Pre-industrial temperatures were the temperatures of the Little Ice Age.
Thank Heavens for Global Warming!
Keep those blinders on National Geographic.
Here's a clue: if the oceans rise to the point where the islands are completely inundated, NO ONE WILL LIVE THERE!!!!
Another theory with only faulty science to back it up.
these same islands that Al Gore predicted would have been under water a decade ago?
I remember when they though New Mexico would have ocean front property
This is just more clownism from the left to scare people into there stupid belief system that doesn’t work factually
What Horse hockey
Yet, beach front property around the world is still insanely priced and still rises in value every year.
With far left celebrates buying more than their share.
Hmmmmmmm.........
You lost me at IPCC.
What global realtor is behind this?
If they don’t tip over first.
They are sinking - 9 inches every 100 years!
But the Kwajalein tidal gauge operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) shows the mean sea level rise for the atoll is only 2.32 millimeters per year, which is equivalent to just 0.76 feet of sea level rise over 100 years.
Exactly, this article is pure BS. A recent survey of low-lying Pacific islands has shown no increase in Ocean rise over the past twenty years.
“Here’s a clue: if the oceans rise to the point where the islands are completely inundated, NO ONE WILL LIVE THERE!!!”
Maybe they can tip the island over. The bottom side may be taller.
I want to see them all put their islands on stilts.
There is a mean sea level marker from 1947 near a beach in Naples Florida that I look at every time Im there.
Its amazing that at high tide it is under water. At low tide it is above water.
Both by about the same amount.
So sad that the seas on the other side of the world are so much higher than they used to be! ;-(
PS: If you live on an island where the highest point is 33 feet MSL....MOVE! Heck, at current rates, the island will disappear in just 4,400 years - 6418 AD!
My buddy has a house on one of the inlets to Tampa Bay. He shows me pictures from 20 years ago where, at high tide, his boat dock rested just at or slightly above the concrete pier.
Now, it’s 2 or 3 steps down from the pier to the dock - a good 2 feet. No dredging or any modifications have been done, to his knowledge since then.
Where did all the water go???
Ah, The Marshall Islands.
He’ll be glad to know this when I tell him.
The minions have spoken. National Geographic has been voted off the island.
Rising seas give island nation a stark choice:...
That’s not stark choice.
I’ll tell you a stark choice.
Wearing the same underwear two days in a row because you didn’t do your laundry or going with no underwear the second day!!!
What’s not a stark choice is believing any alarmist nonsense from garbage science.
And the good news is, ALL the property on the island is now “beach front.”
