Look on the bright side.
It would flood most of DC.

For me, it is OK..I am on a beach, but only 12 KM from a 3100 foot mountain.

FINALLY we have a result for “global warming” that is subject to falsification. I mean a 22 foot mean rise in sea level per year over the next decade SURELY would be noticed and easily confirmed./ sarc

That's our boy Albert! Al, the polar ice cap does not rest on land, it is a floating ice mass. When the ice in your glass of iced tea melts, does it overflow the glass? No?

Why then you idiot do you think if the polar cap melts it will raise sea levels.

[Still Thinking]

“The North Pole ice cap is 40 percent gone already and could be completely and totally gone in the winter months in the next 5 to 10 years.”

OK, so the first 40% supposedly melted and the raised the sea levels, gasp, 6 inches or something, and the other 60% is going to raise it 220 feet???

I love Lord Monkton, the peerless global warming foe from the scepter'd island. Any thistle in the side of greenie Prince Charles (he who talks to plants) is a friend of mine.

Unfortunately, former Ambassador Bolton with whom I generally agree, was trying to throw cold water over m'lord at several turns on Beck's show yesterday....albeit it in a civil way.

Bolton was pooh-poohing Monkton's warnings about world government with taxation powers slipping in through things like global treaties on the environment.

Monkton is absolutely correct in his prediction.

He must be off his meds again because he’s denfinately stepped off the deep end!

Pure genius!

[Rurudyne]

Ummmm ... I thought the North Pole ice cap was on water?

Mr.Gore ... have you forgotten about Archimedes and the bath tub?

When you start rising about rising seas (and your own ability to lower them) you start seriously treading into self-deification territory. Consciously, or sub-consciously, these idiots are trying to invoke the trope of the Flood, with perhaps a side-helping of Moses at the Red Sea. And to gain attention the stories have to become more and more grandiose. I agree with all who’ve said that he should be in a home for the criminally insane.

[DTogo]

Awesome! Washington DC flooded and the politicians going hat-in-hand to previously dismissed “fly-over country” looking a new home. HA-ha!

[dforest]

This could happen if Gore went surfing.

[editor-surveyor]

Gore is bananas!

Where is he going to get all that water from? - The whole ice-melt, sealevel rise proposition is nuts to begin with. Most of the ice on Earth is already floating in the oceans, and when it melts it shrinks. There is almost enough ice on antartica to cause a seven inch rise in the oceans, but were it warm enough to melt that, there would be considerably more vapor contained in the atmosphere.

Algore has rented Waterworld so many times that the local Blockbuster keeps a copy behind the count just for him.
