As far as rising sea level, that article is nonsense. Come on, a single datum is enough to contradict a huge pile of other data? Think about this. Average global temperatures have risen a couple of degrees C over the past century for whatever reason.

There is conflicting evidence on this. It is not a firmly established fact that global tempetures have increased in the past century.

Ok, I have gone over basic facts here, what is my point? The point is that global climate is a dynamically stable entity. It is large and complex and can only be described in terms of chaos theory. So here is a large, complex and only dimly understood system and we are throwing large amounts of a chemical that could quite likely be instrumental in determining the balance into the air.

Its large a complex and dimly understood. So because of dimly understood and conflicting evidence you want to take actions that will cost trillions of dollars?
