Could we all agree to disagree with all the disagreements on here?

Finally someone got it right. The amount of water on the planet has never changed. Sea levels have been much higher and lower. Many scientists believe hat some changes are due to the suns 22 year cycles not human involvement.

Default and

So if there is a HUGE amount of water on the mountains and land what happens to the ocean when it melts

It runs off into the oceans and ocean levels rise. Over the next 25,000 years. Then we cool again, it snows, forms glaciers and more ice at the poles, and NYC will once again, for the 12th time or more, be under 2 miles of ice in 70,000 years. Anyone who thinks this will happen in our lifetimes, such as one prominent individual who wrote a book and had a movie made , is an idiot. Or has a lot of $$$$ to make by pushing this lie.

You might as well. Everyone else is, but just doesn't admit it.

A bunch of guys who flunked 6th Grade Science, debating Global Warming?

Ice Cubes melt and take up the same volume? Scientists are confused about why "hot water freezes faster"? (Look up Mpemba effect.) The oceans aren't rising, the continents are sinking?

Global Warming/Climate Change is a political phenomena and anyone with a whit of common sense knows that.

Trying to apply a modicum of common sense to the arguments, is similar to trying to cure the shanks or the yips, by putting coins in your left pocket.

Exactly, that’s why ice floats. If H2O was like most molecules, it would become more dense and be bad news for fish, because it would sink. I’m not sure where this thread is going, but recall the “experts” all told us we would freeze to death due to the coming ice age when we were kids. Do you think Obama would have bought a beachfront mansion if this global warming was real. It’s all fear mongering for power.

Some who gets it. Now fill that glass with water and put the ice cubes in. Have paper towels ready. The ice that is melting is from the land.
Note all the glaciers that have receded...what is left behind?..dry land.

Didn't a politician once say he wanted to remove our military base(s) on Guam because he feared by adding more tanks, jeeps etc the island may tip over or sink?

You would think, but there are nights that the responsibility is so great that I can not sleep.

Rep. Hank Johnson is a Democrat from Georgia. I think that explains everything.
