Here we go again.

Britain’s major coastal cities could become uninhabitable because of the climate crisis, a leading scientist today warns.

Sir David King, the chair of the Climate Crisis Advisory Group, says London, Hull and Bristol are among the centres all at risk from rising sea levels.

In a bleak warning, he says that unless global warming can be stopped Britain will witness more extreme weather including intense storms and floods.

This could require moving the capital away from London, he told the Mirror.

“We are an island nation which means the biggest challenge we are face from climate change is rising sea levels and storms at sea.

Fucking hell, run for the hills. Oh, wait a minute. This is from the same charlatans that were telling us that the Maldives would be underwater by now. Not one of their catastrophic predictions has come to pass – on the Internet, your past will never get away. Not one. These people are the equivalent of the nutter on the street corner with the sandwich boards declaring that the end is nigh. They get off on predicting disaster, yet those sea levels will do what they want to do without us. And anyone who thinks they can stop the climate changing needs to be taking their meds.

  1. A ‘leading climate scientist’ makes a prediction? A newspaper astrologer has a better track record. What a joke.

    And as for a splinter group gluing themselves to the M25 to force the government to ‘Insulate all homes’, don’t they know there’s already an extensive program of grants for insulation?

    But that’s what we’ve come to expect from these clueless, witless and hopeless ‘climate activist’ types. They make the game of ‘spot the looney’ far too easy to play.

  2. David King isn’t a climate scientist he is a chemist. He is so completely clueless that he once claimed, in front of a government select committee, that the ice in Antarctica was only 40% as thick as it used to be. To see how preposterous this is you only need to know that there is enough ice on Antarctica to raise global sea levels by 58 metres. So if 60% of it had already gone we would definitely have noticed. King is an ignoramus and a charlatan and can be safely ignored.

  3. It’s almost as if these people have never been to a coastal city, or even a seaside town. Most of the ones I’ve visited have sea walls. If the sea level does rise a few inches it would be a simple matter to add a couple of inches to the top of the wall. Panic over.

    In spite of all the shrieking, GW & therefore a very likely easily-seen Sea Level rise is on the cards – actually already happening, though very slowly.
    Time to start taking action.
    The real solution to GW is that used by the French: Nuclear Power, especially for base-load generation.

    HINT: It’s not a few centimetres, it’s half a metre or even a whole metre … which will cause “problems”

    • DP – thanks for that. I’ve forwarded the link to many of the tremulous scaredies that I know – and I await the vituperative replies. Brightens up the day, doesn’t it?

  6. Greg T, sea level has been rising for thousands of years. The issue is whether man made global warming is making the rate of that rise greater , but as yet there is no evidence of any increase in the rate of sea level rise. Sure, some places experience localised issues but they have nothing to do with global warming.

    If there is no problem, no action is required (although I do agree 100%, nuclear is the way to go)
