Mr Lee Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 For those of you who seek to live a beach life, beware. I wonder how this will affect Cebu City or if it is even true?Cebu seen to lose more coastal areas in 20 years Updated January 21, 2009 12:00 AM Cebu - Scientific findings showed that in a matter of five years, there will be a one-meter rise in sea water level in the whole archipelago.In 10 years, sea level is projected to rise by four meters while recent study shows that in 20 years, almost half of the city of Mandaue and Mactan Island will be wiped out of the map as the sea level once more rises by seven meters --- the alarming effects of global warming and climate change. :any-help: Read the whole story, click the link below. http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?Artic...bCategoryId=107 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mik Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 It's a bogus article. Even the largest "global warming" claim is about 1 cm rise in 5 years. Arctic ice is at 1979 levels and climate has been in a cooling trend for the past decade. Global warming is a scam for government control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do believe that the waters are rising, how much it will rise is debatable, but I sure would not want to live too close to the ocean with shoreline being washed away and the rising sea, be it small or large, only time will tell. I prefer the city or just inland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum Support Old55 Posted January 22, 2009 Forum Support Posted January 22, 2009 Yea, I agree with you but sadly some Filipinos reading this may belive it true. It's a bogus article. Even the largest "global warming" claim is about 1 cm rise in 5 years. Arctic ice is at 1979 levels and climate has been in a cooling trend for the past decade.

Global warming is a scam for government control.I'm amazed when such words come out in complete contradiction to the facts. Amazing how black can be white.From Wiki:-In September 2002, sea ice in the Arctic reached a record minimum[5], 4% lower than any previous September since 1978, and 14% lower than the 1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted January 22, 2009 Forum Support Posted January 22, 2009 On a serious note you are correct John about the ice. In fact the fabled Northwest Passage has become reality. However the ocean rising three feet soon is unlikely. But if it were to become true its Mikes fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
