1.5m Homes At Risk From Melting Sea Ice!

1.5m Homes At Risk From Melting Sea Ice!
OCTOBER 30, 2023
By Paul Homewood

 

A friend spotted this item on Talk TV a couple of weeks ago:
 

https://watch.talk.tv/watch/replay/18841536

The reporter claimed that up to 1.5 million UK properties face the increased risk of flooding because of “rising seas triggered by melting Arctic sea ice”. (At 7.05 am)

They seemingly are not aware that melting sea ice does not contribute to sea level rise!

She has filed a complaint, but Talk TV seem slow in responding. I suggest we all bombard them with complaints as well, it might wake them up!

Check it out by putting some ice in a glass of water and let is stand overnight.  Mark the water level at night and see where it is after the ice has melted. :yowsa:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

The only way melting sea ice could be a threat to 1.5 million homes is if the homes are built out on the ice.

Knowing how anal building codes can be, I doubt that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
