Global warming / how Germany and Denmark are impacted by rising sea levels0

[telemann.livejournal.com]

Germany / Denmark, with a sea level increase of 100 meters.



A big caveat: no one is calling for such an increase by 2100, and it will likely take hundreds of years, but it will eventually happen. Meanwhile, rising sea level increases will impact low laying crop areas in China, and Southeastern Asia, and India, and South America, and some areas of the United States.

I think I hear a voice from the puddle: "This isn't global warming! It's ebola - thanks, Obama!"

Myth of Arctic meltdown: Stunning satellite images show summer ice cap is thicker and covers 1.7million square kilometres MORE than 2 years ago...despite Al Gore's prediction it would be ICE-FREE by now

Sorry sport. You've been suckered, yet again.

Ice cover is far down below the levels when it was measured for the first time in 1979.



Also the ice cover is much thinner, that's why it looses so much surface area in the Summer months too.





Oh and about Al Gore's prediction?

Predictably, the voices of denial are rising as Arctic sea ice melt season peaks and ranks only fifth-lowest ever. The clamor is being raised over Al Gore's Nobel Prize acceptance speech quote supposedly saying that Arctic sea ice would be gone by 2013.1 What Gore did or didn't say is beside the point: For the propagandists delivering this message, the objective is "cast doubt and discredit." From Gore's speech:

Last September 21 (2007), as the Northern Hemisphere tilted away from the sun, scientists reported with unprecedented distress that the North Polar ice cap is "falling off a cliff." One study estimated that it could be completely gone during summer in less than 22 years. Another new study, to be presented by U.S. Navy researchers later this week, warns it could happen in as little as 7 years.2

And yes, the deniers cannot even add. Not only did Gore not say "by 2013," but it would be 2014 at the soonest. ... On to reality:

The Navy researcher that leads this "new study" team that the former vice president alludes to is Wieslaw Maslowski at the Naval Post Graduate School in Monterey, California. The team's research was funded by the Department of Energy (DOE), the Office of Naval Research (ONR), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Maslowski also did not say "by 2013" in his original research in 2007 or when it was republished in 2009. This grandstanding about sea ice and Gore, for whatever reason, is a huge and egregious deception. The actual prediction from Maslowski's 2009 publication is, "Autumn could become near ice free between 2011 and 2016."

Maybe he's thinking of the Antarctic sea ice getting larger, which is because the glaciers are melting at such a rapid rate.
