Have fun with doom & gloom
 

When Global Warming melts the polar ice caps, all that water has to go some where. Having fish for supper? Cook it or set a place for it?

At this website, http://flood.firetree.net/ , it's very similar to Google earth but you don't have to download or install anything. It's a map rather than photos, but you can go where you wish, then there is a feature where you can set the sea level rise in meters and see what gets inundated. It only goes to 14 meters though.

Check it out now, then take advantage of the depressed Real Estate market to buy some high ground. You will be King, or Queen, and become rich and powerful when the waterlogged lowlanders swim ashore. :yelgreedy

aye, we're doomed, all doomed.....

DOOM DOOM DOOMITY DOOM...

Sorry, Deekin moment here. :D

cool... now, does this mean I will quit having to hear about how superior new york and new yorkers are to everyone and everything?.. oh yes! when they are groveling for a nice dry place to stay I will demand that they never mention anything about the damn upper west side again!..hmm perhaps re-education camps.. er.. I mean refuge shelters.. yeah... shelters...

Everyone can come & stay at mine or my parents'. It seems the sole blessing of being at the furtherest point away from the sea in the country is not having to worry overmuch about rising sea levels....

I'm OK, but it'll only take a 2 M rise to submerge my mother-in-law's house at the beach.

What did people do about the 8" (20cm) rise last century?

Haul in truckloads of sand.

Thank goodness it turns out the problem can be addressed cheaply, over decades of time, using the most available commodity on the planet.

Mmm hmmm. And where are we going to be getting all this sand? The Middle East is where!

Not to mention the oil to fuel the trucks to haul it.

"It's the economy, stupid."

Reminds me of the Futurama clip in "An Inconvenient Truth".

I'm in a great spot... the beach just got closer, awesome.

See, the Iraq thing is not just about oil.....

Half of Holland under water? Did they know the Dutch history? We ain't New Orleans, ya know...
