Sea level rise: It's worse than we thought

FOR a few minutes David Holland forgets about his work and screams like a kid on a roller coaster.

Yep, it gets warmer, big deal, happened before. Nothing is new under the sun.

Right.. don't worry. Nothing is new like your denial.

[Peron]

I'm not denying any rising sea levels or warmer temperatures. Just the unscientific speculations of Al Gore and his likes.

Has no bothered to stop and think that this 1 ºF temp rise in 100 years is now being blamed for anything that goes wrong on the planet?
Ice has been melting since the last glacial, it seems that no one took any notice until recently, but now it's been blown out of all proportion and has been declared a catastrophe.

It's 1 ºF folks, one effing degree Fahrenheit!

Right. Those who push for this enviromental madness do so to blame us all collectively and to think and feel that they are little better and moral than the rest of us.

But what they actually are after is our MONEY!

Your oft repeated lie.

Here's the usual evidence that disproves it: ice melt was low and stable for 2000 years before the industrial revolution. It's now happening at a rate "greater than almost all periods for ~4000 years".

Planet earth gets cold sea levels drop, planet earth gets warm sea levels rise, happened before, will happen again.

Did you consult the people of NY, Holland, London, Miami, Bangladesh etc. about this? They are the people likely to lose their homes in the next century.

Ice melt was stable for 2000 years before the Industrial Revolution?
So what, does anyone want to go back to those days?

F**k the people who live at low levels, they'll all be long dead before anything serious happens and their children's children will move on when it becomes necessary.

You alarmists have no idea how mankind has managed over the millennia, as the globe changes shape.

The way you lot ramble on, it's as if something diabolical is going to happen tomorrow, well it isn't and you won't be around to worry, so go play with your trainsets or whatever it is that floats your boats.

Warmists main problem, lack of realistic imagination, although they excel in the fantasy imagination department.

Sea level rise: It's worse than we thought.

We need to start thinking, before we offer policy. Reject CO2 restrictions, fossil fuel is good. We need more CO2, I'm not against nuclear, solar or wind, but if they can't warm our climate to stop the coming ice age, they aren't much good.

poor greenland....

Even if we are causing climate change (which we aren't, we may be assisting it but we did not cause it) we are not hurting the Earth, the Earth will always reheal itself with or without us. We are just hurting ourselves with all of the pollution. This world is overpopulated anyway. Who cares. I think natural selection needs to make a come back and the rising sea level is a good way to knock the human world population down a peg. I am not a conservative republican or a democrat. I think this needs to happen. We have used the Earth too long and there needs to be a change in the system. As far as animals are concerned, there will always be life on Earth and with every extinct species comes a new one. I know this sounds cold, but it is true. Read a biology text book.

The end of the LIA in 1850/70, coincides with a time when the Industrial Revolution was well underway.
We're told that Earth has warmed rapidly since then and the blame is squarely placed on Co2, with no mention of the fact that Earth is still recovering from a short term cold period that lasted for approximately 500 years.

We should all be grateful to have lived during a warm phase and not worry unduly that warming continues.
Emissions reduction will not reduce warming, the best we can hope for is a slightly less polluted atmosphere.

Rise and fall of sea level is a natural occurrence that simply annoys a few humans, it happens very slowly, so nothing to lose any sleep over.
