Lessee, Let’s do the math. If the seas were to rise a meter (or metre for you EuroEggheads, then we would have to calculate 1 metre x the cubic miles of the sea...Hmmm..just the concept of that means that someone (God?) would have to create a heck of a lot more water........

Preposterous and utterly silly in it’s face.

Lessee, Let’s do the math...

Surface area of the "world ocean:" 361 million square kilometers.

To wrap a slice of water one meter thick around all that area would take... let's see...

A meter is 0.001 km, so that's 361 million times 0.001 equals 361 thousand cubic kilometers, or almost 87,000 cubic miles of water. That's a cube 44.3 miles on a side. And that's not counting the increase in the surface area of the oceans that would result as they flooded inland over every continent.
