    Would you tell this to the citizens of Tuvalu? They've been begging the UN to help them Their country is sinking so badly they've been pleading for years to the Australian government to accept all of their citizens. They're not the only country in the Paciific that is experiencing it.

    Here is just of thounsands of links. Yet this is "fear based crap."

      Here's an advertisement for tourism on Tuvalu Island. If it's sinking so quickly then why advertise for tourists?
      Btw, islands created from atolls all have the problem of the ocean's force continually battering the atolls over time it breaks down and undermines the coral structures and sometime they get wiped out when the coral is so weakened it can no longer hold back the sea. This has nothing to do with global warming and more to do with Tuvalu getting dollars and attention from the UN.

        Why shouldn't they be trying to keep their tourism industry as long as they can?

        Your tourist brochure is not much of an argument against a science study,

        I guess it is kinda something.
        Well, sorta in a way.
        Kinda.
