PHILIPPINES 2060, Be prepared!!! Options

[martin_nuke]

By 2060, North and South Pole Ice Sheets and Glaysiers will disappear and the Ocean will rise to 80 meters because of the Global Warming Phenomena.

Holy crapping children of mother nature... Can you show me a pic of Indonesia in 2060? I really wanna know what's gonna be left.

Oh crap. Damn I didn't think global warming was this bad. Filipinos need to migrate to the mountains then.

By the way, do you have any pictures that shows the entire earth after all the ice has melted?

[kurt123]

We had better hope that the Ice Age people are correct.

[Jc2]

I think Philippines should look like this again

It feels so unreal, that I won't believe it until the day it actually happens (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_sad.gif)

nah I know its true and theres no denying it, and I do what i can not to pollute. I dont own a car, i don't turn on the heat inside even though its -0 and snowing outside and i try to limit my electricity consumption.
It is just the thought of it that is so scary and unreal, that i really don't want to think about it.

I've seen the movie also, scary $hit

I refuse to believe this. How do I know that this is not just some fearmonger tactic by people who have nothing better to do than fu-k with people's minds? Whatever, I'm just going on with my life as usual.

I don't believe in such crap...(pardon me)

Some others say seas will only rise 3 ft. by 2100. So Philippines shouldn't lose that much land.

Sea Level Rise of 3 feet by 2100
In the recent past the IPCC projected a sea level rise of 6 inches to 37 inches by 2100. On March 24, 2006 researchers said in a report, Paleoclimatic Evidence for Future Ice-Sheet Instability and Rapid Sea-Level Rise, in the Journal Science that accelerating meltdown of Antarctic and Arctic ice, along with melting Greenland glaciers will increase sea level rise perhaps by more than 3 feet. The scientists say that anticipated Arctic warming of 4 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100, will be at least as warm as it was 130,000 years, when sea level was 20 feet higher.

But some Pacific islands already being affected:

The island state of Kiribati (population, 100,000) is being threatened with rising seas, engulfing homes and crops. These are rising sea levels, surges during sunny weather. Says one islander, "It's nice weather, and all of a sudden water is pouring into your living room. NPR's Living on Earth spotlights a discussion of the threat to Kiribati - Listen to the program or view the transcript

Tuvalu is an island state, comprising a number of low-lying islands, altogether about 1/7th the size of Washington D.C.and located directly east of Australia and north of New Zealand. He told negotiators that his country faces the threat of storm surges that wash directly across the entire island. It is happening now. As the fate of Tuvalu and its 10,000 inhabitants seems hopeless against the encroaching waters, the government of Tuvalu is weighing whether or not to purchase land in another country. Mr. Lauti says, "When a cyclone hits us, there is no place to escape. We cannot climb any mountains or move away to take refuge. It is hard to describe the effects of a cyclonic storm surge when it washes right across our islands. I would not want to wish this experience anyone." (67) .......... Among the small islands of Tuvalu, rising seas have already endangered sacred sites. Rising seas have seeped into some islands' croplands, making it too salty to grow vegetables. Tuvalu farmers are now beginning to grow their taro crops not in traditional pits, but in tin containers filled with compost.

Got above from site on Global Warming. It has alot of info.: http://www.ecobridge.org/content/g_tht.htm
They say Global Warming will bring more disease. Diseases like warm weather. Read this: http://www.jhu.edu/~climate/about_us.htm

whats sad is that, people dont believe a thing but the changes are real, and its happening, here in Canada, its a record for mildest winter...its not even cold anymore like Santa Loco said...its wack! plus Summer is just nasty! like Texas nasty!



I cant believe theres so much ignorant people though who refuse to believe it, its sad for the next generation...

I don't believe in such crap...(pardon me)

global warming is not crap its a real consequence of what we're currently doing to our planet...ignoring a threat will be our own undoing...

Yah! Global warming---i believe. But---3/4 of Phil going underwater??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused.gif)

obviously, the map is an exagerrated simulation but from the global warming rate today, its very possible...



another simulation

North America for example...

Entire Hawaiian islands submerge by 2060?

[Hi Tone]

These are just theories, just like they said this would be the worse hurricane season for the u.s.

Lol I overreacted earlier. I think this melting of the Arctic and Antarctic glaciers will happen in centuries to come not in 50 years.
