Sea level rise 'overblown,' solar energy 'dumb,' conference of climate change deniers, Trump officials hear

White House officials join event mocking climate change science and renewable power

Thomson Reuters · Posted: Aug 09, 2018 4:01 PM ET | Last Updated: 21 minutes ago

Pumping carbon dioxide into the air makes the planet greener; the United Nations puts out fake science about climate change to control the global energy market; and wind and solar energy are simply "dumb."

These are among the messages that flowed from the America First Energy Conference in New Orleans this week, hosted by some of the country's most vocal climate change doubters and attended by a handful of Trump administration officials.

The second annual conference, organized by the conservative think tank the Heartland Institute, pulled together speakers from JunkScience, the Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow, and the Center For Industrial Progress, along with officials from the U.S. Department of Interior and the White House.

Panels at the event included: Carbon Taxes, Cap & Trade and Other Bad Ideas; Fiduciary Malpractice: The Sustainable Investment Movement; and Why CO2 Emissions Are Not Creating A Climate Crisis.

But it is not zero. :)

Salt water... salt water is denser or objects are more buoyant in it. When water freezes, is the salt/water ratio maintained? Or mostly water. And salt water freezes at a lower temperature.

Here's what we know:

IF any of the islands in the Pacific that have been designated 'bellwether' islands (the first to go under if oceans rise) go under, we will hear about it from every newspaper in the United States THAT DAY - on the front page - above the fold.

Does it matter? Icebergs are mostly composed of fresh water.

Yes. If you are designing a ship or submarine. Salt vs fresh water will make a difference.

My back yard ends at a salt water stream. In thirty years it's stayed the same (high tide, low... sometimes hurricanes but 'the same' overall) Miami is having some flooding... if the sea level was causing the problem I would also experience higher water levels.

Have you ever seen a glass of water where the water was higher on one side than the other side? NO. And yes, I know about the Panama canal... but those difference have NOTHING to do with global warming...

That's for sure. So what is your point?
