Effects of Global Warming - [Closes 8/4/08]

[-:Undertaker:-]

I really don't think you see how arrogant you are lol. You're acting like a child. I am not scared to have a debate with you, do you not realise how pathetic that sounds? You make yourself sound like an idiot, honestly you do.

You are so ignorant. You are just ignoring the debate about Global Warming and instead trying to debate about whether or not you should debate with me. If you don't want to debate then in future don't slander my posts when you haven't got the backbone to put your point of view across.

Derbyshire is in the centre of the UK and a fair distance from any coast's

I know, I live there. We never get floods, strong winds, snow or strong sunshine. Quite boring really, but then again, I wouldn't want my home to be flooded

I never said you were on the coast now lol anyway it turns out it was an inland sea.

North Derbyshire
It’s difficult to imagine today, but at one time the northern part of Derbyshire was a desert of drifting sand dunes, much like the modern Sahara. Later it was submerged beneath an inland sea.


Finally it fell victim to the Ice Age which, inch by inch, nurtured its great rocky heights and curvaceous valleys.


Thanks to such geological manipulation it’s an area that can rightly claim to be one of the most varied in Britain, with a landscape that rolls out like a multi-layered carpet.

I think the bigger things that people don't realise is in fact the effects that we will have of Global warming which is in our lifetime. Such as the encouragement of mosquitos to Britain due to higher temperatures, or how hard it is going to be to grow crops. Higher temperatures ensue extreme weather effects of either extreme drought, or mass hurricanes and typhoons.

Some people look at it and go, "well mi mum growz cabbagez in her alotment every year, so wot?" But that has nothing to do with it lol. The world needs masses of land to supply food for its population, it's not even enough as it is. Within our lifetime the population of Earth is going to reach well above 15 billion. We cannot sustain this amount of people and so there is going to be mass starvatio.

You have a bucket of water you drop a rock into the water what happens?

- The Water rises!

You take the rock out of the water again what happens?

- The water level lowers

The Polar ice caps melts what happens?

The ice is no longer in the water so the water lowers the melted ice causes the water level to rise again meaning the water level will hardly change at all

(thats my theory )

Lol Dan2nd that doesn't even make sense but I know what you're getting at. If you put an ice cube into a glass of water, the water level will rise. If the ice cube melts, the water level stays the same because the water from the ice cube is only compensating the water level for itself. If that makes sense lol.
The water level will rise a little though because ice is more dense, but that actually has hardly any effect, it'll raise the water level next to nothing.

But the reason your theory can be disproved is that the ice on antarctica is on land lol. Which means every drop that falls into the ocean, will make the sea levels rise.

I don't know why you're admitting to it when it's wrong lol.
