NASA: Sea Levels Rising
Quote:Sea levels worldwide rose an average of nearly 3 inches (8 cm) since 1992, the result of warming waters and melting ice, a panel of NASA scientists said on Wednesday.

In 2013, a United Nations panel predicted sea levels would rise from 1 to 3 feet (0.3 to 0.9 meters) by the end of the century. The new research shows that sea level rise most likely will be at the high end of that range, said University of Colorado geophysicist Steve Nerem.

Sea levels are rising faster than they did 50 years ago and “it’s very likely to get worse in the future,” Nerem said.

Fluctuating sea levels is a pretty standard occurrence for Earth.

No. He just went to that other forum. The one where all the WWE crowd went.

Let's just call it

Denial isn't just a river in Africa. And if we keep going in this direction, it won't be a river in Africa.

Sea levels are rising faster than they did 50 years ago…

They are rising faster than they were 50 years ago. However, they are rising at the same rate that they were 80, 70 and 60 years ago…

Earth will keep on spinning with or with life on it. Now if people want to claim there is some ideal temperature range for the planet then that's fine, but I think many underestimate the engineering implications and the compromises involved in such a statement.

I was more referring to the population ignoring the scientists warnings and it dooming their planet, but sure go with a drawing.
