The climate is changing.

Always. Constantly.

It’s the natural cycle.

This is a case of when you get saturated with enough BS you no longer smell it.

Its hard to get excited about something you hear or read about everyday. After a while it gets old and boring. The Global warming nut cases have overplayed their hands and now the general public is no longer interested.

Factor in the effect of spring tides on top of a higher sea level, or a major hurricane-generated tidal surge as experienced with Ivan and we will be looking at some very serious problems here.

Someone should ask them why the Vikings named it “Greenland.”

I'm not paying attention to fractional temperature changes that shift from year to year, but yes, I'm paying attention to the Watermelon crowd.
I know what they're up to.
This is just another tool in their kit to herd the United States toward global socialism.

Oh this is terribly worrying. I believe the Cayman Islands are one of those places where Bill and Hillary stash their dough. Whatever will they do if it sinks?

For example, do we know how much of Grand Cayman’s land mass will disappear with a six inch rise in sea level, with a one-foot rise, with a three foot-rise, and so on?

They don't have topographic maps in the Caymans?

Since the Antarctic cap is getting thicker, I ain’t worried about the seas rising.

It was 39F this morning in Aurora, IL, about 35 miles west of Chicago.

Global warming my ass.

The article you posted is filled with misinformation and unproven statistics. Go to www.CO2science.org, read everything. Then get Chris Horner's book, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Global Warming, read it cover to cover. Then find something real to worry about. Like how long it's been since the Cubs won the World Series. Or terrorists.

"At the current sea-level-equivalent ice-loss rate of 0.05 mm per year, it would take a full millenium to raise global sea level by just 5 cm, and it would take fully 20,000 years to raise it a single meter." pg 150.

Once again, we ask the question: is anyone other than Cayman Net News paying attention to this scenario


I don’t want to alarm anybody but I’ve moved my money out of Cayman banks.

Definitions ~ an icesheet is different than an icecap in that it is larger. An icecap occurs when the amount of ice in a given area (on land) exceeds 85% coverage. If the average amount of open water exceeds 14% coverage, then the result is not referred to as "sea ice", and certainly not as an icecap, nor a polar icecap, nor an icesheet.

Obviously if the ice on a body of water is interspersed with 15% open water, that does not mean the ice has disappeared.

The definitions are easy to find and apply to the current condition in the Arctic ocean.

However, everything we have written on this topic has been met with a deafening silence as to any contingency plans in this respect.

Because you're full of Cayman crap.
