So, they say sea level will rise by 1 to 4 feet by the end of the century. Fact or fiction?

As the ice caps melt it will rise some, but it will not be volume for volume. The oceans are not a flat pond.

Going to be some good property development opportunities just a few feet above current sea levels.

I don't care if the sky IS falling. Just don't let it fall on me...

Climate change is real, and has been happening since the beginning of time. Man made climate change? That I may question. Reversing it (man made or natural) by taxing energy, burdening business and increasing the cost of consumer goods with Cap & Trade schemes, driving a hybrid or putting solar panels on your roof, while China’s coal plants are dumping billions of tons of carbon into the air? That I really question.

So, a century plus of green house gasses really doesn't make a difference. Pollution just isn't having an effect on the climate . . . .

I see there are a lot of heavy science majors on Cbid . . .

No, I did not said that it does or does not make a difference. I said I had questions (your reading skills are not the best). What I did say is that the “feel good" environment tax schemes and programs that the libs push as a solution are a joke.

Did you ask the original question just so you could be a douchebag or was it coincidence?

Ever since the Ice Age we've been thawing out. Now it looks like we're slipping back again. Given the historic nature that's played itself out I believe we'll have another Ice Age before the Manbearpig's catastrophic delusions destroy the globe.

Then there's the whole lying to make facts from the scientific community to deal with too. Seems they ALL want in on the swindle.[frypan]

I didn't think we were allowed to say 'Global Warming' anymore...... 😟

I agree it is fair to question the extent of the impact that we have had on the warming. Yet the evidence seems overwhelming that it’s pretty much on us.
To your point, what should be done? Should we not lead by example?

seems like we could just put a giant exhaust fan up in the stratosphere and vent the bad stuff into space...... 😟




I think I'll work on that... 🤔

My attention still won't solve your problem of trying to figure out if you are going to drown due to global warming or be killed by an assault rifle!

(Here is a hint: When the ocean reaches your house, move.)

See, even Drafter wants to help.

Given your solution of moving once the water reaches the front door, I now have new insight as to why the French urinate in the streets.

What if we used paper towels to clean the ozone?
It’s got to need a good wiping by now . . .

Wasn't it the "scientists" who thought the world was flat and that we were the center of the universe?


Cuz I think we didn't have gun clinging bible thumping Americans in those days.
