Inconvenient truth:
When the sun rays hit the glaciers, or ice bergs, more than 90% of the sun rays are reflected back up.
When the sun rays hit the oceans, 90% of it is absorbed.
And as the surrounding water of the ice bergs gets warmer, it would speed up the melting of the ice.
Hence, the rate is exponential.
If the temperature increases by 1 at the equator, the north pole would increase by 12 degrees.
Thanks to ocean currents.
If both Greenland and Antarctica completely melts, it would raise the sea level by 40 feet.
1 feet = approximately 30 cm.
40 feet = 30cm X 40 = 1200 cm = 12M.
Ooo...If you are 1.5 M tall...that would be about...8 times your height.
If you are about 1.7 M tall, that would be about 7 times your height.
There is a lot more.

People, better start learning how to swim, just for the sake of surviving one more day.
If you have been ignorant, and not know what global warming is...for starters, the glaciers are melting at an alarming rate.
North pole, might just be the hottest place on earth in the next 50 years, since all the ice would have melted there, and the sea level insanely high there then.
And, glaciers are falling off from ice bergs, EVERY DAY.
Oh wells...
Maybe we should invent a floating city.
I think Japan has already done that.
But i pray, it does not get crushed by the tidal waves.

Here s a link.It shows the contributors of CO2...
America has got to do something quick.
I pray China does not follow suit.
No wonder Al Gore is so disappointed over their performance, i sympathise him.
And his patience and faith is amazing.
He presented the same message a thousand times to many people across the face of this planet.

Thank God he put hope back into me.
There are ways we could reduce our carbon emission to zero.
