Answer 3

Let's see:

Published, unsubstantiated statement intended to scare others?  Check.

Measurable, financial damage as a direct result of said statement?  Check.

This should be fun....you can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater.

Answer 4

I'm afraid not. I'm flattered that you found it necessary to post a copycat question, but saddened that you couldn't find something scientific.

You post dailytech (sad) and I post the Royal Society, which is the British version of our National Academy of Sciences. I see your tactic is to yell louder so that reality is drowned out.

Answer 5

No, but you can add it to the list of lame attempts to win money by greedy people.

Answer 6

That's why people like me make huge donations to Greenpeace everyday because they have the balls to stand up for whats right and good know matter who is suing  them we have it covered.

Answer 7

That's horrible and I hope they win their lawsuit!  That's such BS because the oceans rise 2.8mm a year at best and if the caps melt, they would have to melt really fast to suddenly accelerate the rise to even a foot!  No one could survive such heat anyway and it would also evapoate most of the melting ice as well.

"Our best guess is that thermal expansion accounts for about 0.5 millimeters (.02 inches) per year rise in sea level or five centimeters (2 inches) per 100 years," says Douglas. "If global sea level is rising at more than 20 centimeters (8 inches) per hundred years, then where is the water coming from? Mountain glaciers could account for three or four centimeters (1.2 to 1.6 inches), so that leaves Earth's great ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica. Are they losing or gaining? That's a controversial question."
