I live only about 500 feet above sea level. Will melted ice from from the north pole flood my area in my lifetime?
Nathan - not even the wildest nightmares of Al Gore foresee that kind of sea level rise.
I would quite happily buy a house that was only a few feet above sea level and on the sea front. Maybe in the Maldives.

A judge in the UK ruled that Gore must show a waiver before the " Inconvenient Truth" propaganda movie is shown in European schools saying that that ,among 8 other things in the movie and simply not true http://www.second-opinions.co.uk/inconvenient-untruths.html. Why don’t you look for yourself PB before you shoot your hole off…

Under business as usual, 20 feet rise over a bit more than a century.
500 feet above sea level corresponds to the top of Hampstead Heath, the highest ground between the Chilterns and the Urals. So I reckon you’re pretty safe.
Sage: did you make this up yourself, or do you have a source for it? I don’t like Al Gore personally but I don’t like fairytales either.

You think you have problems. I live in an area that is 8 feet under sea level and is protected by levees. Problem is the levees break once in awhile. Of course, the fishing is good.

Never!!! The earth has been warmer in the past than it is now and the sea level has not changed that much.

I don’t believe you’ll have to move anytime soon.
Here is a list of 500 Peer Reviewed Papers on the subject:

These all question the idea of man made global warming.
I gave you a link since the list it too long for this tiny space.
