I would then look at Washington States Hanford Nuclear disoposal site sited nexted to the Columbia River and sewage from Washington and Western Canada. Also look at farming practices in the area. I suppose we can push farmers more but then two things would happer. many farmers would quit farming as many don't make much and the cost of food would increase ( might reduce obesity rates).
we can also force municipalities and individals up up grade sewage systems. Pittsburgh is being forced to now an t a cost estimated to be $6-8 billion. Wnat be bet theier sewage tares will explode soon? |

Ok? So are you saying that we shouldn't do anything, then?
So we have to pay a few billion dollars to not have chit in our water... what do we have to give up? A tunnel under a river that flows under 100 bridges? Having to pay an extra 3 dollars for our Snuggie blankets?
Low costs don't justify killing off huge swaths of the ocean

oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh, RISING CO2 LEVELS......

| It must have been a real flat island. The article mentioned rocky areas but the rate of rise in water level and the island disapperaing ( it still there but submerged) so quickly with a 0.2 inches per year increase in water level does not compute. |

Yes, pap, the LIBCHITS claim that we have global warming, and to prove it, just ask anyone about the "WINTER OF 2009/10"....

Here is what I do not get, and maybe one of you more scientific minds can help me. They say water is rising because the polar ice caps are melting (They actually got thicker this year according to The American Legion magazine) but here is my problem. Put an ice cube in a glass, then fill it to the rim with water. When the ice melts, why doesn't the glass overflow?
Seems the same would hold true about the ice caps and ocean levels?

Because a lot of the ice cap is not currently in the water but sitting on land. |

SSSS, aw, there you go.....MAKING TOO MUCH SENSE FOR YOUR FELLOW LIBCHITS TO UNDERSTAND......
You must speak to them in LIBCHIT GIBBERISH......like "global warming" causes the temperature to drop......the water to freeze......that excuses the worst winter (temperature and snow amounts) in decades.

Dear SSSS, When water freezes, it expands. This expansion makes ice less dense than liquid water, and that is why ice floats. If you take any container, and fill it with a solid block of ice, then let the ice melt into water, the level of water will be less than the previous level of ice.
The cool part of this is that H2O is the only molecule that acts this way -- all the rest contract when they freeze. And it is this property of water that makes life possible. Without water, and its strange phase transitions, we wouldn't be here.
This all has a small effect on the hot button issue of global warming, which is a subject best qualified for Vegas bookies and talk show hosts

Great Free, you just screwed up the some of best stuff the Global Warmers had going for them.  |
