That's all ANYONE can do. You can't stop nature. Egotistical academia nuts think they can, but they are crazy and shouldn't be listened to.
Who said anything about stopping nature, I am talking about planning to deal with future changes, but you seem to think we should sit back and do nothing, so don't worry about it. I am sure nothing bad will come from this and life will continue on like normal.

Let's hear your suggestion. I bet it involves moving out of the affected areas because that is the ONLY thing that CAN BE DONE!
And? Still doesn't change the problem. You can celebrate that it isn't from global warming as you drown where you live or you can actually address the actual issue.
Also, this doesn't mean global warming isn't happening, it just means this might not be the result of global warming, but still no less of a problem.
I guess that debunks the global warmest, that are screaming about this as a global warming thing.
Let's say this happens - the first to notice will be the nations/continents closest to Antarctica as the water disperses further north.
So South Africa, Chile, Argentina, Australia will notice anything of note before it approaches our shores. We will have plenty of time to act from mass episodes of melting ice.
And the only ice the will affect the sea level is the ice above the water. The ice below the water will not add any height to the sea level.
Not happening... too large of a volume of ice above the water is needed to melt over too long a period of time.
ANTARCTIC sea ice has expanded to record levels for April, increasing by more than 110,000sq km a day last month to nine million square kilometres.
The National Snow and Ice Data Centre said the rapid expansion had continued into May and the seasonal cover was now bigger than the record “by a significant margin’’.
Are you not acknowledging the thread you participated in this morning, that you were going on and on about it being caused by global warming.
I was? I am pretty sure I was going on about the difference of land ice and sea ice seeing you were confusing the two.
