Women and minorities expected to be hit hardest. It's Bush's fault.

Works for me. Sea level goes up, it'll be easier to get a mooring in Marblehead :)

Thin glaciers cause hurricanes, killing thousands of innocent women and cute little babies; All Bush's fault; Film at eleven.

Ice is just shifting elsewhere such as the pacific northwest, because at the at the same time glaciers are growing in California and the once hot and fiery caldera on MT St, Helens is now covered in 600 feet of ice

"sufficient to raise sea level by 0.24 mm (nearly 0.01 inch) per year"
1/100 of an inch a year? So in 100 years the sea will rise ONE INCH?
Forgive if I don't get in the life boat yet....

Didn't Global Warming thaw the Ice Age enabling Man to evolve into the Beast he is today!
Isn't that what they teach in college today?

I figured this would get some great responses! ...and I am not disappointed. :^)

Try this experiment...
Place a lot of ice cubes in a bowl (large salad bowl), then fill with water until the ice floats.
When the water over flows the bowl, that's when you can panic, It won't happen though. It's called Displacement. The ice floating in the water already has taken the space of the melt water that will replace the area the ice has taken up. Water level will not increase.

Thin Glaciers Get Thinner in Antarctica. Luckily, the thick ones are simultaneously getting thicker...

I heard somewhere that the ice on the opposite side of Antartica is growing thicker.

Thank you. I was just going to post the same thing - you saved me the trouble.
I swear, people must just love to have something to panic about.
