Meteorologists are not climate scientists.
If Freeman Dyson (a renowned theoretical physicist at Princeton University) is not qualified to have an opinion on global warming because he is not a climate scientist why should you care about the opinion of a mere meteorologist?
The Pliocene Epoch shows that global warming was much greater back then with ...[text shortened]... ing. It does no good to prove there is global warming if nature is the primary cause. Try again.

You have mentioned your brother in law building his condo in a stupid place before. That is his own fault for being foolish. It is not because of global warming that he has a problem. We have been over this before. Stop blaming the climate on your own bad judgement. Look at any sea level chart and see there is not any problem. Rises are predictable and not alarming at all.

I guess for you it's business as usual until my Florida coast home gets inundated with the ocean.

Originally posted by Metal BrainThe evidence is already starting but people like you prefer to just hide your head under the sand preferring to just do business as usual. The land already lost in Alaska you just decide is due to local causes like storms and such. Ho Hum business as usual, move along, there is nothing here to see.
There is no evidence for that.
Originally posted by sonhouseGeological changes are causing the east coast to sink. And there is also speculation of the possibility of sea levels rising, which of course would exacerbate the problem.

Originally posted by lemon limeSea levels are rising everywhere. It has been measured in many parts of the globe and is not based on looking out the window at cliffs. It is based on highly accurate scientific measurements.
It doesn't make sense for overall ocean levels to be rising in the east but dropping in the west, so I suspect geological changes are being ignored when someone attributes a rising sea level where they live to only one factor, i.e. global warming.
Originally posted by lemon lime...and obviously nobody is saying the overall ocean levels are "rising in the east but dropping in the west". Sea level rise is occurring EVERYWHERE, both 'east' and 'west'.
