There was an article last week here that said that the ice was INCREASING in the Antarctic!The ice had not melted completely in the Great Lakes! Can’t these IDIOTS get their stories straight
If it has already begun, how high is sea level now from say 10 years ago? How does that amount extrapolate out to one hundred years or “the next few centuries”.
In 300 years it’ll be 13 feet higher? That means the sea level rise now should be close to 5 inches from 10 years ago.
Is it?
Love the “Why We Can’t Beat The Soviets” at the top of that magazine cover!
The media is always wrong!!
That's why they turned their attention from the Arctic (floating ice) to the Antarctic which is a land mass covered in glaciers.
Now...won't the land mass heave upward as the glaciers melt since huge amounts of weight will be removed? That happened at the end of the last ice age, didn't it?
I have a simple experiment that even a 3rd grader can do: put an ice cube in a glass, fill the glass (to the brim) with water and wait for the ice to melt.Record the results.
How many are a few centuries? Less than five, but more than two? Will the 13 feet rise happen as a tsunami like wave or in centimeter increments and starting when?
I have rubber boots, but they don’t go to 13 feet. They barely go above my knees. Will I have to go with inflatable waders?
“Rise of Oceans Due to Melting Antarctic Ice Sheet Is ‘Unstoppable’ “
Total codswallop. There’s nothing that new taxes and lifestyle regulations can’t stop.
