Islands Disappear As Ocean Levels Rise

In 100 million years, we will not recognize the Earth. The continents will move, old lands will be under the sea and new lands will be above water. Old species of plants and animals will be gone, and new species of plants and animals will be around, that don't exist today. It's all very exciting, and it's too bad some people want to be afraid of the future, instead of embracing it.
 
Can you imagine the stupidity and arrogance it takes for modern man to believe that we can control the climate of the planet
 
No, facts do not matter to them, because facts fly in the face of what they have been told to believe.

Ah....a perfect description of you massively ignorant, anti-science denier cult nutbaggers. You nailed it....and yourself.
 
Maybe someone just dumped too many ice cubes in the ocean after a big beach party.



Curious as to why you thought this topic needed another thread?

Have you ever heard of erosion?

Do you know why the Smokey Mountains are far less steep and not as high as the Rocky Mountains?
 
Do you people actually believe that the PhDs studying sea level rise have never thought of subsidence or erosion?

Scientists are just the same as non-scientists. They are subject to the same faults as we all are. they want the same things that we do. They are NOT above being tempted by fortune, fame, and achievement.

If you know history AND science, you know that the history of science is not one of pious devotion solely to learning. Scientists have ALWAYS been for hire. Ever since the time of the Greeks and the birth of science.

The history of science shows us that science has been wrong far more often than it has been right. Even recently. The tobacco industry has scientists in their employ who stated in court that smoking had no link to cancer. More recently, science told us that all we had to do was decrease our serum cholesterol and we wouldn't have heart attacks. That butter was bad for us, and if you have been watching the news, we find out that now, pregnant women taking extra Folic acid may be linked to autism when we had been previously told that Folic Acid needed to be taken during pregnancy.

Astrophysicists are now saying that they may have to abandon all or most of the Big Bang Theory, and Steven Hawking recently stated that he was wrong about worm holes.

Scientists are not the last word on anything, but the left wants to destroy the things that made this country great based on the CURRENT beliefs of scientists who are not able to provide actual proof of their claims.
 
I recently saw the VICE documentary which showed footage of Vienna that was just heartbreaking. They now have elevated walkways and vendors sell rain booties. Businesses have to close because they're flooded.

Footage of NYC was similar and people are losing their homes in Florida.

The small islands are the saddest though. Past president of the Maldives was shown holding a meeting underwater to draw attention to their plight. Thousands have been made homeless and as always, its those who can afford it the least to hit the hardest.

Other countries are pushing green energy but of course, the US can't lead the way. Instead, the RWNJs whine about coal companies going under as though that's a bad thing.

Other countries are training their people in modern day jobs but not the US. Other countries are producing so much green energy, they're able to sell it but not the US.

If we are to survive, we MUST treat the idiot deniers like what they are and move forward without them.
Geesus! Vienna needs elevated walkways due to climate change? Vienna averages 1,000 feet above sea level you damned fool.
People losing their homes in Florida? you do realize that a good deal of Florida coastal land is filled in swamp and open ocean, don't you? A lot of these places are being eroded by storms and normal wave action, but sea level is roughly 12 inches higher than it was in 1870 or 0.08"/year.
Maldives....... How about you educate yourself a bit, OK?
Will Pacific Island Nations Disappear as Seas Rise? Maybe Not

Are island nations like Tuvalu, where most of the land is barely above sea level, destined to sink beneath the waves, like modern-day Atlantises?

Not necessarily, according to a growing body of evidence amassed by New Zealand coastal geomorphologist Paul Kench, of the University of Auckland's School of Environment, and colleagues in Australia and Fiji, who have been studying how reef islands in the Pacific and Indian Oceans respond to rising sea levels.

They found that reef islands change shape and move around in response to shifting sediments, and that many of them are growing in size, not shrinking, as sea level inches upward. The implication is that many islands—especially less developed ones with few permanent structures—may cope with rising seas well into the next century.

And the zika virus causes women to have babies with small heads. hahahahhhahhahahahhahahahahahaha

Holy shit! Are you kidding or what? Would you now like to suggest something to replace scientific method of inquiry. Or do you reject science based on some other pretext?

It isn't "all or nothing". I'll listen to the pros and cons. If you listen closely and with an open mind you can reason out what is likely the truth. When I see coersion, intimidation, and fraud like I see in the AGW believer's side, it's a pretty sure bet that they are wrong.

The point of that is you cannot logically day that scientists say it is so, therefor it must be so. History says that's bull shit.

And here's why you are completely full of shit: If there were a scientific consensus showing the opposite of the current conventional wisdom.......you would agree wholeheartedly.

funny, you can't disprove what he just wrote, so you write this? funny.

BTW, why not just post up a definition of what you feel is scientific procedure?
