The childs view – or if we talk about ostriches – I bury my head in the sand and all you can see is my arse – oh, sorry that was about Farage and his mates.
The statistics are beyond frightening. Inevitable loss has risen from 20% to 39% – sea level rise predictions vary, as inevitable with the variety of scenarios and spread of glaciers across 6 continents. Of course the different geographic and climatic factors affecting each glacier is different. As is the impact on coastal regions. Sea level was both lower and higher in the past, and coastal erosion and deposition has changed coast lines significantly. I am sure that communities will take measures to resist the rising sea levels, but the combined effects of tides, winds, rainfall and temperature may cause huge disasters in the near future as we have 20% of the worlds population living at or near sea level. Could the Thames Barrier with stand similar conditions to 1953? Is the migration that so occupies the right wing wankers just a wavelet on the shore compared to what may follow?
I really, really, really do not understand why people are so dumb?
