Reality hits home:
Warming to Cause Catastrophic Rise in Sea Level
Stefan Lovgren
for National Geographic News
Updated April 26, 2004
Most scientists agree that global warming presents the greatest threat to
the environment.
There is little doubt that the Earth is heating up. In the last century the
average temperature has climbed about 0.6 degrees Celsius (about 1 degree
Fahrenheit) around the world.
>From the melting of the ice cap on Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa's tallest peak,
to the loss of coral reefs as oceans become warmer, the effects of global
warming are often clear.
However, the biggest danger, many experts warn, is that global warming will
cause sea levels to rise dramatically. Thermal expansion has already raised
the oceans 4 to 8 inches (10 to 20 centimeters). But that's nothing compared
to what would happen if, for example, Greenland's massive ice sheet were to
melt.
"The consequences would be catastrophic," said Jonathan Overpeck, director
of the Institute for the Study of Planet Earth at the University of Arizona
in Tucson. "Even with a small sea level rise, we're going to destroy whole
nations and their cultures that have existed for thousands of years."
Overpeck and his colleagues have used computer models to create a series of
maps that show how susceptible coastal cities and island countries are to
the sea rising at different levels. The maps show that a 1-meter (3-foot)
rise would swamp cities all along the U.S. eastern seaboard. A 6-meter
(20-foot) sea level rise would submerge a large part of Florida.
Uncertainties
Just as the evidence is irrefutable that temperatures have risen in the last
century, it's also well established that carbon dioxide in the Earth's
atmosphere has increased about 30 percent, enhancing the atmosphere's
ability to trap heat.
The exact link, if any, between the increase in carbon dioxide emissions and
the higher temperatures is still under debate.
Most scientists believe that humans, by burning fossil fuels such as coal
and petroleum, are largely to blame for the increase in carbon dioxide. But
some scientists also point to natural causes, such as volcanic activity.
"Many uncertainties surround global warming," said Ronald Stouffer at the
U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Geophysical Fluid
Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, New Jersey. "How much of it would still
occur if humans were not modifying the climate in any way?"
The current rate of warning is unprecedented, however. It is apparently the
fastest warming rate in millions of years, suggesting it probably is not a
natural occurrence. And most scientists believe the rise in temperatures
will in fact accelerate. The United Nations-sponsored Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change reported in 2001 that the average temperature is
likely to increase by between 1.4 and 5.8 degrees Celsius (2.5 and 10.4
degrees Fahrenheit) by the year 2100.
The climate change is likely to impact ecosystems, agriculture, and the
spread of disease. An international study published in the science journal
Nature earlier this year predicted that climate change could drive more than
a million species towards extinction by the year 2050.
"Global warming is a serious threat to biodiversity," said Jay Malcolm, a
forestry professor at the University of Toronto. "As climates warm, more
southerly species will begin appearing further north, and species that occur
at lower altitudes will start showing up at higher altitudes … species will
find themselves in habitats where they don't belong."
Underwater
Glaciers and sea ice in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are
already melting at a rapid pace, placing animals like polar bears at risk.
"Polar bears are entirely dependent on sea ice," Malcolm said. "You lose sea
ice, you lose polar bears."
So far, the rise in sea level is because warmer water takes up more room
than colder water, which makes sea levels go up, a process known as thermal
expansion.
"The real question is what's going to happen to Greenland and Antarctica,"
Stouffer said. "That's where the bulk of all the fresh water is tied up."
A recent Nature study suggested that Greenland's ice sheet will begin to
melt if the temperature there rises by 3 degrees Celsius (5.4 degrees
Fahrenheit). That is something many scientists think is likely to happen in
another hundred years.
The complete melting of Greenland would raise sea levels by 7 meters (23
feet). But even a partial melting would cause a one-meter (three-foot) rise.
Such a rise would have a devastating impact on low-lying island countries,
such as the Indian Ocean's Maldives, which would be entirely submerged.
Densely populated areas like the Nile Delta and parts of Bangladesh would
become uninhabitable, potentially driving hundreds of millions of people
>from their land.
A one-meter sea level rise would wreak particular havoc on the Gulf Coast
and eastern seaboard of the United States.
"No one will be free from this," said Overpeck, whose maps show that every
U.S. East Coast city from Boston to Miami would be swamped. A one-meter sea
rise in New Orleans, Overpeck said, would mean "no more Mardi Gras."
Other scientists emphasize that such doomsday scenarios may be hundreds of
years in the future.
"You can't say with any certainty that sea level rises are going to have a
huge impact on society," Stouffer said. "Who knows what the planet will look
like 500 years from now?"
Future Generations
Most climate scientists, however, agree that global warming is a threat that
has gone unchecked for too long.
"Is society aware of the seriousness of climate warning? I don't think so,"
said Marianne Douglas, a geology professor at the University of Toronto. "If
we were, we'd all be leading our lives differently. We'd see a society that
embraced alternative sources of energy, with less dependency on fossil
fuels."
Overpeck says passing on the problem of global warming to future generations
is like ignoring a government budget deficit. "Except with the deficit,
there are economic mechanisms that could be put in place to get out of the
large deficit," he said. "With sea level rise, there's really no
technological way to put the ice back on Greenland."

Man Turns Earth Into a Microwave Oven:
http://omega.twoday.net/stories/189645/
Excerpt:
Also with the introduction of the wireless systems an increased warming has
been recognized. By about 1920 the low frequency long waves had been
introduced, followed in 1940 by the higher frequencies of the short waves
and in about 1959 by the very much higher frequencies of the microwaves. Is
there a causal connection between the wireless systems and the warming of
the earth? The heating effect of the technical radiation can today be
expected to be common knowledge. It is also known that the higher the
frequencies the richer the energy and the higher the warming effect of the
technical radiation (as in a microwave–oven). With the introduction of the
high frequency mobile telephones, the satellites and the HAARP, it must
therefore be expected that the entire atmosphere between the earth and the
ionosphere, which begins approximately at 80–100 km above sea level, will be
warmed in a similar way to that in microwave–ovens. The HAARP is even using
focussed and pulsated radiation with which the ionosphere literally is being
melted into the form of a mirror from which the radiation can again be
reflected back to earth for what ever purpose—could it be shadowing and
mind–control of the people?
With the application of microwave technology not only the atmosphere is
heated up, but also the waters of the seas. Thus new sea and air currents
come into existence which become ever more noticeable and thus interfere
with the climatic conditions on the earth. We must remember the ever growing
typhoons and tornadoes going on new paths, the increasing floods and tidal
waves, the changes of direction of the sea currents, the El Ninos, the
increasing earth quakes, etc.
With this kind of heating up of the biosphere, we get exactly the same
situation as in a microwave–oven except that the heating is not so
intensive. The warming occurs by an unnatural process, by friction from
within to without, and not by the gentle transformation of red light and
conduction from without to within as happens in nature. The technical way by
the unnatural radiation, e.g. the microwave, therefore, damages and destroys
all substances and matters which are warmed in this way. They become
poisonous, detrimental and cancerous. The body cannot restore them back into
healthy states again. They lawfully have to be decomposed and discarded by
the body. Likewise, warmth caused in such an unnatural way is also
unhealthy, as for example the warmth generated from infrared beamers.
Thus technically created warmth has not only an effect on the climate, but
also, and in a far more disastrous and unpredictable way, on the health of
nature, animals and mankind.
