However, we never seem to hear about all those earth-shattering predictions of his that never came about.

So very true. So many of us just using our intellect and intuition given certain trends could make 10 predictions, based on global events as we observe them now, and it is likely that some of them would come true.

Even assuming that GW warming has some truth to it, would that necessarily all be a bad thing? What if whole new territories opened up in the Arctic, Greenland, Siberia and Antarctica, other places in the world currently uninhabitable?

There would be huge power grabs over it shutting ordinary people out. Of that I am reasonably certain.

That’s funny. Like we have the ability to actually change the temperature of the planet. That’s a good one.

But what the hell does 70s LA smog and old fish in Ohio have to do with religion?

You convinced me. I have changed my mind. Rising oceans is bogus propaganda.

Are there any coastal towns currently under water right now due to rising oceans?

Has the ocean risen at all the past few years?

I don't mean the past 300 years, or 3000 years. I mean the past few years when "man-made" global warming supposedly went into affect.
