Try this experiment at home. Fill a glass with water, and add some ice cubes. When the ice cubes melt, does the level of water in the glass rise?

Hey Einstein. Do you know the difference between an ice sheet and an ice shelf?

A good portion of the sea level rise is due to thermal expansion of the oceans…

Meanwhile, scientists from other countries have determined that nuclear energy is the best way at present to combat global warming. China, India, Japan, France, Russia and Australia are all building more nuclear power plants.

Maybe their school systems are better in those countries. From reading your responses, I can tell the US schools are horrible. Those other countries are going to pass us like we were standing still. Good job, folks.

In his defence, he made no claims as to exactly where in the learning curve he currently is.

Another item to Verbalkint’s list: “Global warming is caused by the Sun so there is nothing we can do about it. See, there is global warming in Mars too”.

Never mind that the evidence for global warming in Mars is a lot less conclusive, and that the deniers -as usual- choose to believe scientitst in one instance but dismiss them out of hand in the other.

So, it’s your contention that all the ice sheets on the planet are floating in the water?

Are you sure? Is that your final answer?

Sheesh…and this from a troll who calls himself “The Learning Curve”.

TP, can we have another troll for this thread, please? This one appears to be broken.

Take your glass of water. Next to it, a glass of ice. When the ice melts (like glaciers on LAND, Greenland’s ice sheet ON LAND), pour it into the first glass.

That’s how sea level rises occur.

Back to 3rd grade for you…

Why are the US scientists not as intelligent as the scientists from France, Japan, India, China, Russia, and Australia? Another case of our school system being inferior to these other countries, especially in math and science?

Other countries are building nuclear power plants. Why aren’t we?

Wordwide economic collapse from the 100’s of millions of people displace from coastal areas once the oceans are inundated by billions and billions of gallons of Greenland and Antartica’s ice sheets.

Drought, famine from shifting weather patterns caused by changes in sea currents and trade winds.

More war, more disease, more suffering.

Sounds peachy, huh?

“Even if we stop burning fossil fuels, the rest of the world won’t, and China is the biggest polluter out there.”

OR:

“Warming is actually good for the economy”

BTW, is your real name Charles Montgomery Burns?

As you see it, what are the consequences of global warming?
