Answer 3

imagine the person who has good growth of hair on his head. this is like the present day earth.naturally as the person grows older he starts losing hair from the centre and the bald region so formed should be considered as the water that covers the land. so due to global warming the water level goes up n up which leads to the disappearance of the land one day making the earth a planet with one big ocean and no land and this phenomenon will be learnt by people existing in some other planet[only if life exists other than that on earth]

You can change the height of the floodplane. Cool website!

Dammit, i'm underwater. Not cool..

Answer 6

There are some projections on this site, as well as some good bibiliography links.

My scientific assessment reading through this research is that ;

A. NZ will look wetter...

B. More people further inland will have waterfront views.

Also consider the poor island nation of Kiribati, where the lagoon already floods the country on king tides due to rising sea levels, and their fresh water bores are contaminated with sea water!

Answer 7

the oceans have been rising and falling for millions of years.  it is called tides.  

global warming has been happening for just as long, also.  it is called spring, then summer.

wake up sheep: the global warming theory is a farce.

Answer 8
