Coastline moving in a mile in 30 years??? Probably the same moron who told us the polar ice caps would be completely gone by 2010

Don’t even ask, I’m not parting with one of my NOMES!

As I understand it the Arctic is a sea that boats are travelling on and oil well platforms are being built. And Antarctica is rapidly losing its ice mass. They call it calving as the large ice masses fall into the sea.

So, in other words, you don’t understand it 😁😂😂

Have been here also 18 years. I think that as we get older, we can't handle heat like when we were younger. Over the years here I recall HOT, HOT temps in August and September. If this summer is slightly warmer, then maybe next year will be slightly cooler. I just wish the darn media and our government would not keep pounding into our brains all this global warming. They need to stop this and getting us folks all worked up about it.

I don't see a lot of people getting all worked up about this, I see one person who gets very worked up about it. So yes, it is hot - very hot, and the summer heat seems to last longer than it used to, but whether or not it is global warming is a matter of personal belief. I'll wait, if I live long enough, to see if the polar ice melts and Florida disappears under water.

Oh, I don't know... Maybe because it's SUMMER?

The underwater volcano eruption put more moisture in the air...

And that masks & 6' & shots will protect one from you-know-what.

And THIS is why I asked in my Thread post to pleeeaaasssse not go thru the Global Warming/Climate Change - or totally against it.....arguments. It's been so overdone on TOTV, and what changes??? just more yada - by all of us. And changes ZERO minds. I'm done with my yada.

I think the calving has gone on for thousands of years.

Nice guy that I am we are organizing a trip to Antarctica next year for a personal inspection and will report back as soon as we finishing a census of the penguins to see if population is increasing.

Which has zero effect on the theoretical rising ocean levels...

Well, I am certainly trying hard to understand it.

Yes, this summer is slightly warmer than last summer and (guess what) scientists are saying for, at least, the next 8 years that each year will be slightly warmer than the next. They say that frogs won't jump out of a boiling saucepan just as long as you increase the heat s-l-o-w-l-y. Well, denying Global Warming is much the same. Only it is humans in an EVER-INCREASINGLY hot environment. Humans PRETEND that it isn't happening, but the scientists say, "Yes it IS". And the regular civilians keep pretending and the scientists keep warning - it is like a never-ending cycle. Florida coral reefs are dying because of excess CO2 in the water and the water temperature is so HIGH that it exceeds their liveable range. Around the world, scientists are recording the sea level rise. July was the hottest on record since temperature recording began.
.........It takes about 40 seconds with the Google machine to find out all these environmental facts.
......Some people say, "Ignore science at your own peril".

Not all of Florida will be underwater - just all the buildings within 1 mile of the PRESENT waterline in 30 years. Some of us will live to see that day. Now, one thing might prevent that bad news. If more people would start buying hybrid vehicles and all-electric vehicles.
