Apparently, an international team of scientists have worked out how much sea levels would rise if the Larson and George VI ice shelves in the Antarctica collapsed – just a few millimetres of global sea level rise. This somewhat deflates the endles CAGW scaremongering over rising sea levels by the end of this century. Where is all the water going to come from – and these ice shelves were chosen as they have been deemed by the doom mongers as the most likely to melt and sink into the ocean (mainly based on the fact an iceberg calved from one of them a year or so ago). Icebergs are a natural phenomenon – but not in CAGW hype. The whole idea that melting glaciers can add feet to sea level rise comes about as a result of several real rises in sea level at the end of the Ice Age and again, around 8000 years ago. It is assumed it involved melting glaciers, lakes dammed by ice, or the melting of the ice sheet believed to have existed across the northern hemisphere. This is a theory. Has anyone worked out how much ice would have to melt – and where all the ice came from? Are there other causes of sea level rise (or at least sea level rise in Eurocentric localities)?
