:So yes, the segment you just quoted was my understanding of the typical global warming argument, which seems to say that higher temperatures at the poles means a faster increase in sea levels. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding their position, but what I always hear from climatologists in the press is that polar temperatures are their main worry. Maybe you're right -- and I certainly hope that you are -- that polar ice melting would have little effect on sea level. I'm not qualified to judge the facts, but I do attempt to understand both sides, so as not to be duped by propaganda and misinformation. [[User:JDWpianist|JDWpianist]] 13:02, 16 February 2010 (EST)

::You mean like Phil Jones admitting to the [[BBC]] that there hasn't really been any "[[global warming]]" whatsoever in the past 15 years? [http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2010/02/15/global-warming-insignificant-years-admits-uks-climate-scientist/] That kind of being duped? Or the kind of misinformation like the southern pole rapidly loosing ice, but that studies show is rapidly gaining ice in most areas other than the Ross shelf? --<big>[[User:TK|'''ṬK''']]</big><sub>/Admin</sub><sup>[[User_Talk:TK|/Talk]]</sup> 15:57, 16 February 2010 (EST)
