On the slim chance it happens, I really don’t see a down side.
I am sick and tired of this punk’s unrelenting bullshit!
Gotta Tidal Wave weapon, Ovomit?
He says this like it would be a negative.
Science may be a thing, but scientists are people.
So there is a huge difference between believing "in" scientists (as though you were believing "in" ghosts)...and believing what scientists claim.
Obamas been watching too many science fiction movies...
well in between his day job of GoofOff-in-Command err GolfPro-in-Command
I hope he’s in the basement of the ESB at the time.
Hmmm that isn’t quite right
sorry should have been GolfPro-in-Chief...
Swim to Carnegie Hall. Tonight, “The Sea Symphony”, by Ralph Vaughan Williams...
I’m waiting for him to tell us that climate change was likely responsible for the lost civilization of Atlantis.
All of a sudden, he’s an expert.
Five hundred citizens of his Chicago will perish this year, by the hands of other citizens; but he’s talking about the most complex fluid dynamic system with certainty.
What a misuse of influence.
Was Manhattan’s shoreline significantly different during the medieval warm period? Because that was a lot warmer than now.
FUBO
I talked to one of the Nobel (peace) Prize winning scientists later of the IPCC panel once. He assured me that Manhattan would be underwater by 1994.
What does he care? Democrats voted for him twice because he could walk on water. What a bunch of dopes.
So what, a few feet over centuries. MOVE.
BTW, shoreline change is VERY common. Check out the Chesapeake Nd the way islands have grown and receded since John Smith.
A good start.
Actually, water levels have been rising since the end of the ice age and will continue to rise until the earth enters another ice age, which may be occurring even as we try to artificially cool it down. Civilizations cope. The water does not inundate the coast in a day. Buildings are razed when they outlive their usefulness and new building happens in a place that is higher if the ground has got too wet. There are probably tremendous amounts of human, perhaps even civilizational, remains on the Continental Shelf. Most of the people in the world, at least outside of Africa, lived near the seashore but the seashore continues to retreat as we get further into the interglacial warm. 7000 yeas ago or so the water rise was much faster than now, but even then it was only a couple of feet per century, fast enough to be noticed by the people who lived on the coast and cause them to move inland every couple of years, but not fast enough to swamp cities suddenly.
When I was in grade school, they warned us that:
1. There would be no more oil by 1980.
2. Women would not be able to breastfeed their babies by 1980 because their milk would have too many pollutants and it would kill the babies.
3. By 1980, everyone would have to live within 100 miles of the equator because pollution was going to freeze the world.
To any of my grade school teachers who are still alive, thanks for the misinformation.
NYC needs a good washing and scrubbing...
