Milo	yes it's right, and it is a 'rite' as well. I ask that you don't get to the point of worrying too much though. It is real, and we should pay attention. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jennlupe	First of all the temperture of the panet has only gone up 1! uno degree in the past 2000 years. This is no time to panic as nothing is going to happen. It doesn't hurt to buy cleaner burning fuels and autos and recycle and do things to protect our planet and environment. But The planet flooding is a blown bunch of hooey derived by the governmental environmentalists to instill fear in us. You are safe. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Biran_Sefar	Indigenous people all around the world typically make decisions on what to do not only with regard to how it will effect them, but also how it will effect their descendants for several generations. Modern society, however, is much more short-sighted: the attitude is typically one of "Since it won't effect me now, then I don't care." However, anyone who plans on having children, particularly if they hope that someday their children will have children should be greatly concerned. The world is already in a great state of crisis in many areas around the globe. However, those of us who live in the wealthy nations exist in such luxury comparatively speaking to the rest of the world that we don't even see what a mess the world already is. It is true then that we probably will not suffer the consequences of global warming all that much even though perhaps the weather will be a bit more extreme from time to time. However, we are in the process of making this world an unbelievable hell for our grandchildren and their children in the future. The threat of global warming goes far beyond simple drowning. While coastal regions will flood more frequently(and only eventually be submerged), the main consequences of unrestrained global warming will include lack of drinkable water, crop loss from drought, increased disease and famine, and finally warfare over dwindling resources.

mrcricket1932	There have been 2 reports from our scientific elites.. one indicating it hasn't been this warm for 400 years and another stating 2000 years. Allows the question to be brought up, what caused the temperature to increase at either of those times.. apparently there were no auto emissions nor aerosols.. why would the temp rise during those times??? Suggesting this is a normal phenomena which occurs quite cyclically. The coral reefs which turn white during these episodes have been traced back to reveal this to be a recurring event on our globe. Dating back millenia. Worrying about it will do nothing but continue to make you very uncomfortable. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ed	Right? It's up to you, personally I am not worried. We have screwed the earth up. And at some point in time our race will pay the ultimate price, extinction. You can't stop it, so roll with it, if your a Christian look forward to spending an eternity where it won't matter anyway. Death is not the end, it is another begining.

emm	Global warming is a reality. Scientists aren't being overly reactionary in saying this, but they're being criticized in an attempt to debunk and disempower their message. A lot of people [especially the powers that be] don't want to bite the bullet and look at how industrial society in the last 100 years has influenced the earth. Think $$. It's been happening for some time already. Look at all the species that are dying off because of climate change, or the melting of the ice caps. A lot of it can be traced back to unsustainable &/or thoughtless lifestyles (driving a car 2 blocks to get a newspaper when you could walk, buying food off season, excessive plastic everything, etc) -- An entire American society whose infastructure is completely, utterly dependent on oil to operate? [$$$ over the enviornement?] Anyway...unless you live in a coastal city, drowning isn't going to be the big issue. Try famines, increased droughts/extreme weather changes, and pandemic illnesses. Seriously. This stuff is being supressed by the mainstream because they don't want people to panic. Do some research and empower yourself. See the new Al Gore film "An Inconvienient Truth" for starters. Is he really all that radical? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

starting over	I think if there is that much global warming there will also be evaporation. It will not happen overnight, therefore I would think that everyone can move to higher ground. Drowning due to global warming should not be a major worry in your life. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

red lyn	yes if only everybody worried about it and done something about it also we wouldn't signicantly lower the risk Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

anonymousenlightenedgirl	I do think we shoud be worried. If not for ourselves, for our children and future generations. We need to start to put an end to it now. We cannot continue to ignore it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

tonyintoronto@rogers.com	We are not going to drown but Polar Bears are because there is not enough ice anymore for them to walk on while hunting for food. They are literally drowning and are bone skinny.It's sad to see. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mesperanto	What's up? Can't you swim? Why not buy some water wings or arm-bands now before the shops run out? Don't leave it too late. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

hazeldavies2006@btinternet.com	Its not that we need to worry it's the fact we should worry about our next generation who will live here after we die. They are the ones that are going to suffer the consequencies of what we and previous generations have done. Knowing that we are aware of whats happening or is going to happen and we could have, if not stopped it at least delayed it, I believe we will be there downfall and they will resent us for that. We are obviously partly to blame for this. All the rubbish we burn the cars we drive etc... We have speeded up the process. We need to do something about it or it will definately be too late. Are children and our childrens, children will suffer for our mistakes. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mommymonster	Um...no. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jaredtcampbell	A.) the polar ice caps wouldnt comletely cover the earth....B.) learn how to swim, or make a raft...thats up to you Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

minizila2002	No, cause basicly the south east of englans going to be floded and thats a part of the country we could all do without :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Simon	Not wrong, really, but ridiculous. If, and that's a great big IF, it does happen its not going to be for a good hundred years and we'll all be wonderfully dead and lying underneath the flood. I'm not worried about it at all. The only reason it seems as bad and imminent as it does is because the democrats in the US want to make as many things look bad during the Bush presidency. It really isn't a problem yet. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lightningfastfords	well i used to think there was nothing to it but guess what your right , was watching a national Geo or something and the IT showed a frozen block of ice that thas never before ever melted sine the beginning and this piece tha broke off was 125 miles long 1,000 feet thick and 25 miles wide and yes this is global warming now this piece is melting and breaking into pieces and raising the ocean levels and causing over whelming waves like Katrina type and each hear there getting worse yes there is something to fear but just depends right now where you live, great question Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

KP	Well nothing is "RITE" to worry about ;) . But no it is not right to worry. What is the reason in worrying? If you believe in God you know that he will never flood the world again. If you believe in reincarnation then you will just die and be well... reincarnated. If you believe we are just here and have no purpose well then you shouldn't worry about dying because then your life is meaningless anyways. Oh and I studied a fair amount of natural and biological science in college. There is no proof of global warming. However we were told that if you come up with an idea that is unique hold on to it and study it. These scientists/meterologists push this topic because it keeps bringing in the money. They support the issue and write grants to study global warming and in turn collect money for their studies. IT GIVES THEM A JOB. Make sense? Makes sense to me. People will say anything or believe anything if it means money in their pocket. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ChrisS	Sure its OK to worry but don't get too obsessed with thinking about it all the time. Enjoy your life while you can and have fun. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

J	There are many, many, many more things to be more worried about than global warming. Global warring is a bigger worry. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

damnutz2000	By the time water levels get that high we'll be all dead and gone. It's the future of the human race that people are worried about. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Andy P	Not for about 200-300 years dood. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ash	Adaptation and Change is constant. Whether it is weather, or other phenomenon. Unless it is like totally "world-ending" ... we'll adapt. But we should do whatever we can to preserve the life and system we have, yet still be able to adapt to whatever can come our way. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

compuhookup	Being a believer in the Bible, but not being over-religious I have to say "live your life". How many people have worried about natural , disasters, the end of the world or any other unpredictable catastrophie. My opinion is that we shouldn't worry about negative things we have no control over. Worrying causes stress and stress leads to all kinds of health concerns. Worry about the things that you can control like getting to school or work everyday and let God control the world. Nothing is as bad as it seems, but anticipation of the negative things in the world will do more damage to you by literally poisoning your mind. Weather patterns have changed throughout history. If you want to do something about it try and do your part to make this world a better place and support others in the same. If we do all drown in a big flood we won't be alone and we will be the last of humankind standing. You were chosen to be on the earth at this time for a reason and it's not to worry. Good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Gatherer	As my mother told me. Ok, so if you worried about it.....would it change anything???? Worrying doesn't help anything. It just gives you a headache. Can u do anything about it? If you can - then do it. If not - then there are way too many other things to have to worry about in life. Put that one on the back burner. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

smoot	It is indeed rite to be worried about global warming. And, it is also rite to be worried that we ALL COULD DROWN! But wait, there's more: it is extra RITE to worry that a comet could smash into earth an vaporize us ALL, plus the ANIMALS, and even the ENTIRE PLANET!!!!! Furthermore, it is eminently RITE to worry that your town could take your property away, and give it to a rich developer to build luxury condos on so they could get even richer! Then, it is also super RITE to worry that a huge hurricane will come, and destroy all the luxury condos, and the government will raise YOUR taxes so that the rich owners can rebuild! There's a lot to worry about. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jack @	yeah everyone should worry about. if they did the world would be a better place. It's because no one worries about it that we HAVE to worry about it NOW and in the future Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

preismyhero	As humans we will be able to adapt to whatever nature throws at us. That is why we are better than animals. If it is really going to happen someone is figuring out how to deal with it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♪♫jessy♫♪	dont believe it will happen anytime soon hun. scientist find all these ways on how we are going to die..the sun will blow up, because it is too old. we are overdue for a magnetic field change, which could kill us, the ozone will deteriate and we will all burn to death. dont worry about any of it. enjoy life :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
