a smart thing since in 20 years, Florida would be under water. Since my Romanian isn’t that good and his English wasn’t that good I didn’t try to explain the reality of it too him. Just an example of the lie being spread and accepted.
