As nice as this might be, we still haven't redistributed enough wealth and instituted enough socialism to stop global warming according to Bill Gates (and I'm sure Algore agrees). We must trust these uber wealthy folks as they extol the virtues of a system of government that will help them stay nice and wealthy. Nice try, NASA study.
Am I the only one who read the whole article? Here are some other comments from the authors of the NASA study:
“The good news is that Antarctica is not currently contributing to sea level rise, but is taking 0.23 millimeters per year away,” Zwally said. “But this is also bad news. If the 0.27 millimeters per year of sea level rise attributed to Antarctica in the IPCC report is not really coming from Antarctica, there must be some other contribution to sea level rise that is not accounted for.”
No, I read it all, but what that tells me is: "we can collect data, but we don't really know for sure". However that concept, which is reasonable and I agree with, runs contrary to the alarmists going around throwing out solutions.
I do my best to be personally responsible and clean up after myself and I see that as the solution to many problems. Rich environmentalists flying around to make speeches about using less fossil fuels don't help their cause much, in my opinion.
Let me correct myself. He also owns significant Apple stock and sold CurrentTV so he did some wise investing...my implication that he banked it all on his global warming industry was incorrect.
0.27 millimeters per year? My God! Don't you people realize that at that rate, in a mere thirty-seven thousand years the seas will have risen a full three feet?
We must do something about this before we all die!

Yes, we can never redistribute enough wealth or freeze enough sea water or instituted enough common sense gun control laws for the average LIV.

In the spirit of global warming and because I enjoy sharing a chuckle... Here is 122 seconds worth of perspective, but I warn you, once you watch it, you'll never be able to get those 122 seconds back!

One instance would be AlGore's net worth:
$700,000-$1.9 Million in 2000
$172.5 Million in 2015
What has he done since 2000?
global warming alarmism

Sorry, my bad. Misplaced a digit. Make that thirty-seven hundred. It's far worse than I thought. We might all die before dinner tomorrow.
