  • The board respects celestial mechanics (Kepler Rocks!). It's perpendicular to the equator, with an unobstructed exposure to the west. The "waves" start at about 12:00 when the sun crosses the threshold above the board. The challenge was not the sun's azimuth, but altitude, which due to the Earth's tilt requires the scalloped awning's shape to be distorted so the shadow appears correct. Thanks to CBS Outdoor, and PLEASE support the WWF.

  • Too bad ice on land isn't displacing ocean water. Ever heard of Greenland?

  • And for those of you who say god said he will not flood the Earth again, don't understand that god isn't warming this planet, WE ARE! God does not mess with free will, By our free will we pump massive amounts of fossil fuels into our atmosphere. Consequently warming the planet.

  • As in residing on a land mass therefore not affecting the water level. What will be the number of gallons of water affecting the sea levels if it all melted? Lets see, 521,600,000,000,000,000,000. That won't cause a huge impact on the Eco systems around the world affected by the new extra 200 feet of sea level? Wow. With that being said. Most parts of Antarctica remain at a negative thirty seven degrees year round. But we've raise a half degree c in the last decade. We're getting warmer.

  • Ok now. You kids with the Experiment thing, Try one that will be more accurate, Get a glass of water filled to the rim, Suspend a funnel above to glass and put enough ice in the funnel to equal 1.6 percent of the water. Let it melt. Do you really propose the content of the glass will not change? Although mass has been added to the glass? There are an estimated 326,000,000,000,000,000,000 gallons of water on earth. One and six tenths of which are frozen on polar ice caps.

  • Ok peoples, Antarctica has a gigantic land mass underneath all that ice, So no the ice is not displacing the current sea levels at its current state. The land mass is. One ice shelf, the Wordie Ice Shelf along the western coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, has completely disappeared. Another, the Larsen Ice Shelf extending along the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula, has lost a chunk three times the size of Rhode Island. Meaning what? It getting warm enough for ice to melt.

  • @striped321, Saying that Co2 levels rising has many more points of proof, while refuting the fact that ice is melting, contributed by the rising temperature due to rising levels of Co2 in the atmosphere is a little redundant don't you think? What does more Green house gases in our atmosphere mean? more heat. What heat mean? Higher temperatures, What does a change in climate in places that are used to it's niche for the past several thousand years mean? Things will change... Youtube scientists

  • so, just build houses on elevated slabs or stilts, right ? more ocean, more fish, more beach. sounds good to me.

  • Theres not enough land ice...like in greenland,To cause concern either.If all the water under the land masses and all the water in the atmosphere were to fill the surface of the earth ...then we have a problem.But:God said HE would not destroy the earth again in that manner.He put His bow in the sky as a sign of His promise to us.The way in which the earth will be destroyed will be by fire and wind.

  • ...wut.
