The Worldwide Catastrophe Of Rising Seas Especially Imperils Pacific Paradises, UN Chief Says

Highlighting seas that are rising at an accelerating rate, especially in the far more vulnerable Pacific island nations, U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres issued yet another climate SOS to the world. This time he said those initials stand for “save our seas.”

The United Nations and the World Meteorological Organization Monday issued reports on worsening sea level rise, turbocharged by a warming Earth and melting ice sheets and glaciers. They highlight how the Southwestern Pacific is not only hurt by the rising oceans, but by other climate change effects of ocean acidification and marine heat waves.

Guterres toured Samoa and Tonga and made his climate plea from Tonga's capital on Tuesday at a meeting of the Pacific Islands Forum, whose member countries are among those most imperiled by climate change. Next month the United Nations General Assembly holds a special session to discuss rising seas.

“This is a crazy situation,” Guterres said. “Rising seas are a crisis entirely of humanity's making. A crisis that will soon swell to an almost unimaginable scale, with no lifeboat to take us back to safety.”

Wake me up when the sea levels rise to what we know them to have been during the past few warming periods.

Genesis 9:13 I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth. 14 It shall be, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the rainbow shall be seen in the cloud; 15 and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

Godless heathens worshiping the creation instead of the Creator. Following the Science! of fools as their god.

Guterres toured Samoa and Tonga...

Probably a clue as to whom he expects to pay for this. I guess Guam just floats a little higher.

Everything I ever needed to know about how The Authorities really feel about climate change, is embodied in Obama's home on Martha's Vineyard.

I don't know who these people are, but they sure don't seem too worried about rising ocean levels.

The “Climate Discussion Network” on youtube has in-depth presentations about how water heights in major American and European ports (where there is a long history of measurement by port officials) have not changed in the last 100+ years.

That story sure went away fast.

.04%. That is the fraction of our air that is composed of CO2. All this fuss over such a trivial amount. With Mars and Venus at over 95% why is it so small on Earth? Only Earth has plants and they have become very good at pulling CO2 out of the air. In this race plants are like the Tortoise and we are like the quick Rabbit. Rest assured they will eventually catch up with whatever amount Mankind creates

Freezing is more dangerouser. But, if its not “recorded” I guess it doesn’t count.
