Default Ah, Bermuda a paradise island!

What will become of those poor people??
Don't get out the life jackets just yet..
Global warming = sea level rise? Not exactly - Orange Punch : The Orange County Register
Is the beach is still right where it was the last time I was in Bermuda??
(And where it was when Juan de Bermudez was there in 1505)??

There is a variation..
"Sea Level In Bermuda Is Currently Almost A Foot Lower Than It Was 50 Years Ago"??

Yeah if you pick a year when it was high, for your comparison..
But, if you looked at the span between 1958 & 2011, it seems pretty stable.


Using the 5 month average smooths things out a bit.. Seems normal to me..
But, I was there between April 1963 and April 1965, when it was at a peak.
I'm glad I didn't go there on vacation in 1970!! I would have been horrified!


Looking at the weather over the last few thousand years, no one can say climate change isn't real..
It's been happening a long time before we started exhaling CO2..
