Florida circa 2100: Global warming's toll

You might not recognize the Florida that global warming could create by 2100. And the troubles just start at the coast.

They just don't quit. The Slantinel is beyond hope.

Thanks for shedding some light on an undeniable trend, no matter what the cause is. We need to know what this trend can mean in the future.

The theory is 25 years old this year. How much longer do we wait?

I love a good fiction story. Just another excuse to raise taxes.

[Chester DeGrasse]

Better to err on the side of caution.

OK all you global warming cultist put your money where your mouth is.

Global warming is a complete and total HOAX the fact that you refuse to even acknowledge an oppsing view is proof enough of this nonsense.

This is what I want you to do.

Liquidate ALL of your assets and buy land where you think the new coastline will be.

Common! if you really believe the lies you are spewing you could all be billionaires. Think about it the new Miami will be Ocala!

GO FOR IT!

Not really, the best thing "we" can do is not silence or ridicule the ones who point out facts that don't quite support the global warming theory. As someone else said in an earlier post, it seems like an excuse to raise taxes. Hey, I am an enviromentalist to the extent I want everything possible and practicle done to save and preserve the enviroment. I live on acreage and enjoy the nature thst co-exists with me, but these lemming that just keep chanting the same lines over and over again are really the ones we should fear.

Scientific fact you need a cold air mass to collide with a warm air mass to create storms. If the earth is warming then the storms should lessen. Is this happening ? Also, how much influence of the record snow falls from this past winter is involved with the current flooding of the mid west ? They are not getting record rain falls.

[frrapper]

Well, then, move below the Equator, where is is getting colder, not hotter. Thank you for your humurous fiction.

[Spencer]

Let's ignore the 10 year cooling trend that we are in....oh and our heat comes from the Sun...I wonder how it is that we are causing the Sun to heat up???Finally, beach errosion is a natural event, stop trying to pump sand where it will not stay.

As long as you don't live to close to the edge of the earth, you will be fine. There be dragons there.

Please do not use the words "scientific fact." It only proves that you do not have a good education in the sciences. Science seeks to disprove theories. You cannot make a truth out of the inverse of an untruth. I agree with you, however you just sound ignorant.

[Zell]

I don't know. I t is pretty hot out there today. Better raise taxes just to be sure.

[Dean Wormer]

If it gets too hot, it's "global warming." If it gets to cold, it's "global warming." If it gets too dry, it's "global warming." If it gets too wet, it's "global warming."

There is nothing that is not consistent with "global warming" / "climate change".

Anything that is untestable and not subject to verification is a religion, not a science. These "scientists" can't even predict how many hurricanes we're going to have this year; how can they have any idea of what to possibly expect nearly 100 years down the road?

Come on Ludmilla. This is satire. Right? Right?

[Chicken LIttle]

This one sided article is politics, not science.

[Sandy]

Ludmilla Lelis, you have no idea what you are talking about. Are you trying to scare people into buying more newspapers? This story is complete fictional speculation. Oh, and by the way, the new newspaper design sucks too. I am canceling my subscription.

[RGB]

The liberals and elitists are just trying to scare you into paying a carbon tax on yourself of $2 per gallon or more.

"the debate is over" is their mantra. From the appearance of things, they cannot force feed their readers this bs anymore.

I cancelled my OS subscription years ago in an effort to help with the environment.

The the MSM is out of touch and a dying industry.

Thank God Al Gore invented the internet!!!!
