Al Gore told me that global warming was causing the arctic ice
cap to melt and the ocean is going to rise 20 feet.
Last night I mixed a drink in a tall glass with lots of ice. I
left it sit too long and the ice melted but the glass did NOT
overflow. In fact the liquid level was the same!
What's wrong here? (besides ruining a perfectly good drink)
Thanks

Global warming has turned into a new religion, as usual for religions
no longer based on facts. If they can be made to BELIEVE that glass
is overflowing, for a substantial donation of course, then the glass
will overflow....in their minds.

One little problem with rising oceans not bantered about is the warmer
ocean has a HUGE increase in EVAPORATION over it's now larger surface.
The hotter it gets, the bigger its surface, the more it
evaporates...tons and tons! The ocean may rise 20 ft, in some
places. For instance, in the Bay of Fundy, it rises 60 ft, every
day....and global warmists never mention it. They probably don't
BELIEVE it rises 60', even if it falls 60' six hours later. You can
see how this religion, like the rest of them, is a religion of
CONVENIENT beliefs....those that generate the largest government
grants on a recurring basis.

The Earth IS warming up. Being that it is already nearly as cold as
it has ever been since the last ice age, that's not such a bad idea!
What will just blow the new global warmists into orbit is if it, once
again like it did from 1940-1975, goes into a sustained cooling
period, or, worse yet, if it goes into another Little Ice Age like it
did in the late 1800's when my Irish ancestors had to flee to America
through Ellis Island because it was too cold in Ireland to feed her
people....in an era when thousands and thousands of huge smoke stacks
were just POURING coal fumes, carbon black, wood fire pollution into
the atmosphere....and we almost froze to death from......"global
warming" caused by humans.

Very professionally done....watch it all.

As the Greenland ice-cap melts, more topsoil is exposed, and can be used for
agriculture, to feed the rapidly-rising population of the earth. Same with
Antarctica. Isn't God wonderful?
