You know, just when I think you can't display any more ignorance, you go and prove me wrong. The ocean is not going to rise like a flash flood. Any damn fool will be able to see it rising, if it ever does. Those who drown we can chalk up to natural selection. The species has to ferret out the weak minded, and GW is a perfect tool for that.

Abrupt climate change.
We have been experiencing this for 50 years!

It is the Tsunami's. The ocean level is not getting higher, but it is getting deeper. Every once in awhile some major titanic plates shift and areas may drop a couple feet because of it. Then there is a tital wave of epic porportions, sometimes killing millions in less than a day.

Can you imagine the charts graphs?

Oops, it is confusing mixing science with a dimocrat propaganda campaign.

I'm not saying we should purposely dump CO2 into the atmosphere. I never have. I am saying if we respond to the risks you are concerned about we should at least do it in a way that doesn't create more problems than it may or may not even solve.
This is just one thing on a long list of potential problems that we'll deal with. Before it's all over, we may find out the risks were much lower than feared by activists. There could even be some offsetting benefits.

Not all change is equally dangerous. Yes ruining the economy and lifestyle with unintended consequences of hasty controls is counterproductive but that is not what is planned by responsible environmentalists. Of course before we can practically do anything "Ben cooler, Ben warmer" mindless simplicity must be thoroughly examined and then the real dangers must be considered.
https://www.thethirdpole.net/2017/11...rn-scientists/
.."As global temperatures climb higher, the earth is approaching tipping points that threaten human security, leading scientists – including social scientists – have warned during the UN climate summit in Bonn.
The warning comes as global greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions are projected to rise after three stable years. GHG emissions – mainly carbon dioxide – are warming the earth’s atmosphere, leading to more frequent and more severe floods, storms and droughts, and rising sea levels.
“There is no room for complacency. Climate change is here. It is dangerous. And it is about to get much worse,” said Johan Rockström, executive director of the Stockholm Resilience Centre and Chair of the Earth League – an international network of scientists. “In the last two years, evidence has accumulated that we are now on a collision course with tipping points in the earth system.”

Next Tuesday 3:07 pm
A tipping point occurs when there’s a shift in the state of a system towards a new equilibrium. We’re now facing tipping points in our climate system that could accelerate the dangerous effects of climate change. Natural systems will change, as will human systems. In future we could see the collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, dieback of the Amazon or droughts across the Sahel but also behavioural changes and regional warfare.

Rather than accepting Faux and Anthony Watts, consider
Stephen Hawking
https://futurism.com/stephen-hawking...-irreversible/
Stephen Hawking: We Are Close to the Tipping Point Where Global Warming Becomes Irreversible
A Dire Warning
Famous physicist Stephen Hawking issued a warning to humanity in response to President Donald Trump’s recent decision to withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Agreement. Speaking to BBC News prior to a cosmology conference being held at the University of Cambridge this week in honor of his 75th birthday, Hawking said that Trump’s decision could cause irrevocable harm to the planet.
“We are close to the tipping point where global warming becomes irreversible,” the celebrated scientist told Pallab Ghosh from the BBC. The consequences, he explained, would be truly dire for the planet. “Trump’s action could push the Earth over the brink, to become like Venus, with a temperature of two hundred and fifty degrees, and raining sulphuric acid.”

No one here is a professional, but listening to Harvard educated DRs is more accurate than following witch doctors
