Seas up; lands down......?

Scientific research now puts it, that if Greenland Ice (which is only 10% of the total world Ice shelves) melts away, sea levels world round will rise by seven meters (23 feet); which eventually means (if accurate) that if the poles melt entirely, sea levels will increase by 70 meters. No joke; really scary; something to reflect seriously upon.

This would really be the first chapter of the end of the world as we know it. Indeed! The continental coastlines we've always known haven't changed for at least 4000 years; i.e. even before the days of Abraham, and it seems we're destined to be the generation that witnesses the kind of changes of the proportion that probably last occurred in Noah's time. I find this as equally honoring as it is troubling.

Now that we know this is a presently irreversible process, owed to whatever factor; what are your fears, and what precautions do you suggest that individuals and governments take, well in advance of the inevitable results?

  1. It simply will not happen. As seas rise the ocean currents slow and the warm water at the equator will not circulate and the earth will cool. ie: Ice age.
