“How inappropriate to call this planet Earth when it is quite clearly Ocean.” – Arthur C. Clarke

Tide Gauge Observations Average Rate ~ 1.8 mm/year 0.8 mm/year 2.0 mm/year 3.2 mm/year [Church and White, 2006] ~ 8 inches (20 cm) = 16,000 cubic miles!!! (67,000 cubic km)

WHAT CAUSES CLIMATE CHANGE?

Very well. Give the heretic back his research funding. OK! I believe mankind causes global Warming!

To overturn the world economy based on the musings of a few idiot leftist scientists is just stupid, that’s what Global Warming is all about. -Rush Limbaugh-
