The Iberian subduction will gradually pull Iberia towards the United States over approximately 220 million years."I don't want no damn white Eur-o-pee-ans comin' over and messin' with what Barack's gettin' done here! For the first time, I'm proud of this country!"

Doesn’t that also mean that there is another plate, probably in the Pacific, that is being pulled apart??
Maybe off the west coast??

As Global Warming loses its cachet and is discredited will this be the new sky-is-falling hysteria? It would be an interesting one, and based on something that is probably really true and will severely affect coastal environment in only a few hundred million years. If we don't prepare it will suddenly be upon us and we will all get crushed!

Better hang a few boat bumpers off the coast.

Wouldn’t a subduction zone be the best place to dispose of nuclear waste? How long does it take for subducted rock to be recycled back to the surface of the Earth?

The Iberian subduction will gradually pull Iberia towards the United States over approximately 220 million years. Where will the volcanoes form?
Iberia will be sliding under the North American Plate?
How will this effect the Mid Atlantic spreading?

“as continental Europe moves closer to America.”
Sounds like those long ocean flights will be a thing of the past.
Time to sell airline stocks then.
