23x the original number.

82,000/23=3,565.2

3,565.2 years is still a lot of time.

Replied before you edited your post.

I looked it up and there is tons of contradictory information…

One article says 5,000 years.

Another says 500.

And yet another says 10.

And your saying 55.

Which is correct???

Things I believe are false:

  • Storms increasing in severity due to increase in temperature
    Wrong - this is increasingly firmly established
  • Ocean levels will rise 60-200ft if all ice melts
    Wrong. And why would you be so foolish?? (And it's over 200 ft)
  • A mere .1 degree increase will have catastrophic effects
    Strawman. It's a rise of very many 0.1 degrees that is the concern.
  • A mere .1 degree increase over the course of 100 years is urgent
    Strawman combined with a scenario unrelated to the real world
  • Humans are a direct cause of Climate Change
    Wrong - there is no significant doubt about this.

Congratulations - you have scored 1/10. Don't say I am not generous.

The dumbest one is disbelieving the sea level rise that would occur if all the ice melted. This is simple arithmetic from direct observations of how much ice there is. Are you not aware of that?

I am not saying 55, actually. I am using your own flawed notion of a calculation, to show you that you are not being accurate even when following your own logic. Also, I can already guess that when you say "I looked it up" that the answers you found are not directly comparable at all. You looked up what, exactly?

Climate change = increased heat = increased severity of storms and ice melting. Ice melting = raised sea levels = Florida go bye bye. Increased heat = thousands of species go extinct. These facts are undeniable.

Absurd or not, if all the ice on antarctica melts it raises the level by 60 feet. I made it fractionally over 60 feet.

You have it wrong. Most of the ice in the world is in Antarctica - 1/12 of the world's land, covered by ice averaging 2160 meters deep (peak depth 4776 meters). It accounts for most of the 70m of sea level rise that all the ice melting would cause.

I don’t think you realize just how much water those massive ice caps are.

Prove it.

    Strawman. It's a rise of very many 0.1 degrees that is the concern.

Which has been happening for millions of years.

  • A mere .1 degree increase over the course of 100 years is urgent

This is very much related to the real world, people are saying it is urgent right now.

  • Humans are a direct cause of Climate Change
    Wrong - there is no significant doubt about this.

Then it should have increased dramatically in the 1800s, which—last I checked—isn’t in your charts.

Congratulations - you have scored 1/10. Don't say I am not generous.

Show this math then.

Dude, Antartica is huge. Same thing with the North Pole. Also 100-200 feet is nothing to the ocean, but it would be devastation for us.

Also go to any .gov or .org site and look up what happens if temperature increases. I don’t know what sites you get your info from but surly they can’t be trusted if they are saying that crap.

Climate change started in the 1800’s due to the Industrial Revolution, but it was so little smog compared to today. Our factories and power plants release so much more emissions then those coal factories did, and that’s not even considering cars! Do you know how many people drive??? A lot! Hundreds of millions of people drive! That’s a lot of smog, so much more than any textile factory could have produced.

If you are so concerned, stop buying electronics. You should see how much smoke is created just for the internet to run.

Of course I’m concerned, but there’s not much I can do. I just stated that to refute your “why didn’t we have a lot of climate change in the 1800’s statement”.
Avatar of AbyssalSludge

This goes for anyone on the opposing side. If you are so concerned about the climate, you wouldn’t buy electronics.

That’s why we should work on making cleaner electronics to save the planet

You know rising sea levels is a problem for Florida, those areas by the bay might not be there in 50-100 years
Avatar of Sobrukai
And I don’t think anyone could stand Florida getting hotter.
