"Climate Warming, Ice Sheet Melting,
And The Global Sea-Level Rise Scare
Climate Warming, Ice Sheet Melting,
And The Global Sea-Level Rise Scare
The following review explains – in quantitative terms – why those who are proclaiming that the human-produced component of climate warming are wrong when they conclude that ice-sheet melting and global sea-level rise pose an immediate threat to humanity. This review appeared in the March 8, 2006 web-published version of 2science.org/scripts/CO2ScienceB2C/articles/V9/N10/C2.jsp"> CO2 Science. Readers not interested in quantitative information can skip to the conclusion paragraph highlighted in red at the end of the review.
Sea level rise caused by man-made greenhouse gas emissions is another favourite scare topic of AGW alarmists. But geologists know that sea level has risen by 120 metres since the last ice age. They also know that there have been fluctuations in the Holocene. About 6000 years ago the sea level in this part of the world was about two metres higher than it is now. It went down after that and has been rising again for quite some time. It is also known that the rate of sea level change has not been accelerating since the middle of the nineteenth century, notwithstanding an increase in atmospheric CO2. A real nail in the coffin of alarmism was the report on sea level change in the Maldives by a group of INQUA scientists under the leadership of the INQUA president Professor Nils-Axel Mörner (Global and Planetary Change, vol 40: 177-182, 2004). The Maldives in the Indian Ocean has been a favourite scare subject of AGW alarmists. They tell us that this island group is about to disappear under the ocean waves due to our profligate energy lifestyle. But Mörner et al. found that sea level in the Maldives had been falling in the last 30 years.
We geologists can help to steer climate science away from the ideological hype and straight-jacket and return it to its proper functioning."

Hi pamela,
thanks for the extra "warming" post.
Things may get chilly for the warmers at some point when they have
used up their travelling budgets to visit preferred conference
destinations such as Bali yet still cannot provide stable evidence for
any claims of global CO2-induced warming. At least they got to see
some nice places while providing a few additional tons of CO2 by way of
their preferred frequent flyer programs. The coconuts will grow better.
