The upside of global warming

[Dirk]

An added bonus when sea levels rise is that the coast will be much closer to drive to for a nice day out.

I'll have to move inland soon then.

And when sea level rises the sea kayaking opportunities for me and @numbnuts will be awesome.

That's OK, rub some antibiotic cream on it and you'll be fine.

Note to self: Get the spelling of vernal absolutely right.

Global warmimg loooks up, up and amok.
El Niño is part culprit but the 50% increase in CO2 above the 10 year average is still near 20% above the prior such event

'Another concern in the report is the continuing, mysterious rise of methane levels in the atmosphere, which were also larger than the average over the past ten years. Prof Nisbet says there is a fear of a vicious cycle, where methane drives up temperatures which in turn releases more methane from natural sources'

Surprise, surprise?

This thread is about then upsides, not a discussion about the the realities, or otherwise, of man made climate change.

The next upside. As sea levels rise Chez Drago will become a seaside residence!

I live on top of a hill, my house will be an island, gonna make for really boring rides though,

 

[Drago]

It'll improve your kayaking life though. Shaun should start work in a KayakChat forum immediately.

So no global warming after all then, or something.

Something, definitely.

Was 1°C and frost on the car when I left early for my physio appt. Couldn't wait for today's global warming to kick in.
