Beam me to Planet Gore !
Science is now suggestions?
Hmmm. Why do ice cubes float?
I have some swampland I’ll sell them.
set to riseReally. Set. To. Rise.
Not now rising.
But...
Set.
To.
Rise.
I’m glad I live on a hill.
Actually, we’ve had so much rain and such a quick temp rise in the past week that there is standing water all over the place here in Southern Wisconsin.
Looks like we’re in for another flood-filled, wet, slow start to Spring.
Now...where do I apply for my Grant Money to study this constant change in precipitation between Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring in a four-season area? ;)
Dr John Church of the Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research added: “The most recent research showed that sea level is rising by 3mm a year since 1993, a rate well above the 20th century average.”
Wow, an increase of 1 inch in 8 years, if the forecast is accurate in the first place, which it probably isn’t.
*Yawn*
Whew! That's 99 meters less than Al Gore's prediction!
What changes in the polar ice-sheets? The ones that missed counting ice the size of California?
Sounds like a Meter of Dung.
Apparently they haven’t received the memo on the cooling that is going on.
They are really giving Science a bad brand name.
That analysis is a bunch of Obama.
Good. All the more sea to dump tea into!
“The global sea level looks set to rise far higher than forecast...”
But is not this statement itself the forecast? And if so, then we have recursion and we’ll all drown momentarily.
But I’m not holding my breath.
I would predict sea level rise by 2100 in the order of one metre; it could be 1.2m or 0.9m.Now how could a weather prediction 91 years in the future be off?
We've GOT to believe this stuff. Right?
2) If there is a rise, people have worked out that a canal could be dug from the Mediterranean Sea to the Quatar (sp?) Depression which would give Libya a lovely piece of additional ocean-front property and guarantee that the world-wide sea level would not change a bit.
This is TOTALLY a non-issue.
Our entire central valley here in California was once an inland sea. And our mountains were covered by great glaciers. Global warming caused the glacier ice and the sea waters to recede leaving us our fertile valleys and wondrous place like Yosemite Valley.
Global warming is a wonderful thing. It isn’t man’s doings. God has a hand in it.
Based on past experience, I expect that sea level rise will accelerate as the planet gets hotter.And based on temperature readings of the last TEN YEARS, the planet is getting COLDER.
So what does that do to this whole "story"?
Does all this mean that the peak of Mt. Everest is set to fall?
The BBC has to be just about the most biased “news” organizations on the face of the earth. From global warming to Hamas terrorism and all points in between the BBC consistently bends over backwards to promote a particular point of view. Its really a shame that everyone in the UK is forced to shell out 139.50 pounds a year on each set they own to support this garbage.
