every action has a reaction. we've not prepared for what's to come. i think most people will starve. and i don't think most people realize the scope of the problem. countries that think the us will come to their rescue like in the past will find that help isn't coming. the us will have too many problems of it's own. washington is going to flood when florida is flooding; and california is flooding; and every other coast. since most refineries are near the coast; where will the petrol come from? when people are evacuating; will fuel trucks be delivering fuel? will store owners stay open for the evacuees or will they evacuate themselves? if the areas that grow our food become flooded; will there be any food to distribute?
i could go on but you're obviously only interested in smart arse comments.
And masturbation. At it all over the board all night. :eek: I'm surprised pecker hasn't fallen off.

At the current rate, the average temperature around the world will be 8 degrees Celsius (~46 F) higher by 2100, making many places on earth unsustainable for life. That will occur before anyone starves.

That is my belief. It isn't going to change over night. The tide isn't going to consume the coastal regions all at one time. The change will be gradual... and guess what? Species will evolve to tolerate the change.
It is not going to become OLS's survivalist dream world. As the coastal regions begin to get claimed by rising waters... people will move to higher gounds instead of continually living in their home until the water reaches the rafters.

i beg to differ. that same study predicted a certain amount of ice to be melted by 2050. that ice melted earlier this year.
the problem is that scientists make predictions based on their own field and constants. however; nature isn't constant. when you warm water; it may take 15 minutes to raise the temperature 1 degree; however; it may only take 10 minutes to raise it another degree. in the last 4 times the earth delt with global warming; the ice melted within a decade. a recent expedition to a melted area showed ferns and other tropical plants in core samples taken from the ocean floor.
our biggest fear should be a rise of 7*F because at that temperature; the frozen methane pockets around the world will melt. and; at that temperature; native plants will be dead and decaying causing more methane.
HOWEVER; after that the oceans will no longer circulate and we will delve into an ice age. when our ice caps return we will stabilize but for those who survive; the earth will be a totally different place.

how much will those people get for their houses and their equity when they evacuate to higher ground? they'll still have to pay their mortgages. since the ice melted thus far has been sitting in water; it hasn't caused a rise in levels. the rise thus far has been from melting glaciers. the meltwater from now on is from land. it's melting faster and every drop will add to sea level rise. if a massive piece of glacier from greenland should slide into the ocean, we could see a rise of a meter overnight. maybe more.
when people leave their worthless houses and their jobs; how will they buy or rent on higher ground? they have no job; no house; but still have a mortgage. would you rent to them?
like i said; you have to take everything into account. neither the scientists nor the people living in coastal reagons have thought about that.

you completely missed the point. i'm saying that the houses will be worthless. they will have to be abandoned. and those people will evacuate and many will face financial ruin. they'll end up in a tent on government land eating government cheeze.

Your model... your studies... your research. admit it... you don't have a model. I bet you base your opinions on programs you see on Discovery's 'Mega Disasters'. I'd looove to see your research some day. But, I'm betting they are non-existant... or live inside a television screen.

I am a skeptic by nature. I place a lot of weight on facts... and facts present a compelling arguement in my book. So, since you have already posted the results of your research... simply point me towards them so that I, and others reading this, can read and validate your studies. I do not believe they exist because I have not personally witnessed anything you claim to possess that back up your "opinions". It's the same reason I will argue with a person who tells me that their religion is the "truth". That is a relative truth, not an absolute. And if others here have read them... point me towards them and maybe they can point me towards your research.
And, trust me... jealousy of unsustantiated claims is not part of my nature. I question things.... but, I do not question facts. If, as you state, these are opinions... state them as such instead of claiming them to be factual data. Show us the factual data. I do not argue against facts. For example, I will argue your "opinions" on such things as the 3 largest lakes in Africa have evaporated into mud puddles because the facts say otherwise. So, why should anyone agree with your claims of the mass extiction of 4.4 billion people?
Will people be displaced due to rising sea levels? Yes. But, it does not spell out 4.4 billion deaths. Rising sea levels is not in the arguement. It is your assumption that it will cause the deaths of 2/3 of the global population that I find not credible.
So, point me towards your studies... your research... your technical data and your model and I will read them. If you present a compelling arguement with factual data... I promise you... I will make an public acknowledgement that I was wrong and your are right. And just to let you know, when I make a promise... I keep it. THAT is part of my nature.

Hold on to the thread
The currents will shift
i'm basically retired. i watch buffalo eat. so i've got all the time in the world to do studies and mess with the computer and do things like that. i've posted my results and predicted the ice amount to be melted this year; last year. the scientists predicted that ice to melt by 2050. i was right. you can't explain that can you? you only want to lash out from jelousy or some reason.
talk to others and see what else i've been dead on about. i don't want to play these silly games with you. if you have nothing nice to say; don't say anything. i haven't said anything negative about you. what's your problem? i've said it over and over. this is an opinion board. i post my opinions. i see no need for you to act like a child.
plenty of comparison photos to enjoy

Sounds like a fantastic place you live in fantastic. Too many cookie cutter homes in poorly built subdivisions in my neighborhood now to see the stars anymore.
And you may be out of the rat race but you certainly do not sound retired to me.

I am a skeptic by nature. I place a lot of weight on facts... and facts present a compelling arguement in my book. So, since you have already posted the results of your research... simply point me towards them so that I, and others reading this, can read and validate your studies. I do not believe they exist because I have not personally witnessed anything you claim to possess that back up your "opinions". It's the same reason I will argue with a person who tells me that their religion is the "truth". That is a relative truth, not an absolute. And if others here have read them... point me towards them and maybe they can point me towards your research.
And, trust me... jealousy of unsustantiated claims is not part of my nature. I question things.... but, I do not question facts. If, as you state, these are opinions... state them as such instead of claiming them to be factual data. Show us the factual data. I do not argue against facts. For example, I will argue your "opinions" on such things as the 3 largest lakes in Africa have evaporated into mud puddles because the facts say otherwise. So, why should anyone agree with your claims of the mass extiction of 4.4 billion people?
Will people be displaced due to rising sea levels? Yes. But, it does not spell out 4.4 billion deaths. Rising sea levels is not in the arguement. It is your assumption that it will cause the deaths of 2/3 of the global population that I find not credible.
So, point me towards your studies... your research... your technical data and your model and I will read them. If you present a compelling arguement with factual data... I promise you... I will make an public acknowledgement that I was wrong and your are right. And just to let you know, when I make a promise... I keep it. THAT is part of my nature.
Hail, Hail!!!
