Hi guys,

I'm new here and I made this video about the Top city's at risk from climate change. I'm trying to create awareness about the topic as people seem to still not care about the growing threat.

Global warming cannot be stopped but we can lessen it's severity, and educating the masses is the only way.

Do you think horror flicks are appropriate for kids? If you want to frighten them with an unbelievable story, just show them "Halloween" and tell them "Michael Myers cannot be stopped!"

In other words, you didn't have to make a "Holloween 11"...you could have used one that already existed.

[color=blue]Do you really imagine that a less than knee high sea level rise is going to flood any city??

We have 85 years to build up our defenses. With less money than is spent on trafic lights any city will be able to counter this with no problem what so ever.

That's true in that a little has already occurred and more is sort of committed, sort of "in the pipeline," but a person hearing "global warming cannot be stopped" out of context might just think "Well why bother me about it then?"

Do you really imagine that a knee-high sea-level rise is going to happen over the next thirty years?

If so, why do you believe this?

I don't and nor does the science. The higer predictions say that there may be a knee high rise by 2100. I don't really think it is possible but so what?

A report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA found if the earth's temperature climbed just four degrees by 2100, homes would be sinking in 200 to 2000 years because of the high sea level.

Even if the temperature increased by just two degrees, the sea level will still rise over four metres.

4m???

Where do you think the water is going to come from????

The maths is fairly simple. Surface area of ocean 360 million km2. Please tell me.

I don't think so. Please copy and paste here in this thread the section you believe has the math(s) that calculates a 4-meter rise in sea level.

So if Greenland and Antarctica are actually accumulating ice then all this becomes moot, yes?

Translation: To you, I seem extraordinarily naive about the dishonesty of the warmizombie congregation.

No, I understand the inherent dishonesty in a religion that dupes its own congregation into thinking that the unfalsifiable dogma is really falsifiable science. I also understand the confusion, and resulting frustration, of the die-hard worshipers who are so scientifically illiterate that they cannot question anything they are ordered to believe.

Surface Detail, I feel your pain.

Surface Detail wrote: The paper that louiv linked to, together with the chain of references that it builds on, describes the evidence, assumptions and calculations used to estimate future sea level rise.

Please paste into this thread the calculations in that paper that arrived at a 4-meter rise in the sea level.

Surface Detail wrote: You can't just copy and paste this!

I could certainly paste the calculations, were they to actually exist.

4-meter sea-level rise. The calculations from the paper. Paste them here.

Surface Detail wrote:Don't be ridiculous. Read the paper, and tell us why you disagree with its conclusions, one of which is that unabated carbon emissions up to the year 2100 would commit an eventual global sea-level rise of 4.3–9.9 m.

Once again your delusion has you claiming that support for your theology somehow exists where it doesn't.

I couldn't find it where it was promised to be. I simply asked you to paste it in this thread so I could see the calculations. Your refusal to help speaks volumes, i.e. EVASION, your king is tipped.
