Out shopping with Mrs B this morning, called for a snack at KFC and we were both shocked and stunned that they are still using plastic straws... Unbelievable!😡

There was another famous clown who tried to hold back the sea (or rather demonstrate that he couldn't) The over use of resources coupled with the conceit of mankind may well lead to the catastrophic event we discussed on another thread. Rog Point of order, he wasn't a clown he was a cnut. Wasn't that story something to do with the aegir on the Trent.

Also, all those years ago, 400 millions years ago when trilobites and graptolites were swimming in the seas, the days were shorter, something like 23 hours long. The Earth was spinning faster. It has lost its momentum and has slowed down. when it stops spinning you can be the first to get off.

The sea level will rise appreciably  Get some wellies. Not even waders would suffice.

The sea may rise but is global warming actually just the normal cycle of earth?
If areas do flood, whose fault is it if there are homes and businesses there.?
Even if the icebergs all melt the sea won't rise that much.

Water expands +4% between 4°C and 100°C. I have no idea what this means to sea levels but it must be a factor? Presumably it also expands from 4°C to 0°C so that cold water warming up must negate some of the warmer stuff heating up. I'd have thought the majority of the oceans are bloody cold, and colder the deeper you measure. Round in a nice circle there.

Even if the icebergs all melt the sea won't rise that much. and I suppose if all the frozen fresh water in the world (including the ice cap at the south pole, all the glaciers in the world and the icecap over Greenland) melted then the sea level won't rise much either ................. depends what you mean by 'that much'. Consider that most of the world's population lives in coastal locations below an altitude of 200ft. They will all be rendered homeless.

I have seen plenty of studies which proof it will be nowhere near a 200ft rise. Lets not forget it will take over 5000 years to melt it all, if it all goes.
